HC Deb 09 August 1889 vol 339 c906
MR. BUCHANAN (Edinburgh, W.)

I wish to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can communicate to the House the substance of the Report of Consul Hewett on the outrage committed at Old Calabar on the 25th of February last; and what representations have been made by Her Majesty's Government to the Government of Germany on the subject?

* SIR J. FERGUSSON

Satisfactory explanations have been received from the German Government upon the subject; but it is not considered necessary to present any Papers.
