MR. BADEN-POWELL (Liverpool, Kirkdale)

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether one of the Foreign Members of the Mixed Tribunals at Alexandria has been lately removed from his post; and, if so, what was the reason for his removal, and who was responsible for his appointment?

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE (Sir JAMES FERGUSSON) (Manchester, N.E.)

One of the Foreign Members of the Mixed Tribunals at Alexandria has lately resigned, but is reported to have withdrawn his resignation. The Foreign Judges in Egypt are appointed by the Egyptian Government on the recommendation of the countries to which they belong.
