PEARL BRYAN'S MURDER.

More of the Man Wanted in Califor-
mia For Murder.
VIENNA, June 12.-The newspapers
of this city are publishing additional
facts regarding the career of Joseph
Blanther, who is suspected of being the
murderer of Mrs. Philopena Lam gfe1dt,
wealthy lady of San Francisco, who
was found dead about the middle of
last month"; the morning after Blanther
had played cards in her room in the
city named.
AT the age of 10 Blanther, while serv-
ing with the Austrian army OF occupa-
tion in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1878
with his company defended the po-
sition of a battery of artillery against a
superior force of insurgents. Of this
company and battery Blanther and one
sergeant escaped inquiry, but all the
others were either killed or wounded.
For this he received the order of the
Iron Crown, being the youngest officer
upon whom this order has been con-
ferred.
Later, at a review of the Vienna gar
rison, Blanther was presented to King
Hurnbert of Italy and received from the
latter the order of the Italian Crown.
Blanther was compelled to leave the
army owing to his heavy debts in 1886
and went to the United States. His
mother has not heard from him since.

Concern and Curiosity.

NEW YORK. June ia special to
the oWrld from Madrid says:
The greatest concern and curiosity
is shown in Spain. especially in politf-
cal and military circles in Madrid for
intelligence Of the movements of Con-
sul-General Lee, in Havana.
All the papers commen5 on his cor
dial relations to General Weyler, his
wary and cautious replies to reporters,
and his prudent remarks on the rela-
tons between Spain and the United
States The impression is gaining
ground in official circles that Consul
General Lee and Minister Taylor will
probably very soon be instructed by
the United States government ito sound
the disposition of General Weyler and
the Spanish government with view
to paving the way for some honorable
pacif1cationi of Cuba, through American
mediation
