Soonested alliance of Persia. Please see your telegram No. 393. Any
diffiJnHv of ffivintr arms and men is, I venture to suggest, insignificant as com-
T f rnt5n ppf of seeing Goltz or others in Persia raising a force against
rt atLro P uT communication with Baghdad. Of . military situation in
Turkev I have no knowledge but I cannot help suggesting that if lurks can

and Sesmet fheycouldmake 7 on Persia aJ very serious attack or one which
Russian troops that Grand Duke is ready to send could not deal with assis
by presence of our own forces at Baghdad.

Clear line To-day situation is shaping a little better. Shah received
to-dav the Russian Minister and was much less insistent on withdrawal from
Karei of troops. It would be most expeditious nevertheless in order to appease
public opinion and to (re-assure ?) Shah that a commencement of withdrawal
should be made. A moderate detachment should, however, remain since
Germans, Mujahidin, Austrians, etc., would return, if troops were withdrawn
completely before Farman Farma has situation in hand and we should revert
to situation that prevailed before their arrival in the vicinity.
