§ MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAYI beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has received any in formation with regard to the assault on Mr. T. Hutchinson, a member of the staff of the Indo-European Telegraphs, who was beaten on the head in the Deribasovskaya, one of the busiest thoroughfares in Odessa; and, seeing that Mr. Hutchinson obtained no satisfaction from the local police, what action he proposes to take in the matter.
§ SIR EDWARD GREYI have not yet received any report respecting this incident from His Majesty's Consul General at Odessa, and am therefore at present unable to reply to the second part of the hon. Member's Question, but I will make inquiries.
§ MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAYWill they be made by cable?
§ SIR EDWARD GREYNo; by despatch.
