MR. GRAY

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether Mr. Clifford Lloyd has in any cases substituted for the whip in ordinary use in Egypt for purposes of punishment a cat-o'-nine-tails with the thongs loaded with metal?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

I have not heard the report, and I do not believe it; but a copy of the Question has been sent to the Acting Consul General at Cairo.

MR. GRAY

said, that he would repeat the Question on a future day.
