Nothing has been settled in regard to
, the disposition of the U. P. hotel. Mr..
P. o. Perkins of Omaha, the travelling
auditor of the .. P hotel department,
has been here the past few days check
ing up and settling up with Col. Carriers
management. He expects the manager
of the hotel department., Mr.. ]. E. Mar
KEEL, here about the middle of next week
and then decision will be reached. Mr..
Markell has spoken some of taking the
hotel and running it in connection with
the other houses of the system. Several
parties have also offered to lease it. The
guests were wondering where today
breakfast would come from as Col. Car
ter's lease expired then, but the colonel
will run the hotel until it's fate has been
decided. There is a bare possibility thai
the colonel will continue the manage
ment. The system has closed its hotels
at Abilene and other points and there
may be chance of the one here being
closed as the trains carry dining cars
which do away with great deal of the
demand for hotel accommodations.
