G. A. Landmesser, proprietor of the

Market street, takes exception to some
of the sweeping statements which have
been made concerning the character of
his hotel He says he has conducted a
legitimate hotel business, and that the
feature of the establishment to which
Councilmen object; represented but a
small share of the business and of the
receipts. He has not taken out hotel
license to ''outwit the police" but be-
cause he cannot conduct hotel with
out license Mr.. Landmesser states
further that the improvements which
are now in progress at the White Cloud
will entirely eliminate the objection
able feature of the bar trade, and that
the hotel will be conducted as an up
to-date institution at popular prices.
I'VE have always catered to the pop
ular trade" he adds. I'VE have the
second largest hotel in the city, having
eighty guest rooms, and our lunch
counter and cafe feeds between 500 and
600 patrons every day We have en-
deavored to furnish good rooms, with
clean linens and everything up-to-date,
and charge only rs and SO cents for
lodging. | think l may add that we
have succeeded in doing that, and I
know that we have provided accom-
modations which could not be secured
elsewhere for twice the charges we
make. We have no intention either to
evade the law, or to conduct the hotel
in any improper manner"
The White Cloud has a frontage of
sc feet and a depth of 1877 feet, and is
three and half stories in height. 1t
contains sixty rooms for which the
lodging rate is twenty-five cents, and
twenty fifty cent rooms. All are neatly
furnished, and the hotel has a private
electric light plant. Twenty-Five per-
sons are employed about the hotel and
cafe. A force of workmen is rearrang-
ing the ground floor All the wine
rooms in the rear have been torn out.

SERIOUSLY WOUNDED.

COlOred Man Shot Twice in "a Quar-
rel at Warrington Sunday Night.
Brought Here and Taken to q
Hospital.
Thomas Carney, colored man, was
brought to the city last night from
Warrington and taken to the City
Hospital for treatment. He is suf-
fering from two bullet wounds, one in
his left leg and the other in his left
jaw, as a result of a shooting scrape
which occurred at or near Manning
ton, so it is reported, on Sunday night.
While his condition is considered Sc
rious by the attending physicians, yet
there are hopes that he will recover.
On arriving at the hospital the man
was unable to talk freely, as his
tongue had become swollen from the
effects of the wound in his jaw. How
ever. with considerable trouble. he
stated that he got into a quarrel with
another colored fellow of the name
of Coleman, while they were playing
crap, and that his opponent in the
game drew revolver and fired at
him, with the result as stated. 1t is
said that one of the bullets, which
passed through the f1eshy part of his
leg. dropped down into his sock, where
it was found by those who attended
