§ MR. BELLINGHAMasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, If it is a fact that, under the auspices of the Social Democratic Club, the "Freiheit" has reappeared as an English instead of a German newspaper; whether Herr Most's famous article on the Assassination of the Tsar, for which he has been prosecuted by the Government, has been reprinted in English under the title of Regina v. Most; whether the paper states that the publication is intended as an answer to the attempt to suppress "our German contemporary;" and, whether Her Majesty's Government intend to take any steps in the matter?
§ SIR WILLIAM HARCOURTI believe that there is such a paper as that alluded to by the hon. Member's Question, and that an English translation of the article referred to did appear in that paper. The article professes to appear in the form of a report of the proceedings in the Bow Street Police Court. In answer to the last Question, I have to say that I do not think it desirable to take any steps in this matter—at all events, until after the trial of Most.
