The subjoot i worthy of reflection, On0iao, Fob, 3, 1874, LOCAL MISCELLANY. A BIG S8CU00F: About throo montha ngo tho Motropolftin Hotel, on the corner of Biate and Washington strects, was openod by the ilrm of George E. Gardnor & Co., undor apparently tho most favorablo auspicos. Tho firm oonsisted of two porsous, Mr. Gardnor himselt and Goorgo D. Hodgon, Into of Notr York, and formeily of Bridgeport, Con,, n8 tho narrative will show, Those individuals were hotol men in ovory sonse of tho'word, know ull tho points, and morcover represonted, nccording to their story, an aggro- gato capital of upwardy of $100,000, and it was thelr Intontlon, so thoy eaid, to mako this hotel thomost agroeablo hostolry in the broad land. Now, in order to excel other struggling con- cerns of this obaracter, it was nccossary of courso to have furnituro of excoedingly fiuo manutfscture, carpots of superior texture, Jllnnon, tixtures, nud_ fino linen, nnd these, muder the magio skill of tho jumor partuor's clocutionary powers, woro ull procured of various morchanta in tho city, to bo pmd for in thirty and sixty dnys, which timo it is customary to allow wealthy and dosirable customers, Having thus purchased everything for their comfort and yegaloment, nnd’ thrown out such sultablo -advertisomnents as would attract tho travolor and tho permanont giost, the houso was soon filled with customers, tho lawdlord, Hodges (for i the meautime Gardunoer had -boen talion slais, audstill lies in acriticnl condition), was iv a continually smuling mood, tho boarders wero ench felicitating him or horseif on the bountiful {ablo sprend av noonday aud night, and, i fact, overything was oxcoplionally prosperous and satisfactory. This stato of alfairs continued untd about thirty days ngo, when it began to be whispered abroad that Hodges did not_pay bis bills witl nstouishing alacrity, sud tho pleasures iu tho gastronomio way nlso suffered quite a sen chango, -and wore. going from bad to worse, ‘Thore was canse for this, a8 prosently appeared from & potition filed iu the courts, asking that the firm of Garduer & Co: bo adjudicated baunk- rupts for tho simple couso of failing to payan dobt, Judgo Bloagott bad, in tho wcantime, thrown n protectivo shiold over Lolel-keopors by deciding, in the caso of Gardnoer & Gould, that they could not be thrown into baukruptoy likko ordinary beings for this cause, but ouly whero n fraudulent intent was apparont. Tho proceod- inga waro theroforo stayed, aud Hodgos breathod onsy again. Thoro was Jittle improvoment In the fare, however, and tho boarders, who only folt a romtiveinterostin thequnntlonof eolvenoy, aud & much more active one in the mattor of cookery, growled loudly for bottor fare. Duus algo thronged tho corridors at all Lours, and thingse altogother bogan to wear a bad loolr. Al noon yoatordny tlie matker culminated in a grand donouoment whioh has oaused o fever of excitemont among the creditors aud boardera of the botol. At this hour it was discovered that the Hodges family, who livad in the house, had disapponred, and it was said that Hodges had sold out the furnituro and leass for £40,000, and, to neo tho exprossion of the hotel-clork, “had skipped tho town.” Yestordsy afornoon a morchanis’ matinoe wos held “upon the ‘premises, oroditors by the score, havin got wind of the nffair, coming in witl thelr hills made up to dato, and ready to soizo anything seizablo, ‘Tho condition of affaire dovoloped tipen oxnumination is truly o do- plorable one, ~ Hodgos, who seems to havo pos- Besed an inepiration ot sharp practice, is chargod with baving collected bills iu ndvance of hin boarders, and swindling the servants out of their wages, and, it is said, having accumulated & sum estimated as high as $50,000, has disposed of hisleaso to the firm of Roland & Bwift, aud takon lis doparturo to unknown quarters. It is reported thav before loaving he alio emptied tho sufo of its contents, and that ono of the servant girls saw Mra, Hodgos tucking away au immenso pilo of greonbacks m that peculinily feminine savings bank