 Jacob Mitchell the we'll known Washington square meat dealeif would like to know the whereaboutA of one George Schuck of Newark N, J., who until few weeks ago was employed in Mitchell's meat market! One day, about q month ago, Schucls asked his employer for a few days vacation, stating that he wished to visit his mother. It was readily granted When Schuck did not return within week nor notify his employ CT as to his whereabouts the latter became suspicious and started an in- vestigatiOn. The cause of his clerks absence was then revealed. For a month before he left he had been col- lecting small bills, ranging from $1.0O to $10.00, from his employers custom CTS and instead of turning it over t0 the owner, he placed it in his own pocket. MT Mitchell estimates his loss owing to his clerks dishonesty, at about .$150 or $175, a sum which he could i'll afford to lose at this time when the price of meat is so high and the profits are very small. After finding out that his clerk had not been very honest, MT Mitchell went to- Newark to see him, but he was not there. He had been there and had left saying that he was going to re- turn to Waterbury. slB But he has, not from all accounts and probably twill not, MT Mitchell would like to hear from him as he might have something to say to him. Schuck was employed by MT Mitchell for about nine months during which time his employer re- posed much confidence in him, with what result may be gleaned from what has already been written.
