THE BREACH OF PRIVILEGE.
SIR GEORGE CLIFFORD'S REPLY.
[by telegraph.—special correspondent ] Wellington, Monday. Iv the House of Representatives to-day the Prime Minister (Sir Joseph Ward) read the following letter which he had received from Sir George Clifford, chairman of the Racing Commission: —"l was somewhat surprised to find that in the draft report of the Gaming Commission submitted to yon on Thursday we had inadvertently trenched upon some of the recognised privileges of the House. Hid we been accurately conversant with them we should have taken care to state our opinions in a form which would have been technically in order.—Yours obediently. Geo. Clifford." The correspondence was not discussed. .
