NO TRACE OF BERGMAN.
Miss Perry's Betrothed Husband Has Not
Been Located.

Chicago. Nov. 20.-The mysterious
disappearance of G.. A. Bergman con-
tinues to be puzzle to the police de-
partment, Bergman's family and the
relatives of Miss Margaret Perry. the
missing mans betrothed. At Bergman's
home the family were up early hoping
to receive some word of the missing
man. His brother, worn and anxious
looking, appeared at the door when
reporter called, almost before foot had
been placed on the first step Having
expected some word concerning, his
brother. he was visibly disappointed
and in wearied tones announced that no
news had been received by the family.
Among acquaintances of the young
man the occurrence remains ineXpiica-
BILE. That he could have been waylaid
and robbed seems to some to be improb
able, acknowledging at the same time
that had he left the city ii would hardly
be possible for him to escape recogni-
tion. Unable to form any opinion about
the affair they shake their heads Won
derlngly and await developments. Some
thing must surely turn up within few
