A MISSING CLERK.
Joe thinner Disappears, and is Heard
From in the East---SayS He is Bound
for Africa---W Vas Clerk at the Stamm
for Three Years.

Joseph thinner, who has been a clerk
at the Stamm-HOuse for the past three
years, disappeared from the city last
Saturday night and has not been seen
since. 1t is reported that he leaves a
number of creditors, although his debts
do not amount to very large sum.
Z.mmer was a native of Germany, and
smoke German and French fiuently. He
could not speak English when ne came
to Wheeling, but learned rapidly. He
was young man of good address and
made many friends.
The first Inclination his employers
had of his intention to leave was when
the porter at thu hotel came from the
5:45 B. e o. train on Saturday with the
news that thinner had gone to Pitts
burg and would return next day. Sun
day evening Mr.. Stamm received a
telegram stating that he missed the
train end would be down on Monday.
Later in the week he was seen in Phil
adelphia, and Mr.. Stamm received a
telegram advising him to secure a new
clerk. 4 friend of thinner in this city
received "a letter from him dated Wash
sngton, stating that he was on his way
to New York and intended sailing for
Africa.
1t was evidently the intention Of
thinner to deceive his employers as to
his real intention, as he packed two
large grips with clothing and left every
thing in his room in order as though
IL had not sbeen disturbed
