HC Deb 23 May 1907 vol 174 c1165
SIR J. RANDLES (Cumberland, Cockermouth)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs how many cases are still outstanding with the Russian Government in connection with disputes about ships injured or detained during the Russo-Japanese war.

SIR EDWARD GREY

There are twelve altogether, four of which are pending before the prize court at Libau. In one of the others, His Majesty's Government have proposed arbitration, and the same course will be advocated with regard to the others if they cannot be settled satisfactorily in any other way.
