The opening up of the Karun river she would doubtless regard sa a measure tending to strengthen England's influence over the South of Persis and to check-mate her advance towards the sos. The Estun river enters the head of the Persian Gulf not far from the months of the Tigris and Euphrates, and waters, through its tributaries, a large part of the South West of Persia. It is, in fact, almost the only important water-course of Persia entering the Persian Gulf. English-trade and English influence would naturally benefit most by the opening of such a river, and the concussion may be locked upon as a successful way by Sir H. Desmond Wolf, who, it was openly said at the time of his appointment, was sent to Toheran to counteract the growing laluance of Russia. After the open manner in which Lord Salisbury acknowledged the concession and praised the Shah for his enlightened policy, he cannot now creditably draw back because of the menaces of Russia. With the im. perfect information supplied by Reator's
