Death by Own Action Marks Bamberg Official's End
Louis Stern, former United States commercial agent at Bamberg, shot himself in the public gardens in a despondent state. He had promoted exports of roofing slate and secured the Bamberg electric road contract but faced financial pressures in St Paul. He left a widow and no children, and his accounts were reportedly in satisfactory condition. Stern, a German native long resident in the United States, had been recalled after a period of morose withdrawal.
