As Minister for Foreign Affairs was absent from
Petr ogr ad yesterday I sent him. an a.ide-memo ire embody
ing your telegram llo r 1563 and Tehran telegram llo r 258 r
On my speaking to him. again this morning on the
subject His Excellency said that I might assure you
that Russian Government were taking necessary steps
to send reinforcements required and that they would
do so with the least possible delay. He could not tel
me exact number but he would let me have details as soon
as he received them from the Minister of \!ar.
On his alluding to the aide-memoire of which I
telegraphed contents in my telegram No, 1053 I ex
pressed regret that at a moment like the present His
Excellency should have vetoed recruiting of small force
by His Majesty's Consul-General at Meshed, Minister
for Foreign Affairs replied that in view of the steps
taken by the Governor-General of Turkestan it was
unnecessary,adding that he did not suppose we would
sanction the creation of Russian force at Bushire,
I replied that situation was at present too critical
tor either of us to raise objections that implied
want of confidence in other.
Sent to Tehran,
