TIFLIS, April 21.-On account
Of the threatening situation on the
Persian frontier and the urgent de-
mand for reinforcement received
from the commanders of the Russi-

men were sent from here today in
to the disturbed territory.
Owing to the rough country they
will not arrive at the scene OF hos.
tilities for three days.
Reports have been received here
setting forth the critical situation
of a smaller Russian expeditionary
force in Persia which Is menaced by
a vastly superior body Of Persian
brigands.
The Russian troops penetrated
the frontier of the neighborhood OF
Belesuvar, in pursuit Of Kurdish
brigands who had committed depre-
dations in Russian territory. The
Russian commander OF the force
sent out a messenger demanding re-
Inducements OF infantry, artillery
and cavalry.
The Persians. who have been join
ed by warlike tribe OF nOmads,
surround the Russians with numer-
GUS force, and their harsemen have
assumed the offensive. The sending
of Russian reinforcements Is made
particularly difficult by the flooded
condition of the country.
Yesterday the Russian had three
men killed and ten wounded In
various minor engagements with
the Persians.
