Please refer to telegram No. 866 of the 18th instant from Bushire. If it
is possible, kindly arrange to have Governor of Gulf Ports met and assisted
as desired. It has been necessary to remove him to India in consequence of
our occupation of Bushire. He should be treated with all respect and consider
ation, as he has been friendly in the past, and he should not be placed under
any restraint but should be informed that he must not without permission
leave Bombay, and quite unobtrusively his movements should be watched.
We have under consideration the question of an allowance for him.

Southern Persia. . .
From secret Persian sources I gather that miUtary authorities, Bushire,
are pushing outposts up towards Ahmedi and that local Khans (having be .)
subventioned have attacked hostile tribes at Borasjun. It , see “® “ e '
action of this kind is playing into the hands of Germans, as it is likely ‘o set
v hole of these regions in a blaze, it has also unques lona J
unfortunate eliect on situation at Shiraz and Ispahan where, accord g
reports from His Majesty’s Consul, our aggressive action has been expioi
by German agents to rouse feelings against us to a reailydan e eros s,
From Tehran point of view moment for such measures 18
have just got new Cabinet
ot obviating German movement and it would b< g p-hinpt pan rptain
them by increasing disorder. I do not indeed thm ’ r we pan out of it
office very long but while it remains we must get wha ^ ^
For instance, dismissal of Governor- General of Ears would 0 g
advantage to us than success in any petty local action.
