§ CAPTAIN CRAIG (Down, E.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is now in a position-to state the result of his appeal to the Russian Government for compensation to Mr. N. Luxenburg for wrongful arrest and imprisonment; and if he will take the opportunity of the presence in this country of the Russian Minister for Foreign Affairs to lay before him a report of the whole case with a view to favourable consideration by His Excellency.
§ THE PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. J. A. PEASE,) Essex, Saffron WaldenIt was not possible to discuss this matter with the Russian Minister for Foreign Affairs during his visit to this country; but a Note, laying the circumstances before the Russian Government, was sent last month, to which a reply has not yet been received.
