The Burmah Ruby Mines. — In reply to a question by Sir R. Lethbridge in the House of Commons last month as to whether the Government recognised the preferential claim of Messrs. Streeter to a lease of the mines, and whether any report on the subject had lately been received, Sir John Gorst said the Government have never recognised any preferential claim on the part of any person to a lease of the Ruby Mines. Reports had been received, and would be laid on the table when a lease has been granted.
