PERSIAN CABINET
APPEALS TO GERMANY

pJ bIlttu 1TefS wire.
Teheran, Persia, oct. 1a.-The Per-
sian cabinet Is preparing to appeal to
Germany against England's ultima
tum, which signalizes that Russia and
England are preparing to divide Per-
sia for their own use. 1t is believed
that Germany, Austria and Turkey
acting In concert, will intervene 10
prevent the grab, and thus precipitate
the usliest international complication
that has developed in Europe in
years
England yesterday notified Persia
that unless order is maintained in
England's sphere of influence in Per-
sia, England will occupy the territory
with troops and preserve order
Three months grace is given.
Persia Is notified that. under the
anglo-Russian treaty, she will have
to pay the expenses of the expedition.
1t Is believed that If an English
army enters Persia, it will not leave
without war.
In this England will be backed up
by Russia, for the Car needs a sea-
port perennially free of ice and can
secure such a port only by annexing
portion OF Persia Germany will,
naturally object to such a course.
