WOMEN,s HOTEL RATES UP
Martha Washington Hereafter VII
Be Run for Dividends.

Some former guests Of the Hotel Martina
Washington have been actively Interesting tiiei''
selves in its affairs The Martha Washington
has ceased TO be a semi hilanthroplc lnstitu-
ton. and is now run on n purely business basis
That IS what worries the ex-guests- Wnen the
semi-philanthropy became a thing 70 the past
they had to get out
1t was on September that the last touch
of philanthropy disappeared from the Martha
Washington Before that an idea had prevailed
that the purpose of the hotel was to provide
home for working women Of refinement and
small salaries At first it was possible for
woman TO live al the Martha washington for -
a week including room and board, and there
were suites Of two rooms and bath for SIS
week For the last two years the patrons of the
hotel have been gradually disillusiouized as TO
the philanthroptc character Of the esta bIish-
ment and ON September / the final step was
taken. with the result that in the future. so the
manager Mr. Caldwell, said last night, it will
take OF pretty good income to live at
the Martha Washington
We are full he continued. We have turned
fifty people away tonight. and 1 believe II W.
had another hotel Just like il next door we could
fill that too We are a money making corpora
ton. not eIeemOsynary institution There
are plenty of women with money who want sucn
a hotel we have here We are after dlvl-
dends and not catering to the working girl
He explained partly by saying that there are
good many women stockholders in the COM
pany, and women stockholders are as Unsuitable
as men for frequent cash dividends To Increase
these dividends new schedule Of charges was
instituted on the first of last month. The man
agement admits that there is no longer a pos
sibiIity of j woman's living at the Martha Wash
ingtOn for IS a week. The lowest figure now py
the year is SD a week All of the suites are
now SIS 4 week 10y the year. $50 by the season
and 81 a night for transients
When the new prices We're put into effect quite
a number of the guests were forced TO leave the
hotel, because they could not stand the raise
They have not hesitated to tell of their troubles.
and among other things they hal accused the
management Of restricting their privileges n
the matter Of receiving their men friends.
