Death of am Esteemed and Prominent
 Citizen, For Years one Of Our Largest
 Manufacturer of Carriages.
 Stephen Nj. Wier, aged seventy-four years and nine months, died at his residence, 438 Elm street, about half-past one yesterday morning of Bright's disease. He had been 8 sufferer from this for long time, but WAS not considered in dangerous condition until few days before his death.
 He was well known carriage manufactur- or and one of New Haven's oldest and most respected citizens. When 8 young man he was in the blacksmithing department in the employ of-the late George Hoadley, who car- ried on the carriage manufacturing business. MT. Hoadley's establishment was on the cor- ner of Church and Grown streets, the site of the present Hoadley building. MT. Wier early displayed staunch business qualities and soon started in business in a small way by himself. By strict attention to the car riage manufacture, in which he had estab- lished himself, he soon built up a large busi~ ness and eventually amassed 6 comfortable fortune. His carriage repository on Elm street near Dwight was for long time one of the largest in New Haven and he manufac- tured goods for the Australian and South American markets as well as the domestic.
 About ten years ago. when he was thought to be worth over $1e0,000, he failed. His sudden decline was due to bad endorsements. In this way he lost heavily on paper endorsed by him for the benefit of friends. He had begun anew, however, and had since been gradually regaining his lost ground. He was a deacon in the Calvary Baptist church, and years ago was superintendent of the Sunday school. He few years ago purchased and fitted up a summer residence near Short Beach, where he resided during the summer months with his family. He owned large tract of land connected with it. In his death the city loses valuable citizen and his large number of friends and acquaintances staunch, upright, cherished friend. He leaves a wife and two daughters.
 The funeral services will be held at his late residence on Wednesday afternoon at 9 o,nInnk

WEST HAvEN 1mPROyEmENr.

An Important Business Scheme for the
 Development of Wharf Property
 Hangs Fire.
 A large piece of wharf property in West Haven, from the last bridge on Kimberly avenue to near Gessner & Mars ship yard, was recently bought by Senator James Gra- ham and others, as will be remembered. This gave them large water frontage, which is so difficult to obtain at this time, wharf front age about New Haven being scarce article with view to utilize in part as wharfage for the landing of coal by the company of which Senator Graham is the head. The business is now obliged to be carried on up- on Long wharf, and the change would have been great saving and convienence to the company and of much advantage to West Haven as 0 new and important business in- terest there.
 Considerable interest is manifest in West Haven and other places ss to why work upon the newly acquired West Haven property had been discontinued. It seems that it is CTS. In the purchase of water front the com pany, of course, bought as far out as the channel, but the harbor commissioners drew line at least twenty feet this side of it from the end of their wharVes. This would either stop all landing of vessels or compel the com pany to dig out the channel.
 One of the reasons assigned by the com missioners for their action is that in the course of time the Consolidated road would need a draWbridge over where their tracks cross nearly half mile above, and then the channel will have to be strengthened so as to come in shore about twenty feet farther. It has created considerable comment and West Haven people generally condemn the action of the commissioners.
 It would undoubtedly be a great advan- tage to West Haven to have the, coal company build their warves and yards in the spot in prospect, and West Haven people think they are personally concerned in the matter. It is thought by some that the com missioners may be led to retract or amend their decision. The company owning the wharf frontage intend to establish upon it in addition to the coal business (by means of inducements ofered), important manufaotur- ing interests, which would be of great bene- fit, also, to West Haven's growth

Church Of the Messiah.

Yesterday morning an excellent discourse was preached in the Church of the Messiah by the pastor, Rev. L. H. Squires. The sub ject was "A prophecy of good" In the eve- ming the lecture to young men and women was "Building Castles in the Air." The lecture, like the preceding ones, was valua- ble and instructive and well repaid all who went to the church to hear it. All the ser mons and lectures delivered by Rev. Mir. Squires give unmistakable evidence of deep thought, and are highly prized by those who have had the pleasure of listening to them. Next Sunday evening there will be service of song in the church.

Thursday Evening, December 2T-The
 Chorus to Number Sixty Voices.
 It is nearly if not quite twenty years since the Messiah was given in this city by the old Mendelssohn society. As 8 matter of fact most of the participants in the coming con- cert were very small at that time. It is a matter of considerable interest to know that 6 generation is coming on which will be able to sing oratorio music. Professor Jepson is feeling much elated with the prospect of suo- cess with his little chorus, and when asked what number of singers this city could prob ably furnish to sing oratorio music replied, t'At least one thousand" An interesting number of the Messiah next Thursday even- ing will be the Pastoral symphony on the great organ by Dr. G. J. Stoeckel, professor of music at Yale university. A goodly num- Der of seats, perhaps two hundred, remain unchecked at Loomis' Temple of Music. These will be considerably reduced when all holders of tickets have presented them for reserved cheeks. Everything now bids fair for successful rendering of the great orsto- rio. Tickets may be obtained at Steinert's and Treat 6 Shepard's.

Skating on the Lake.

The ice on Lake Whitney Saturday was thin and shaky, but large number of skaters risked everything to enjoy spin up- on the sharp steel runners. In some places the thin surface bent in waves and cracked as the skaters glided along, but this didn't seem to frighten any of the 150 or more who were there. The cold weather of yesterday has made the ice very firm and now it is comparatively safe in most places. A large crowd will enjoy it to-day.
