Question of Third Secretary of State debated in Parliament
The debate centered on whether Dundas held a third Secretary of State role or merely executed part of the duties of an existing office. Speakers argued over legal construction, Burke's Bill spirit, and the right of Dundas and constituents to seat in Parliament amid claims of a new office versus continued duties. The vote followed, with a sizable majority against the motion.

French Directory Refuses Contacts With American Commissioners
Turbulent reports state that the Executive Directory of France bars British agent Swinburne and refuses a passport for Capt. Cotes, aiming to force the United States to drop British trade. Dutch naval fortunes spark reactions as ships are vowed to be rebuilt and named after losses. Protests arise over memorials and public tributes honor fallen seamen, while a royal memorial project progresses. A wrecked schooner Marie Antoinette and recent captures in the West Indies figure among the disruptive events of the era.
