gulate all the arrangements relative
to the protection of commerce and
the security of their respective
subjects, as stated in a separate Act
hereunto annexed, concluded between
the respective Plenipotentiaries, and

their public character.
His Majesty the Emperor of all

to observe a perfect reciprocity in
regard to the Consuls or Commer
cial Agents of His Majesty the Shah
of Persia ; in the event of any well-
grounded complaint on the part of

and confer the charge provisionally
on whomsoever he may think proper
