MR. T. M. HEALYasked the Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs whether the Government had any confirmation of a telegram in the Daily News as to the roasting and mutilation of a priest in the island of Crete?
*MR. CURZONWe received a telegram this morning that an attack had been made by a body of Mussulmans upon a Christian monastery, and that 399 several of the inmates had been killed, including three monks; but there is no mention of the roasting of a priest, or the incident to which the hon. Member referred.
*MR. CURZONWe are very fully informed by our representatives there of any incidents of which they are personally cognizant, and if anything so deplorable has happened I have no doubt we shall have early notice of it by telegraph.
