Disappearance of Henry Sheridan linked to Chicago council probes
Spirited away as grand jury inquiries into the Chicago board of aldermen intensify.

Sheridan reportedly knew sensitive details of how the electric company aimed to monopsonize. Tripp is abroad seeking British capital for a land and mining venture. Sheridan’s absence hinders testimony.
