PERSIA IN ANARCHY
BRITISH POLICY OF DRIFTRUSSIA SUPREME IN THE NORTH. THE TREASURY EMPTY. By Tolegrnph—Press Associatlon-Copyri'irht (Rec. August 18, 5.5 p.m.) London, August 17. The Teheran correspondent of "The Times" says Persia has drifted into a state of anarchy, and tho most disquieting feature of the situation id Great Britain's lack of definite policy. Tho Russian troops alone maintain order in the north, which has become a Russian dependency. The Treasury is empty, and bankruptcy is only staved off by small British and Russian doles. Past experience has led Russia to oppose the summoning of fho third Mejliss, which alone is capable of raising tho essential loan. Great Britain's policy of drift is inevitably leading to a British occupation of Southern Persia.
