Neu Cabinet for
Persia, Capital Hears
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, June 19.-The Persian
Legation has been advised that Ales
Sultane, one of Persia's oldest and
ablest statesmen, has been directed to
form a new Cabinet. He is nearly
ninety years old.
There was no information concern
ing the necessity for a new ministry,
but il is believed here to have been due
to the internal troubles Of Persia since
the overthrow of the Car of Russia.
Withdrawal of the influence Of the
Russian court in Teheran has freed
the country from external political
control. and It Is thought various do
nestle elements are seeking TO obtain
the mastery.
