HE leading hotels of San Francisco re properly regarded as barometers of business, the ebb and flow of the tide of travel through their doors in- dicating whether times are good, bad or indifferent. This being the case, the pub- lic will read with genuine interest the statements of the managers of these big | | | We are well satisfied with the situation | | and 100k for a business this*fail that will | | hostelries as to the condition of business | in their line. These declarations are most certainly of a cheering nature and show the vitality of the city. General Warfield of the California re- gards the situation with the utmost sati faction. “Business is good and will be bet- ter,” sald he yesterday. “Notwithstand- ing scares of the Kinyoun order, we are doing well. A year ago I sald that if I never did a better June business I would not complain. At the close of June busi- ness this vear T found that the hotel had done more than $2000 better than in the same month in 18%8. Furthermore, the out- | look js all that could be expected, and I am satisfled that there will be a larger trade this fall and winter than ever be- fore At this early date I have engage- San Fran- realize the remarkable growth of popula- tion and business it will enjog‘ during the rext few years, There is nothing to stop the progress of the city now. but an ap- preciation of the possibilities and the exer- cise of proper enterprise will do much to accelerate our prosperity.” “Our business is excelient,” Hooper, assistant manager of the Occi- dental.

Aside from this, travel to and from the Orient is largely increased, and this will doubtless continue. keep our establishment filled to its best capacity Manager. John C. Kirkpatrick of the Palace is also satisfied that there is noth- ing the matter with San Francisco. “Speaking of hotel business' said he, “gur trade for the first eight months of this year has been 20 per cent better than for the same period t year. Travel across the Pacific is heavy both ways, and that from other directicns is all that could be expected. I should say that by reason of recent improvement and the good con- Gitions that now exist we will have a very lively fall and winter travel. I think we should be well satisfled with affairs. Our guests all seem to have plenty of money and they pay their bills promptly, all of which indicates a prosperous condition generally.” ““This month has been the best we have had in years' said Manager Rich of the Grand. *“‘Busin at any other time during the long period 1 have been connected with the hotel. As an indication of trade it is only necessary to state that there is hardly a night that | we are not short of rooms with which to accommodate our guests. despite the large number we have. Traffic holds up well under all handicaps. The indications are exceptionally m'nmlsm;h for a good fall and winter trade. In short, the situation said George i is highly satisfactory.” Conden | s is heavier, in fact, than | 'GREAT COUNCIL OF RED MEN AND DEGREE OF POCAHONTAS @i e et e e edeb et e Josselyn, Fred- | 1a , F.
