BRUTALLY ILL-TREATED. London, March 6. In the House of Lords, replying to. Lord Beresford, Lord Newton admitted that the condition of British prisoners employed in German mines was often deplorable. They were worked in parties of twos and threes, scattered over a large area, the circumstances allowing them to be treated with great brutality. Germany usually ex- ! pjained that the prisoners were not worked harder than civilians. Eepiesentations were made to' Borlin when- | ever a case was proved.—Aus.-N.Z. Cablo Assn.
