HC Deb 24 July 1893 vol 15 c322
MR. CURZON (Lancashire, Southport)

I bog to ask whether the Government are in a position to make any communication on the present situation of Bangkok; and whether the Siamese reply to the French ultimatum, as published in the papers, is authentic and official?

SIR E. GREY

Yes, Sir; the Siamese reply, as published in the papers, is correct. I have nothing to add to the statements which have appeared in the newspapers. I hope to be in a position to make a further statement on this subject to-morrow.
