Mr. REES

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can give the House any information regarding an outbreak of tribal warfare in North-East Arabia?

The UNDER-SECRETARY for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. McKinnon Wood)

We have recently heard that a force was collected in the North-East of Arabia under Bin Saud with the supposed object of attacking certain Sheikhs in the neighbourhood, but up to the present no further news has been received on the subject.
