character yet bound together by results, marked the night of
January the twenty-third. On that night the blackest fog within a
four years' memory fell upon certain portions of London, and also
on that night came the first announcement of the border risings
against the Persian government in the province of Khorasan the
announcement that, speculated upon, even smiled at, at the time,
assumed such significance in the light of after events. At eight
o'clock the news spread through the House of Commons; but at nine
men in the inner lobbies were gossiping, not so much upon how far
Russia, while ostensibly upholding the Shah, had pulled the strings
by which the insurgents danced, as upon the manner in which the
'St. Geotge's Gazette', the Tory evening newspaper, had seized upon
the incident and shaken it in the faces of the government.
