The Herald says that the business commu.
nifty of New York was shocked on Thursday by the
report that Mr.. Charles H. Carr, who had been en-
gagged in brokerage transactions for many years past
at No. 80 Broad street, had absconded to Europe
having previously drawn from the bank the sum of
seventeen thousand dollars the property of the firm
of which he was member. The firm suspended
payment yesterday morning; but it is stated that the
interruption of business will only be temporary, the
loss sustained affecting mono but Carr's partners.
Rumors found credence that Mr.. Carr had fled to
Europe and forsaken his wife and family for the pur
pose of joining young actress who left the country
few days previous; but yet these stories rest on
10 positive foundation.
