Persian Disorders: International Incident

In the book “International Incidents for Discussion in Conversation Classes”, in relation to this subject, L. Oppenheim wrote in 1909: The following telegrams, dated from Bushire, appeared in the papers on April 12th, 1909:

“April 10th.

“In view of the sense of insecurity caused by the looting of the Tangistani tribesmen, who will not submit to any control, his Majesty’s cruiser Fox to-day landed a party of bluejackets who are guarding the place. The Tangistanis are now leaving the district.”

“April 11th.

“Before the bluejackets landed from the cruiser Fox yesterday, the British Resident in the Persian Gulf issued a proclamation informing the public that the measure had been forced upon the British authorities in the absence of any authority able to control the Tangistanis or guarantee the safety of British and other foreign subjects. The proclamation added that the bluejackets were being landed solely for the purpose of protecting foreigners and would be withdrawn as soon as security was assured.”

On April 27th the following appeared in the Times from Teheran:

“The advance guard of the Russian expedition to Tabriz left the frontier yesterday. The main body marched this morning. The force numbers 2,600, and consists of four squadrons of Cossacks, two batteries of horse artillery, three battalions of infantry, and a company of pioneers, escorting a large train of provisions.

“The commander of the troops has stringent orders to preserve a pacific attitude, and it is expected that he will halt some distance outside Tabriz, which he will not enter except in case of necessity.

“The Russian and British Legations will to-morrow jointly notify the Persian Government of the action taken and of the motives which prompted the despatch of an armed force into Persian territory.”

A Charmed Life: International Incident

In the book “International Incidents for Discussion in Conversation Classes”, in relation to this subject, L. Oppenheim wrote in 1909: The following appeared in a London evening paper:

“In the list dealt with by Mr Plowden yesterday at Marylebone was a charge against an Italian footman named Pito Conziani, aged twenty-four, giving an address in Grosvenor-square, who was accused of being found drunk and disorderly and using bad language the previous night in Old Quebec-street.

“When the case was reached the accused came forward from a seat at the back of the Court and was placed in front of the dock.

“A consultation immediately took place between the clerk and the magistrate, and as a result Mr Plowden inquired who the accused was.

“Inspector Grace replied that he was, as he represented, in the service of the Italian Ambassador, and he claimed privilege.

“Mr Plowden told the accused he bore a charmed life in this country in certain respects, and ordered him to be discharged.”
