had been paid up. His Majesty's Consul of course kept
the money safely lodged in the Bank and protested to Tehran. No further
demands for refunds were made, but neither was any more money paid in. In
the end of October, acting on private information, His Majesty's Consul
suggested that the matter might be settled by indirectly letting Surusbivan
and Kayanian know that if they paid up the balance due their names would
be removed from the Black List. He believed that they had suffered consi
derably from the stoppage of their business and that the knowledge that it
required only a wave of the pen to restore them to the Black List would suffice
to keep them cut of serious mischief. This proposal was eventually carried
into effect; payment was completed on 80th November, and the removal of the
names of the two firms from the Black List was notilled in His JVlajesty's
Minister's circular telegram of the 24th December.
This man acted as German Agent in Bam, where he flew the German
Tho Nusrat-ui-Muik of j am. over his house and decorated his men
with German badges. He was responsible
for the ill-treatment of the British and Russian News-writers, and also for the
destruction of part of the Indo-European Telegraph Line. He was ordered by
General Sykes to pay a fine of 10,000
tomans

and to be kept in detention in
Kerman until payment was made. He had paid nothing by the time General
Sykes had left and declared his inability to find the money. Many futile
attempts were made from various quarters to induce His Majesty's Consul to
remit or reduce the amount of the fine. Not a penny was paid and the
JNusrat-ul-Mulk continued as a detenu in the Karguzari, where he aroused
much alarm and despondency in the breast of the Kar^uzar by developinff
symptoms of a popular but unpleasant disease.
Towards the end of October the Persian Foreign Minister raised questions
as o is guilt. Happily His Majesty s Minister was able to prevent the matter
going turther, and an arrangement was arrived at in Kerman by which the
iNusrat-ul-Mulk undertook to make payment in kind of 1,000 kharwars of
wheat and barley. His Majesty's Consul accepted this offer and, on 14th
No\ emher, notified that he had no objection to his being released. The grain
