After full and careful hearing and mature deliberation upon the appeal case of George T.

 While there may be licensed saloon keepers in New London less suitable than MT. Salter, their unfitness was not brought out strongly before the commissioners by the Committee of Fifteen.

Although a nonresident, Frank A. Munsey. of magazine fame, has done as much, if not more for the benefit of New London and the people there of than any regular resident. He has erected the most magnificent building in, the city, in fact the only one that gives it a real metropolitan appear ance. It is a building constructed of the best materials and was built with out regard to expense. Erected origi- nally for the manufacture of his many publications, MT Munsey concluded to devote it to other purposes. He con- verted it into hotel that equalled any in the state and, not satisfied with that achievement, he is now having the interior entirely remodelled. and, at an expense of over $200, 00t, he pra- poses to have the Mohican rank with the best hotels in all New England. The changes made by MT. Munsey have given employment to many local work men, and in the tearing-out process high grade material is sold at a low price, enabling the purchasers to use it in other construction work to their benefit and to the encouragement of the building trade. A really first-class hotel is of incalculable benefit to New London.
 MT. Munsey, when he established large department store in New Lon don. reyoutioEized the merchandise business and to the benefit of the whole people. He has. after getting the various grades of merchandise down to live -and-let-live prices, grad ually dropped some of~fhese depart ments to give more room for hotel pur- poses, but retains those that are of ;he greatest benefit of the mass of the people-the grocery, meat and bakery departments.
 People marvel at the immense sum of money MT. Munsey has expended in his big eight-story building, with annex of six stories. in New London, as they are not accustomed to the scale on which MT. Munsey does things. But MT. Munsey is a man of affairs and has faith in the future of New London, and. as the gentleman put it several years ago: This building is my steam yacht and it's pleasure to me and should be satisfying to the people of New London. Besides, there is profit in it for me as well as for New LOndOnerS."
