§ MR. J. M. MACLEAN (Cardiff)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies, whether Sir Alfred Milner has been instructed to accept, as a basis for further negotiations, any proposals made by President Kruger for the enfranchisement of the Uitlanders which are in advance of the terms offered by the President at Bloemfontein.
§ MR. J. CHAMBERLAINI have already stated that Her Majesty's Government are awaiting the receipt of despatches reporting the proceedings of the Conference before further instructions are given to the High Commissioner. No proposals other than those made at the Conference have up to the present time been communicated to the High Commissioner.
