 Pratt Missing With About one Hun
 dred Thousand Dollars-A Woman at
 the Bottom ofIt.
 ANoKA, Minn., April 7.-The doors of the First National bank closed last evening. The eashire is in Canada. The matter has been kept quiet.
 On Friday the bank officers were startled to hear from the Merchant bank of St. Paul that their account was over-drawn over $20,- 900. A trusted messenger was at once dispatched to St. Paul to investigate and the discovery made that Pratt had drawn out about $S, 900 due the bank and over twice as much more on his cashiers check. The bank officers were notified, and, in company with the cashier of the Merchants National bank of St. Paul, and Minneapolis of Pratt's accounts. Enough was learned to show that matters were in bad way and that Pratt is thief to the amount of nearly $100,00 The directors decided to place the bank in the hands of the bank ex- aminer and he will appoint a receiver to set tie the affairs or close up the business.
 MT. Pratt has @ private record which is not at all enviabls, and his scandalous his- tory shows that Q woman who is as pretty as she is wicked is probably the cause of his troubles.
 Most of the stockholders were local busi- ness men. All the money taken on deposit yesterday will be returned in full, but that previously deposited will have to await the settlement Unless matters prove worse than expected the depositors will probably be paid in full
