that submarines should be ruled out Of
civilized" warfare, and that the float
ing mine should go with them.

1t is a we'll known fact that
as an Investment the Merchants
hotel was a failure, and the
stockholders of the company
which owned the property
never have received directly
one penny by way of profit ol
the money which they had put
into it. But with commendable

tinued to operate the hotel tor

is there to assert that the whole
people were not benefited oy

hotel in the town?
Now that the original stock
holders in the company have a
chance to get back a part of this
money which they hil invested
in an Improbable public enter
prise it would be unreasonable
to suppose that they will not do
it, ana it should not be expect

money into a hotel without
