It is the vote for the general working expenses of the Intercolonial Railway.
This is the only item we want to pass to-night.
Mr. INGRAM.
I expected to hear the hon. member for Westmoreland (Mr. Emerson) defend himself in regard to this letter when he was so brave a short time ago in saying that he was going to defend himself.
You will hear front him likely later on.
Mr. INGRAM.
Now is the time. The hon gentleman (Mr. Emmerson) has been accused of stealing the letter and he has not defended himself.
If the hon. gentleman (Mr. Ingram) will allow me, unless he particularly desires to go on, I would ask the com-mittee'to allow the chairman to report progress and ask leave to sit again.
Progress reported.
On motion of the Minister of Finance, House adjourned at 12 a.m. (Friday).
Friday, April 25, 1902.
