+. P. Douglass May
Go to a New York
Hotel.
HAS AN OPTION ON THE HOUSE.
A New Britain Man is Look
ing for An Opening in
This City.

Franklin P, Douglass, proprietor of
the Bay State house, has an option on
one of New Yorks largest hotels. Mr..
Douglass has recently returned from a
visit to New York city, and in refer
ence to becoming the landlord of a
famous New York hotel, the trip was
made.
To The Spy man last evening, Mr..
Douglass said. 81 will admit that l
have an option on a New York hotel,
but the name must withhold for bust
ness reasons. The option is indefinite,
but am considering the matter and
will probably reach a decision soon.
was summoned to New York, and eff
forts were made to have me purchase
the property at once, but l sought time
to consider.
Should the deal be closed, 1 will own
the fittings of the hotel, and lease the
building and ground upon which it
stands"
When asked whether he would dis
pose of the Bay State house should he
become a New York boniface, Mr.
Douglass said: Il cannot state definite
ly as to that, but it will not be neces-
ship of the Bay State"
Friends of Mr.. Douglass believe that
he will close the New York deal, and
retain his present interests in the local
hotel business. The Bay State house is
one of the best known hostelries in
Massachusetts, and historic interest is
in its interior. For more than a decade
Mr.. Douglass has been in charge, and
among travelling men he is one of the
hoe. IT.,
A Connecticut man figures in another
hotel deal, the preliminaries of which
begun yesterday. Frank A Wise, known
throughout the Nutmeg state as pro-
prietor of Hotel RussWin, in New Brit
ain, made a friendly call upon Clerk
| James T. Duffy at the Commonwealth
| hotel. Mr.. Wise would not object, in
fact, his friends assert that he is eager
to locate in this city.
The United States hotel was the piece
| of property most interesting to Mr..
Wise. The nearness of the house to the
depot was a favorable thing, but Mr..
| Wise gave no definite decision regard
| ing his plans. 1t is more than possible
that he may arrange terms for q lease
with John E. Day, owner of the prop
| erty.
| Mr.. Wise has an acquaintance among
| travelling men which is said to be ex-
tensive. Before entering the hotel bust
ness he was conductor on Boston &
Albany passenger train, and became a
familiar figure with travelling men. AL
though but a few years proprietor of
Hotel Russwin, Mr.. Wise has made it
one of the best known hotels in Con-
neticut He is owner of many fancy
bred dogs, and has blue ribbon winners
