MR. THORNE
I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether Inspector McCarthy, of Scotland Yard, was instructed to prepare a list of the names of the Russian delegates attending the Russian Conference recently held in London.
MR. GLADSTONE
The Answer is in the negative.
MR. THORNE
Has the attention of the right hon. Gentleman been drawn to the remarkable statement in a paper the other day that the Inspector had told the correspondent of the Daily News that he was instructed to prepare a list of the Russian delegates attending the Conference?
MR. GLADSTONE
I have stated what is the fact.
