§ SIR CHARLES DILKE (Gloucester, Forest of Dean)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it is possible to lay before the House Papers on the exequatur question in Madagascar?
§ *SIR E. GREYNo settlement of this difficult question has yet been arrived at, and, in the opinion of Her Majesty's Government, it would rather prejudice than improve the prospects of an arrangement to lay the Papers at this juncture.
