MR. RYLANDS

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether there are any Despatches since the 29thday of March from Her Majesty's Consuls in Bosnia and Herzegovina showing what advice they have given to the Turkish authorities of those Provinces with reference to the insurgents; and, if so, whether he will lay them at once upon the Table of the House?

MR. BOURKE

Sir, there are several despatches at the Foreign Office from Her Majesty's Consuls in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the subject of the Question of the hon. Member, and in one of them, dated the 6th of June, Mr. Freeman states that the expedition against the insurgents on the Austro-Croatian frontier had proved unsuccessful, and that the Austrian Government were bound to establish small military posts in the district. The Papers to be presented on the subject are now being prepared.
