LORD MURRAY’S MARCONISt. London, May 1. Tho House of Lords Committee finds that Lord Murray’s purchase of Marconi’s was a grave error. It was his plain duty to acquaint the new Chief Whip of the purchase for the party funds. He should also have submitted information to the House of Commons Committee.
