ADMINISTRATION REPORT
The principal rival elements were ranged as follows :—
(1) Zair Khadhar of Tangistan in alliance with Ahmed Khan nf
Angali against Shaikh Husein of Chahkntah. 01
(2) Agha Haidar and brothers of Ohaghadak and Tul-i-Siah against tb
inhabitants of Buneh-i-Gaz who were aided by Zair Khadliarof
Tangistan.
(3) Ghazanfar-es-Sultaneh of Borasjun in alliance with Nur Muhammad
Khan of Daliki against Ismail Khan of Shabankareh, father-iu.
law of the former.
(4) Nur Muhammad Khan of Daliki and his brother Husein Be? of
Kunar Takhteh against Mulla Kuli of Kumarij supported 0 by
Ismail Khan of Shabankareh.
(5) Ismail Khan of Shabankareh and Muhammad Khan, Kashkuli
against Agha

of Khisht and other Khisht elements sup
ported by the Daliki Khans.
(6) The late Khurshid Beg of Kumarij against Ali Muhammad the
Kumarij outlaw aided by Muhammad Ali Khan, Kashkuli.
(7) Nasir-ud-Diwan, Kalantar of Kazerun, against Muhammad Ali
Khan, Kashkuli.
(8) Sowlet-ed-Dowleh, Kashgai, with Ayyaz Kikha Darashuri, against
former's half brother Zeigham-ed-Dowleh supported by other
Kashgai Kalanfars and Kawam-ul-Mulk.
Mukhbir-es-Sultaneh announced, in December, that he had appointed the
Governor of the Gulf Ports to the governance of Dashti and Dashtistan, but
the latter declined to accept the responsibility unless provided with a force for
maintaining his authority in collecting revenue. Meanwhile the Governor
General's communications and his attitude towards local Khans betrayed such
ignorance of the elementary facts of the situation as to occasion much scornful
comment amongst local notables who showed no disposition to co-operate.
The Nizam-es-Sultaneh, whose doings are related in the Mohammerah
Administration Report, has not figured in the local politics of Ears during the
year under report: the proscription against him was removed, at the interven
tion of His Majesty^ Legation, in M arch, and he shortly afterwards pledged his
Ears properties (Khisht 6 dang, Daliki 3 dang, Zirah 3 dang, Nabardeh
o dang) to Shaikh Khazal of Mohammerah. The latte^ endeavoured to collect
the revenues of these districts, but with only partial success. The revenue
of the village of Zirah above mentioned in the district of the same name, had
een pledged together with other lands to the Russian Bank in Tehran by the
JNizam, and was one of the items redeemed by the Imperial Bank of Persia,
under circumstances detailed in the Mohammerah report.
The Turko-Italian and Turko-Balkan wars, though thev evoked manifesta
tions ox platomc sympathy on the Arab side of the Gulf, aroused but little
interest on the Persian littoral, the population of which is almost exclusively
