KILLED FOR HER jewels
Knight De Blaniher Murdered
Mrs. Phl|ipena Langfelt.
Is AN AUSTRIAN NOBLEMAN
Planned the assassination for Several
Days and Arranged with an Unsus-
pecting Friend TO Pawn the Jewels.
Orders and Titles From Two Soyer-
eigns Found Among His Effects.

San Francisco, May 90 That Joseph
Knight De Blauther, knight of the Italian
royal crown, is the murderer OF Mrs. Phi-
lipena Langfelt, the aged German lady,
who was found IN her apartments on saJur-
day morning last, with her throat cut, Is
now apparently established beyond rea-
sonable doubt.
George Dodge, we'll known architect,
and Intimate friend of Bianther, has CON
fesSed that he had been induced by the ac-
cused men [ o pawn a number OF diamonds,
which had been taken from the rings OF
the dead woman.
That Blanther premeditated the crime
now seems probable, for he arranged with
Dodge for the latter TO conduct the nego-
tiations with the pawnbroker some days be-
fore the murder.
FORGED A FRIENDS NAME.
Blanther also forged the name Of lady
friend Of his To an order authorizing Dodge
10 act as her agent in dealing with tie
pawnbroker. alleging that the lady did not
wish to oappearin the matter and that he was
difidcnt himself.
On the morning after the murder Blanther
met Dodge by appointment and the two
visited the pawnshop were 500 was adj
vanCed on the diamonds. Blanther then
accompanied Dodge TO Oakland, where the
pair separated.
When Dodge learned OF the murder, and
saw a descriptiouiof the missing gems, he
became convinced that Blanther had duped
him, and told the whole story to the police.
The stones were taken from the pawnshop
and have been Identified by Mrs. Langfelt' s
friends as the poperty of the dead woman.
Blanther i s stHl at large. 1t was re-
ported last night that he had been seen in
San Jose, but the stranger answering his
description still ciudes the police Of that
city.
LIE UTENANT IN AUSTRIAN ARMY.
Decorations and documents found among
Blanthers effects SHOW that he was a
,, lieutenant in the army OF Emperor Francis
Joseph, and served with such distinction
That he received, rs tokens OF imperial
favor tleastfour crosses and decorations.
The documents fix his-age at tiirty-seven.
He must have descended from noble
family, as at the age OF nineteen he was
lieutenant in Arcnduke Ludwig Victors
regiment Blanther arrived in the United
States about ten years ago, and has re-
sided III this country continuously ever
since. He resided in New York Chicago,
and numerous towns in Florida. He ar
rived in San Francisco February =.
Interest in the crime iucrea ses, and the
discovery OF Blanthcr's patent of no =
Diity adds a new and peculiar feature
10 the story. 1t is argued that had the
supposed murderer not been a noblcman
he would have paraded his title and decora-
lions, whereas no one, not even his most
intimate friends; suspected that he pos
sessed them. On the other hand, 1t is
possible that Blanther may have made away
with the real owner OF the honors and ap-
propriated his name as we'll as his jewclry.
