BERNHARD DIETZ, 73 years old, a former member of the First Branch City Council, died yesterday morning at the home of his son-in-law, Henry C. Schramm, 2536 East Fayette Street, of pneumonia. His daughter, Mrs. Anna M. Schramm died of the same disease last January 14, and it is thought grief over her death hastened his end.

Mr. Dietz was born in Germany, but came to this country when 17 years old and first settled in Northern Pennsylvania. He moved to Baltimroe and established the Bernhard Dietz Company, which manufactured printing press rollers.

When the Republicans gained control of the city in 1895 Mr. Dietz was elected to the City Council from the Fifth ward and served for eight years. He was president of the Colvin Permanent Building Association for the last 25 years and was a member of the Elks.

A sister, Mrs. Carrie Post, and five grandchildren survive.

Funeral from the Fayette Street address. Burial in Baltimore Cemetery.
