Affairs whether the alleged manufacture of notes in this
country, in the name of Hungary, had been brought to the
notice of her Majesty's Government by the Government of
Austria; and what steps had been taken thereupon by the
order or advice of her Majesty's Government.

ment of Austria. The matter had been refers ed to the
law officers of the Crown, who gave their opinion that the
issue of these notes was illegal, but that it would be impos-
