MISSING FOR OVER A MONTH.
Mysterious Disappearance Of Samuel
Wineholt on March II.

wineholt on March Is.
Samuel Wineholt, a middle-aged unmarried
man whose home 10 on Madison street, near the
cable road power-house, has been missing since
March IS and his friends are confident that
something serious has befallen him. Active
search for some clue is being made by his
younger brother, George H. wineholt, who also
lives near the Madison street power-house
On March 10 George Ii. Wineholt gave his
brother, Samuel, a check on the Boston National
bank Tor s5S and came down town with him to
Identify him at the bank. He left him at 8
o'clock in the afternoon and has not seen him
since. The missing man, 1t appears, went on a
spree on the afternoon OF March Is He drew
S. on his brothers check that afternoon. On
the 18th he drew SO more and took a certified
check for the balance, $40. He took this check
to the Mug saloona nd sold IL to the proprietor
taking $40 in cash aud leaving the balance OF so
on deposit there. He dram heavily all that light
and the next day. On the 18th, at the advice of
q friend, he left his watch at Charles Dietz' sa-
loon for safe keeping. The last seen of him by
any OF his friends was ab0ut Il O'Clock that
night whom he left Beede's cafe where he had
been drinking. All efforts to trace him after he
left that place have failed. He had very little
money and no vsluables upon his person, so it
Ia hardly probable that he was killed for his
money. He was in lair circumstances and there
was no known reason why he should take his
own life or disappear.
He was about IS years of age, was five feet nine
inches high, weighed l35, was of dark complex
ion and had dark hair and mustache. He wore
black diagonal cutavay suit, black soft hat
and congress CATERS A small scar on his fore

Butcher Charges His Partners With
Ruving Stolen Maat

On complaint of A. A. Merrill, one of the pro-
prietors of the Crystal Market Company. Caspar
Kossuth and John Kasura, his partners, were
arrested yesterday upon charges of receiving
stolen goods, and Fred Broadbach, young man
employed at H. 9. Bittencourt's meat market,
was arrested for larceny. The story OF the crime
reveals a very unusual state Of affairs. Speaking
OF the affair Merrill said:
Kossuth and Kasura were employed as butch
ers by H. s. Bittencourt Two months ago they
were discharged, and became acquainted with
them. They started q butcher shop on South
Third street, near the corner of Washington, and
induced me to put 500 in the business During
knew was working for Bittencourt, coming
into the shop with a heavy sack of meat on his
back. Finally asked one OF my partners what
it meant, aud he said:
"Oh, he brings it over from Bittencourt's I
can get it from him for about one-fourth the
market price"
/ resolved to leave the business, and did so. /
then consulted an attorney, and afterward in
formed Bittencourt of what had observed.
Even after I went out although 1
could not take my money out, / saw
the young fellow making several trips q week to
the shop with his sack of meat
afterward learned that my two partners and
Broadbach had collected good deal of money
and intended to leave for Texas on Mayl As
soon as learned this had them arrested. De-
tectiye Spriggs worked up the case, and he can
corroborate the statement will set forth The
store is about y, coo in debt They never paid
any bills.
All three defendants were arraigned before
Justice Neagle and were placed under 500 bonds
each pending their hearing today.
