Russia has semi-officially denied that it would "soon propose the Duke of Leuchtenberg for the Bulgarian throne." The duke is not named in the dispatch in the Los Angeles Times. The most likely candidate is Nicholas, 4th Duke of Leuchtenberg, first son of Maximilian de Beauharnais, 3rd Duke of Leuchtenberg, and Grand Duchess Maria Nicolaievna of Russia, daughter of Nicholas I.
