Sale Of The Estate Of The Misses Cooper MR. LUNDON (Limerick, E.) To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieu-tenant of Ireland is ho aware that negotiations for sale and purchase as between the Misses Cooper and the tenants on the Knocklong property, in county Limerick, have boon for a long time in progress; have the results of those negotiations been placed before the Estates Commissioners; and, if so, with what results; have Thomas Barry and John M'Grath, evicted tenants on this estate, been as yet reinstated in their farms, or have the Estates Commissioners sent an inspector to make inquiries in regard to their rein-statement; and what wore the recommendations of the inspector, if he has carried out his mission. (Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners inform me that proceedings for the sale of this estate were instituted before them in March last, but the case will not reach its turn to be dealt with for a considerable time. The Commissioners have directed their inspector to inquire into the applications of the two evicted tenants referred to, but the inspector's report has not yet been received.
