THE REMOUNTS INQUIRY.
CLAIMS OF TL.E COLONIES.
By Telegraph.—Pre3S Association.—
(Received May 25, 5.12 p.m.)
London,' May. 24. The Kemounts Court of Inquiry, presided over by General Robert Biddulph, examined Mr. Copeland, Agent-General for New South Wales, who strongly protested that the colonies did not claim consideration on the ground of a spirit of gratitude for their war services, but wished for business on a basis of mutual advantage. The price for suitable Australian horses had risen at least to £15. The number was limited, and unless the authorities ordered remounts in such a* way as to give time to properly break in horses Imperial receiving depots were essential.
