Leaves City Suddenly.
HOTEL ACCOUNT SHORT $4,000.
Authorities Now on the Train of the
Man, Who Was Last Seen at a
Hotel in Omaha.

Mrs. Mary Minter. proprietor Of the
Hotel Marion, has had the county Of
fcers searching for Charles Marion.
who suddenly left the hotel last
Thursday with about 100000 of the no.
tel funds. Sheriff Cummings and
| Deputy Costello traiied the man to
Omaha, but as yet have been unable
to apprehend him.
Marion came to Denison last fall
and for some time worked as q bridge
builder. He stopped at the Marion
hotel and during the winter months
assisted at the hotel, acting as clerk
and doing most of the buying for the
culinary department. About the first
OF the year he entered into partner
ship with Mrs. Minter, renting the ho-
tel property from the Denison I'M
provement company for the year 1916.
Since that time he has been doing
the buying and paying the bills OF the
concern, signing Mrs. Minter's name
to checks, per Charles Marion.
Last Thursday morning he left for
Omaha, ostensibly for the purpose of
securing some girls for Mattresses and
chambermaids at the hostelry. He tel
ephoned Mrs. Minter Thursday eve
ming and told her that he had been
able to hire two girls and asked her
If he should bring them to Dcnison.
Mrs. Alinter was somewhat provoked
with him about the matter as he had
lbot consulted with her in regard to
securing additional help and did not
give her consent to his bringing them
back. He did not return on Friday
and when she banked the receipts that
day she was greatly surprised to find
that he had left the deposit book there
but had not banked the money and
she believes that she is out SOME $500.
Deputy Sheriff Costello spent Friday
and Saturday in Omaha trying to get
trace Of Marion. but was unable to To-
cate him. He found him registered
ct a hotel across from the post office.
but the clerk advised him that he had
settled HIS bill aid left, Air. Cum
mings was in Omaha yesterday and
conferred with the chief OF police and

of the man ana are endcavoring to
