to British ships to call in larger numbers than hitherto at Mohammmh. A
company has been formed under the direction of the Mum-u - uj jaro
to work the Upper Karun, and the N a steam launch 63ft. long, has
placed by the company on the Lower Karun to run in connection with

The Mniz-ns-Sultaneh was confirmed in the Chiefship of Mo am ^ er
for another year. He is believed to have entered into partnership wi
Muin-nt-Tujjar, and would have joined the Nizam -us-Sultaneh in construct
the necessary buildings for warehouses, &C., had the latter been re ame

A Vice-Consul was appointed to Mohammerah in the autumn of las ^ '
