ANOTHER MAN MISSING.

III. C.. Bracket, late Of the Clark Aouse,
Named as Ansong the 4bsco.ders Yester-
day.
Something of stir was created on the
streets yesterday, by the announcement that
II. @. Bracket, late proprietor of the Clark
house had absconded. Mr.. Bracket left
for Milwaukee about one week ago, to secure
some money to satisfy a mortgage on his
property which fell due Monday. Not
having returned his brother, F. E. Bracket,
took possession of the property under the
foreclosure, and Mr.. Hutchinson was placed
in charge of the house with Mr.. Huber as
chief clerk, and it is understood son of
Mr.. Hutohinson's will act as assistant.
The amount of bills due is said to be
about $4,000, of which 81 300 is for hired
help. MIR. Brackets brother, now in
charge of the house, stoutly denies that his
brother has absconded, and his friends sim
oerely hope that it may prove all right in the
end.