whoro cotton is frequently stored. Various stories aroalso told as to his former habite. One individual, whoprofessed to know, eays that Hodgoes slorted a hiouse af Bridgoport, Conn,, with- tho munificont cxpital of $00,and, having run in debt for several thou- eand, fook Jeavo in the same abrupt manuor, leaving the nutmeg-manufacturers in somo sur- prise, Anotlier man, not to be bohind-hand in abusing the departed, called him a dead-beat by profoesion. Ho Lind, ho waid, played tho samo amo in Naw Yotk and overywherc olse ho went. fiiu had oxpected it. Among the Lieaviest credi- tors of the firm are Hale & Bro.,, who have large bill for furniture, and Pardridge & Co., ‘who have anunsottled account for carpets. Tield & Loiter also have & small bill for linen, ete. The person who formerly counted the hotel pinno amougst bis stock in trade was around Iast ovening to oxtract his lnst noto from it. It was not o greenbaok. Tho servants, who have for somo deyvs been fu a state of insurrec- tion, are highly indignant, and threaten violonco to Hodges if tiiey catck him. The now proprie- tors, who took possession last evoning, wero vory reticont as to whabt arrangoments had been made, if aoy, with (0dgos, but said the loaso had’ boon irausfer- rod to thom, and that they would hold the furni- ture until sued. If thoy had to pay_for it thoy -would, but at any rate thoy 1wtonded to go on and rin the houso in good style.: 1t is proper to state that Mr, Gardnor, tho senior of the firm, living on Wabash avenue, has beon sick since the hiotol was oponed. His condition is 8o pre- carious that he ia not able to attend to any bugi- ness, and it is doubt{ul if he will racover at all. Ho formerly kopt tho cigar-stand in the Gardnor House, aud, it is suid, furnishod the capital of &600 with which the Motropolitan was startod. e A NORTH SIDE ROLLING-MILLS. The difficulty betwoon the proprictors of the North Chicago Rolling-Mills and the workmen therein is not yet mdjusted on & permavent basig. The mills resumod work Monday, aund will continuo until the hands present their reso- lutions to the Company. Tho differont gangs of skilled workmon have differont socloties, tho puddlers, heaters, rollors, oto., all having dis- tinct organizations. T m‘y will meet sop- aratoly, and each Baclety will propare » 8ot of rosolutions to present to tho Company. Should the latter accept their propositions, the work will go on without intor- ruption, and n considerablo addition will he madoto tho force. The puddlers, howover, havo been working on n fixed senle fora long timo, aud in their caso no change ia contom- plated by tho men or the propriotors. They nre paid so much por ton, and the sum yaries with, and ia oatablished by, tho Yittuburgh card-rates for iron, excopt that the rate bore is 25 conts per ton higher than in Pittsburgh, For inatance, when the card rato for iron is 83{ ccuts per pound, the puddlors here get &7 por ton, and for overy variation of 3¢ of a cent por.pound for iron, there js & corresponding variation of 25 conts por ton in the puddlers’ wages. This ohango is not considered after tho 10th. of the montu, but should o change oceur before the 10th, the pay-roll for the month is mado out ao- curdlng to tho change then made. The other workmon are also paid by the ton, bus the ecale is based upon the rate recely horo, and not upon the Piutsburgh oard-ratos. Tho average for tho month is taken, aud the scale then fixed, In consequence, the men can- not tell what their wages will bo until the end of tho montkh, snco 8alo on tho last day might considerably affect the averago. Whon rails soll for 805 por ton, ono class of heaters receive 60 conts aud anothor class 60 cente por ton for heat~ ing, and a variation of 81 in the prico makes a varlation of 1 cont in the wagos. “Tho Company has not yot put on_a full forco, but expects to do 8o soon if avorythiug is fuvor- able, Thore aro at presont sixtoen hoaters, ho- tweon sixty and seventy puddlers, twonty to twonty-fivo rollors, and botwoen 800 and '400 goueral laborers. —_— ORIMINAL.
