Hon. D. TISDALE.
I think a little inquiry in regard to dates may be of interest here. The general order has no date, but it must have been issued some time before the regimental order. The general order is the order changing the usual practice and providing for the sending of noncommissioned officers from London instead of from Toronto. An apparently good reason is given for that by the Minister of Militia-the fact that the permanent corps at Toronto has been ordered to Halifax-

As definite as possible, but in figures ; (3) the estimated expenditures of the war office, if they have it, on these men and all other expenses, if they have it, connected with the maintenance of the establishment and the pay, or in any way connected with the garrison ; (4) the estimated expenditures of the cost of the number of men who are to be substituted and their incidentals ; (5) the estimated expenditures of the fortifications themselves for the year. I think we are entitled to this Information and that is all I wish.

Mr. TISDALE.
I would like to add a word to what the hon. member for North Toronto (Mr. Foster) has said on two lines. The first and most particular information we want is as to the expenditures past and present. I will try to give a little summary so that the minister may have the information prepared as far as he can obtain it : (1) the number of men kept by the British government in these two garrisons ; (2) the number. of men the department propose to ask the House to confirm and the number they propose to substitute. Iu all possibility it may be much less or much more.
