With reference to my letter of the 17th of
j lecemher lost, I am directed by secretary air
jw Edward Grey to state, for the information of your
Board, that he has received a telegram from Eis
Majesty’s Minister at 1ehran, reporting that the
Persian Government have informed him officially
that they will not refuse to issue immediate
permission to your Bank to Import and mint silver
whenever the latter applies for such permission,
and that your Manager at iehran considers this
reply quite satisfactory.
Mr. Marling enquires, therefore, whether
he should now inform his Russian colleague that
the question of sharing the mint contract between
the Imperial Bank of Persia and the Banque
d’Sscompte may now be opened with the Persian
Government.
1 am to add that blr Edward Grey proposes to
instruct Mr* Marling that he may proceed as
suggested.
The Manager,
Imperial Bank of Persia,
£5 Abchurch Lane,
E.C.
