YORK HOTEL MAN MUST DISMANTLE Gross Is Given Until Next Friday to Make Changes—Found Guilty of Liquor Violation, Alexander Gross, proprietor of the Hotel York, was found guilty of repu- tation and keeping llquor with intent to sell, when arralgned before Judge W. Klett this morning in police court, He was given until next Friday morning to rip out bar fixtures and any partitions which obstruct a clear view of the premises from the street, Judgment in the case will be handed down Friday. Policemen Patrick O'Mara and Thomas Keeney visited the place yes- terday afternoon about b o'clock and seized three partly fillled bottles of whiskey. The bottles were secreted under the flooring of an ice box. Gross pleaded ignorance to the presence of the liquor, offering an explanation that someone, unknown to him, might have placed it there, The police testified that Gross con- ducts a restaurant in the rear of what was formerly a barroom, The bar fix- tures still stand, although the pipes are disconnected. Policeman O'Mard lives nearly across the street from Gross's place, and has watched many drunks going in and out, he testified. Policeman Ifeeney, who found the bottles, offered similar evidence of liquor sales. Policeman W. P. McCue went into the York hotel on other business De- cember 28, and while there saw two drinks of whiskey served, The drinks were downed and evidence destroyed before he could seize it, and in the market even before the price was re- duced, now listing at an unequalled and unexpectedly low price of $1,045 for the touring, eliminates competi- tlon In the so-chlled thousand dollar class, 4.
