THE NEW HOTEL.

terday.

The new RYAN hotel was declared open
for business yesterday morning and before

zens anxious to eat the first public dinner
set out in the hotel, but there was also a
large number from abroad. Of course there
is some delay in completing the hotel, and
several of the minor details are not yet I'M
iShed and the furniture for the rotunda is not
yet in place. But as far as anything thatap-
pertained to the comfort of the guests was
concerned. the vast establishment with its
army of help moved as smoothly as we'll

Among the prominent visitors at the ho-
tel last evening were Col. A. Allen and his

rs possible.
