§ MR. LABOUCHEREasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether he has observed a statement, which appeared in a letter addressed to The Times by Mr. Wilfred Blunt, and which was published by that journal last Monday, that rewards had been given to any person belonging to the "friendly tribes," in the vicinity of Suakin, who brought in a human head; and, whether he will cause inquiry to be made, in order to learn whether there is any foundation for this report; and, if true, who is responsible for this barbarity?
§ LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICENo such information has been received; and until some evidence is adduced in support of Mr. Blunt's statement it does not appear necessary to make any inquiry on the subject.
