Death Of q Leading Citizen at Midnight
Last Night.

At quarter past twelve o'clock this
morning Henry w. Stamm, whose seri-
Gus illness has been often referred to in
the past few weeks, breathed his last at
his residence at the Stamm House in
the sixty-third year of his age. In his
death Wheeling looses one of her oldest
German citizens, the business world a
representative who was known through
out the community as being typical OF
all that was commendable and sue
cessful, and the city man who COM
bined within himself, to an unusual de-
gree, all the traits OF character which go
to make man beloved by his fellowmen.
Sincere regret will follow the announce
ment of his demise, and he, will be
mourned as one stricken down before
his time.
Henry w. Stamm was native OF
Bueding Hesse-Damstadt, Germany,
where he was born in 1928. He
came to America in 1851, remov-
ing at once to Wheeling, and
here he resided without inter-
ruption for forty years. Immediately
after his arrival he secured
position as hotel clerk, and
remained in that capacity until
1858, when he began business
for himself in the present location
of the Stamm House, gradually increas-
ing the size of his excellent hostelrie
until it became one of the leading
hotels Of the city. He married daugh-
ter Of Fred Unruh, Esq, about 1855,
and leaves his wife, daughter and two
sons to mourn his loss. The de-
ceased was member of numerous Ger
man organizations, and was also identi-
fed with a number of business projects,
among them the Park, the Elm Grove
Railroad and the State Fair.
The date of th funeral has not yet
been announced, but will be fixed to-.

Another Stone nrldee Lonn.

After considerable delay, temporizing
with grave situation, tho Council
committee on finance recommends
the submission of another loan to pro-
vide money to pay for the stone bridge
folly. The amount to be asked for is
in round numbers $4,000, and rate Of
interest is to be six per cent.
This is precisely what the ISTELLI-
oEScER said would have to be done
when the effort of the. commissioners
to place the loan resultedin the failure
which they foresaw from the beginning,
Absolutely nothing has been gained by
postponing this second appeal to the
people, and valuable time has been lost.
The secret of the delay was the unwill-
ingness of the stone bridge advocates to
admit that they had made u vital
mistake when they told the people the
money could be raised at four-and-a-halt
per cent.
The Discrimination to admit an I'M
welcome fact has caused the matter to
be much discussed and may prove some
embarrassment to this latest effort to
pull the stone bridge through. The
whole matter has been fine example
