§ SIR ELLIS ASHMEAD-BARTLETTI beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can give any information as to the campaign in the Soudan, especially as to the report that there are European officers with the Dervish forces?
MR. CURZONI am not in a position to make any statement on the subject of the Soudan campaign, but I may say that we have had no confirmation of the rumour referred to.
