Mr. MARK SYKESasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, whether any persons have been arrested in Egypt for endeavouring to join the Turkish forces in Tripoli; and, if so, will he state whether these persons were Ottoman or Egyptian subjects?
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Acland)I have inquired as I promised the hon. Member in reply to his question of the 13th inst.; but I have naturally not yet had time to receive a reply from His Majesty's Agent and Consul-General in Egypt, to whom a dispatch has been addressed on the subject.
