Shuster and his aids had hardly got
their trunks unpacked in Teheran before
there was trouble brewing. Mr.. Shuster,
in his capacity as treasurer general,
signed checks for disbursements. Several
other persons had this privilege before
that. and they resented giving it up. The
Belgian director of customs was one. The
'hecks he signed on the Imperial Bank of
Persia, in defiance of the orders OF par
Lament after Mr.. Shuster's accession,
came back marked IN. c." The Belgian
backed by the Russian minister, made an
awful to do over It, The Belgian en-
ployes I'm the custom house walked out.
The Russian minister declared empheti-
cally that he would introduce Russians to
administer the customs before he would
submit to Mr.. Sbuster's .single-handed
control. The banks and Parliament sup
ported Mr.. Shuster enthusiastically, and
the Russian minister took the count in
the first round.
More trouble followed when Shuster APP
pointed Major C. b. Stokes, the British
military attache at, Teheran, as the head
of an expedition against the deposed
Shah, and also as the head of the treas
ury gendarmerie. This disturbed Anglo
Russian relations Immediately. Then Mr..
Shuster seized the property of the ex-
Shah's brother, who was also a fugitive
with his eyes on the throne. The Rus
sian consul opposed this action, saying
the property was mortgaged to the Rus
sian bank, and backed up his assertion
with his company Of Cossacks. Shuster
let the matter rest over night and then
sent 100 gendarmes under an American
officer. They got the property. 1t turned
out subsequently that the Russian bank
had no claim whatever
The middle of last week the car HIM
self began issuing ultimatums against
Shuster, who had outpointed the Gear 4
representatives. A few days ago 400
Russian troops were massed along the
northern border of Persia, ready to in
wade, and on the 18th of this month Rus
STA severed diplomatic relations with Per
STA. Next came the news that Persia had
satisfied the car temporarily with ar
apology. This was followed by Russia's
peremptory demand for Shuster's removal
