§ SIR A. BORTHWICK (Kensington, S.)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the Aleppo Consulate has confirmed Mr. Barker's accusation against Jed?
§ *SIR J. FERGUSSONThe case is still before the Turkish tribunals, but is being carefully watched by Her Majesty's Embassy at Constantinople and Consulate at Aleppo. It would be obviously improper to make public the opinion of one of Her Majesty's Consuls upon a matter which is still sub judice.
