FOREIGN RESIDENTS
MAKE BRAVE STAND
Persian Troops Are Being
Rushed TO the Rescue of
Russian Consulate.

TEHERAN. Persia. Nov. s.-News
from Ardebil is that the foreign resi-
dents. beseiged in the Russian consulate
by the revolving Shahsevan tribesmen,
are holding out bravely, hoping to make
a successful resistance until the arrival
of re-enfOrcements Seven thousand Per-
sian troops are on their way to ArdebI
travelling by forced marches to relieve
the consulate.
The news that Russian force has
been dispatched TO the relief of the for
eigners in ArdebiI is receiv ed here with
the utmost suspicion. The government
has evidenced distrust of Russia ever
since that country took so active an in
terest in the overthrow of the deposed
shah. and it is now believed that the
MuscoyIte government may have stirred
up the tribesmen in Azerbaijan TO revolt.
in the hope that the uprising would
give them an excuse for armed interVen-
tioQ.
The Persians are making every possi-
bic effort to subdue the revolving tribes
before the Russian forces can reach
the affected territory.

REST STRENGTHENS
NINE. STEINHEIL
Appears in Court This Morn.
ing More Confident of
Securing Acquittal.

PARIS. Nov. S-Madame Steinhen
took her place IN the assize colrt in the
Palais de Justice today. confident that
she viii save her neck from the keen
edge Of the guiHotine's knife by seeur-
ing an acquittal on the charge of muir
dering her husband and mother.
Yesterdays respite from the strain Of
her appearance before a court which
appears unnecessarily vengefUL gave
Madame Steinhen an opportunity to re-
cuperate and she appeared to1ay with
renewed strength.
The position Of the accused woman
today is stronger than it was before the
state began its efforts TO prove her a
lnurderess. She herself says that moth
ing has been proved against her despite
the inquisitoriaI methods OF the presid-
sng judge, who is also her prosecutor
and the testimony OF witnesses mani
testify vengeful-
Act as Boomerang.
Il Is apparent that the bitter argu-
rnents beween the prisoner and judges,
prosecutor and witnesses are defeating
the ends Of justice. The murder Of n.
steinhen and Nine. Jappy is today
shrouded in deeper mystery than It was
before the trial began. Instead OF
throwing light on the crime, the prose-
eution OF the widow is becIouding the
issue.
Today's proceedings opened with
another victory for Nine. Steinhei1 In
A.faa "a IN
physician Of the Stelnheiis, He said
that he was intimately acquainted with
the family life OF the Steinheils and that
he knew that Madame Steinheil cared
most tenderiy for her husband and
mother.
He said that Madame SteinheiL after
the crime had received an anonymous
letter rejecting on the character of her
husband. and that she had refused TO
allow the doctor to soil her husbands
memory by following up the clue
Case Weakening.
That the case Of the state is crumb-
ling became apparent today when NJ
Borderei, admitted lover Of Nine. Stein
he'll, who installed her IN the country
place, Vert LOgis, declared that neither
he nor Nine. Steinhen had ever dreamed
OF marriage as a result OF their re-
.lations. The prosecution has held that
Nine. Steinheil's motive for the muir
der OF her husband was her desire TO
marry Borderel. NJ Borderel will soon
be called to the stand
The prison authorities at the Con
ciergerie St. Lazar. where Nine Stein
he'll is confined, today announced that
q number OF embroideries, the v-GrE Of
the accused woman during her long in2-
prisonment. viii be sold at auction at
the prison soon. The embroideries are
marked with the name Meg Eteinheil, 4"

proceeds of the sale viii assist in the
