Several Reported Arrested—Assembly Votes Confidence in Reza Khan Phelevi.

TEHERAN, Persia, September 29.—Several high officers are reported to have been arrested following the discovery of a plot against the Shah.

The Mejliss, or national assembly, voted confidence in the government, 85 to 12, yesterday, after a spirited debate on the governmental program.

Reza Khan Phelevi was crowned Shah of Persia last April, succeeding Sultan Ahmed Mirza, who was deposed by the Mejliss.
