HC Deb 17 August 1894 vol 28 c1387
MR. BYLES (York, W.R., Shipley)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the Commissioner, Mr. Newton, appointed to inquire into the Victoria incident of July, 1893, in Mashonaland, has completed his inquiries, and when the Report will be laid upon the Table?

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES (Mr. S. BUXTON,) Tower Hamlets, Poplar

We have just received Mr. Newton's Report. I fear that there will not be time to print and circulate it, along with the other Papers relating to the matter, before the House rises. But I will lay the dummy at once, and the Blue Book will be issued and circulated as soon us possible.
