§ SIR ELLIS ASHMEAD-BARTLETT (Sheffield, Ecclesall)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if Her Majesty's Government will direct one of Her Majesty's Consuls in European Turkey to inquire into the alleged massacre of Mussulman villagers by Bulgarian marauders?
MR. CURZONThe question is one for discussion between the Turkish and Bulgarian authorities, and an official investigation on the spot by a British Consular Officer would be out of place unless it were requested by the Porte.
