§ MR. BAXTERasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, If any recent and urgent representations have been made by Her Majesty's Government to the Government of Turkey regarding the necessity, in the interest of a suffering population, and to prevent a civil war, which may end in annexation to Russia, of introducing immediately administrative reforms into Armenia?
§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKELord Dufferin's instructions are to make representations as to Armenia, and we have perfect confidence in the manner in which he has been executing them.
§ SIR H. DRUMMOND WOLFFasked whether any representation had been made by Lord Dufferin as to the introduction into Turkey in Europe of the reforms recommended by the Commission, of which the noble Lord the Member for Calne (Lord Edmond Fitzmaurice) was Chairman?
§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKEI cannot say positively; but my impression is that the subject has been mentioned recently. Perhaps the hon. Member will give Notice of the Question.
