81 Zone of the largest items of miscel-!
laneous expense connected with the
management of big hotel is the loss
by theft of guests said a prominent
eastern landlord the other day. Il am
interested in string Of hotels along
the lake region, and i see the monthly
accounts of each. The managers talk
ito me about this matter, but there
Seems almost no way to check the loss.
Stealing towels and silver spoons is
not the practice, as you might suppose,
sof the inferior class of guests either in
wealth or birth and breeding. In fact,
the most persistent and daring pirates
of our table silver are the young girls
and women of rich families whose hotel
bills are very large and who would not
think of taking 50-cent piece that did
not belong to them. But they will come
in to supper or lunch, order meal thar
will cost four of them $40 or Sl2, and
then conceal a demi-tasse spoon that
has cost us less than 81 and carry 1t off.
We have checking system by which
the walters are made responsible for
the silyerWare used with the meals they
serve, but this does little good, except
the poor waiter has to pay for what
our guests steal
