Russian Trade influence Holderness. Confidential
Enclosure. Delhi, January 22nd, 1914. My Lord Marquess,
with reference to your Lordship's telegram of the 17th
November, 1913, we have the honour to submit the following
remarks in regard to the prospect of Russian Trade
competition in Southern Persia. We entirely agree as to the
desirability of taking all reasonable steps to facilitate
ana encourage trade from the south on Bushire Shiraz Ispahan
uine, not only in the interests of Indian Commerce but on
political grounds as a safeguard against Russian trade and
thereby against Russian influence from the north.
Hardinge of Penshurst."
