EDWARD c. sToIBER
is DEAD IN PARIS

Denver Republican.
Edward G. Stoiber. one of Colo
radios best known mining men, died
at Paris, France, yesterday after
short illness from typhoid fever.
The drst announcement was a ca
blegram received at the University
club by DR.. Charles A. Powers, who
was Mr. Stoiber's physician in Den
yer. and as the news spread 1t called
forth expressions of the deepest sor
row.
Mr.. Stoiber, accompanied by Mrs.
Stoiber, left Denver about six weeks
ago to spend few months abroad.
He was then in his usual health. In
fact, for several months prior to go
ing abroad he mad enjoyed better
health than he had for years A year
or more ago he was operated on for
appendicitis. but he recovered entire
ly from its effects.
Edward g. Stoiber made princely
fortune in mining in Colorado. He
did not strike 1t rich," but by his
metallurgical knowledge and perse-
yerance he developed some prospects
into one of the best paying mines in
Colorado. These were the Silver
Lake mines and mills situated near
Silyerton, in San Juan county. He
devoted many years to the develop
ment of this property, and about two
years ago sold the mines to the Gng-
geHheim Exploration company for a
sum of cash amounting, so ii was said
mt the time, to not less than $4,000
900. Prior to selling, the mines had
paid him comfortable fortune, so
that when he retired from the mining
business. to devote a few years to
travel and study, he had an income
equaled by few men In Colorado.
Mr.. Stoiber was a graduate of the
University of Freiburg and other
technical schools of Germany, and his
studying as mining engineer and
expert metallurgist was second to
none in the West. He was the first
in the San Juan country to utilize
electricity for operating mines and
mills, and 1t was his economic meth
DDS In the mining and treatment OF
vast bodies of low grade ore that won
for him the pronounced success OF
the Silver Lake property.
Mrs. Stoiber, who was with her hus
band at the time of death, will ac
company the body TO Denver for bur
ial here.
