SCHAIDT, William H.
Funeral Again Postponed
The remains of the late William H Schaidt, who died in Wyoming, have not yet for some unaccountable delay arrived yet, consequently the funeral has been postponed. Nothing has been heard from them since they were shipped by Mr George Schaidt from Omaha, Nebraska by the Union Pacific Express company. Mr Schaidt left Omaha eighteen hours after the remains of his brother and arrived here this morning. It is supposed that the remains have been delayed at Defiance, Ohio, a terminus of the lines of the Union Pacific Express. They are expected here tonight. The late William H. Schaidt was a miner at Rock Springs, Wyoming, where the recent Chinese troubles occurred. About four o ’clock this afternoon a telegram was received stating that the remains would be here on the seven o’clock train from Wheeling and the funeral will take place tomorrow, (Wednesday) from the residence of John Schaidt, corner Glenn and Decatur streets at 1:45 o’clock p.m
