Two lists naming the Disciples appear in Volume III (pp. 84-5) and Volume IV (pp. 118-119) of The Baha'i World. The lists are not the same. The name of the person at #8 is different, but the photograph is the same. In Vol. III he is listed as Dr Arthur Brauns. In Vol IV he is listed as Albert Schwarz. Both are described as "pioneer worker for the Faith in Germany."
