§ 10. Lieut.-Colonel HOWARD-BURYasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has received a report from the British Agent at Gyantse with regard to the reported flight of the Tashi Lama from Shigatse; whether he has any information with regard to the reasons for his flight; and whether he has gone to India or to China?
§ Mr. PONSONBYThe Tashi Lama fled from Shigatse towards the end of last December. The reason for his flight appears to be a disagreement with the Tibetan Government. His present whereabouts are unknown; he has not entered India, and no intelligence has been received of his having reached China.
