§ MR. J. M. ROBERTSON (Northumberland, Tyneside)I beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the action brought by the Zulu chief Dinuzulu against his late secretary, at Nongomo, in Natal, on the 23rd ultimo, was adjourned sine die in consequence of instructions received from the Colonial Secretary; if so, will he say why such official interference with the ordinary course of justice took place; whether the plaintiff had incurred heavy expense; and what further action the Colonial Secretary proposes to take in the matter.
§ MR. HARCOURTNo official information to this effect has been received. Inquiry is being made of the Governor.
