HC Deb 02 June 1908 vol 189 cc1706-7
MR. MITCHELL-THOMSON

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any official information with regard to the killing of a British subject on board the schooner "Experiment" by shots fired from a Cuban revenue cutter; and whether His Majesty's Government has addressed any representations to the Cuban Government on the subject.

SIR EDWARD GREY

The incident was reported by the Acting Governor of the Bahamas. His Majesty's Minister at Havana was instructed to make representations to the Cuban Government. The matter is, however, not yet settled.
