Attacks Made Daily on Lives Of En-

Calcutta.-The situation In India
has not shown such menace OF seri-
Gus uprising as II does today, for

SHAH CHANGES HIS MIND
PEOPLE MAY CHANGE RULERS
Refusal TO Grant People Of Persia a
Constitution MAY Result In Retire
ment Of Sovereign.

Teheran.-The shah already las re-
pented of his proclamation, posted In
the mosques on Monday, In which II
was set forth that the people, in spite
Of his promises. shall not have a con-
stitution, and during the night he sent
out urgent orders TO withdraw this
proclamation from circulation and to
destroy all copies OF II.
This sudden change OF front on the
part OF the shah is attributed here to
the vigorous representations that un-
doubtedly have been made by the
British and Russian legations. These
powers, II is said, have notified the
shah that he will be held personally
responsible II his refusal to give his
people constitution results in an
archy.
The impression is gaining ground
in non.official circles that the people
of Persia may cut the Gordlan knot
by effecting a change of sovereigns.
There is no hope for Improvement on
the part of the present Official on the
throne
