MR. W. REDMOND (Clare, E.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War if he can state where the Dervish chief Mahmoud now is; and whether he is being treated as a prisoner of war?

The latest information was dated the end of April. Then the chief was at Wady Halfa, and was being treated as a prisoner of war.
