LEIDERMANN WAS MURDERED
Clearing Up the Mystery of the
PHYSICIANS Death

fhySlclan'S Death.
LONDON, March S.-Further facts
have come to light regarding the muir
der of DR.. Leidermann, whose body was
found in ravine near San Reno. and
who was at first supposed either to
have committed suicide or to have
fallen by accident down the ravine.
DR.. Leidermann was a German, and
formerly resided in Manchester. In
December last he engaged quarters at
the National hotel at San Reno, and
paid frequent visits to Monte Carlo
Subsequently two Germans joined the.
doctor at the hotel. and all three depart
ed together. by rail, Dec. 90. On the
evening of the same day the two Ger
mans returned to the hotel withOuS
Leidermann. In response to inquiries
they explained that Leidermann had
suddenly become insane, and had beer
placed in confinement in an asylum at
Nice. That night the two Germans left
the hotel without having given notice
of their departure. The body of DR..
Leidermann was afterwards found
as described. The spine of the MUIR
dered man was broken, and the body
punctured by pin similar to those used
i'll pricking cards at the gaming tables
at Monte Carlo. The pockets of the
dead man had been rifted. 1t was evil
IDENTIFY the intention of the murderers to
give the idea that the deceased had been
ruined by gambling at Monte
Carlo, and that in despera-
tion he had committed suicide.
After fruitless attempts to unravel the
mystery, the San Reno police sent
photograph of the dead man to the Off
cials of Monte Carlo. The police of the
latter place remembered having seen
the deceased gambling in company
with reputed Polish countess and
her German paramOur, and the woman
and her companion were arrested
and sent to San Reno. The theory of
the police is that the alleged countess
decoyed the unfortunate doctor to her
rooms, where he suffered tate similar
to that of Eyraud, in Paris. 1t is not at
all certain that the so-called countess
companion was the actual murderer, the
police being inclined to the belief that
a large gang is implicated in the crime.

liking for her German relatives is caus-
ing a good deal Of discomfort in Eng

messenger to run errands for his royal
mother-in-law, is said to have been
grossly insulted. at place called Sal

sisted in the almost total ignoring of
Battenberg and his pretensions at lit
tie local celebration to which he invited
himself, without being accompanied by
the Princess Beatrice.

MONTE CARLO, March S.-Several in
stances of the futility of trying to
''beat the bank" are recorded here this
week. The first is that of the
Englishman who. a week ago. by
an extraordinary run of luck, won the

satisfied with his success, the winner
continued to tempt fortune. and the re-
suit was that he lost not only all that he
had won, but 915,OO0 besides.
A second case is that of an
English earl, who Monday last won
10000 francs, all of which sum, with
several thousand francs more, has since
passed into the hands of the croupiers.
A third unfortunate is an Italian duke,
whose winnings, if he made any, are
not recorded, but who is known to have
lost within the last few weeks the hand
some fortune of 10000 francs.
