*MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any answer has been received from the Turkish Government in reference to the repayment of the ransom for Mr. Abbott, who was captured by brigands near Salonica.

SIR EDWARD GREY

No answer has yet been received.

*MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

Will the right hon. Gentleman press for an answer?

SIR EDWARD GREY

It will be settled in time. These claims always take a certain time to settle.
