By far the greater number of the Babists attached themselves to him, and he managed, even in imprisonment in Acca, by means of an extensive correspond- ence, to retain the leadership until his death on the 16th of May, 1892. Since then his son, Abbas Effendi, has been the leader of the movement. In 1896 the attention of Europe was widely attracted to the Babists once more when, on May 1st of that year, Shah Nasir-ud-Din was shot by a fanatical Babist as he was enter- ing the mosque in Teheran. ...Connected with this deed were many dangerous political intrigues, especially that of a re- vengeful adventurer, Jamal-ud-Din. The murder of the shah, an act of vengeance for the cruel and bloody persecution of the Babists, was punished by similar persecutions. But relig- ious movements cannot be exterminated by means of the sword and the gallows. It is estimated that fully one million of the 7, 500, 000 inhabitants of Persia are at the present day Babists. Bloody persecutions have again burst over them of late years, for instance, in 1903 in Yezd ; but the Babists meet death as defiantly as ever.
