Icame to worst, there would have been
plenty Of force ready to back up the hint.
This function Of protecting the hotel
from worthless checks is only one of the
manifold duties of the hotel detective,
especially in a New York hotel. To he
sure, every good hotel of size in any pa II
OF the country has its trained sleuth TO
watch out for its welfare, but it is in New
York that he fourishes. This is readily
attributable to the cosmopolitan trade at
tracted to the metropolis of the Western
world, and because the sharpest and most
skilful of every profession, trade and busi
ness, from the ministry to crookdom, make
the big city their mecca.
The one instance of Mr.. Randolph's
check will serve, however, to dispel in
large measure the impression created in
the minds of large portion Of the hotel
visiting population that the hotel de-
tective Is casual person, whose time is
spent in dressing well and lounging at
his ease about the corridors.
There are hundreds of smooth. oily con-
hdence men and outriders for crooked
houses. who live off the men Of
means from out Of town who go to New
York either on business or for pleasure.
Naturally these human birds of prey hunt
out, or at least attempt to hunt out, their
victims in the big hotels like the Waldorf
Astoria, the Astor, the Knickerbocker,
the Holland House, the Plaza, or any one
of number of other hostleries well
known for the character of men who put
up in them.
1t is one of the important functions Of
the hotel detective to protect the people in !
the house from sharpers, Of this sort. He Il
must, and usually does, know the greater
number Of this gentry by sight, and when

and knowledge of men. He knew that
Mr.. Randolph was AL right" so he gave
the cashier a signal which no uninitiated
person would notice
Suppose, however. that the detective had
been uncertain of Mr.. Randolph after the
brief scrutiny. The cashier would have
received a different signal and would have
explained apologetically that the hotel
was for the moment short Of petty cash /:
that, in fact, a messenger had just been
despatched to the bank and would return
in half an hour or so. Sorry, but Mr..
Randolph would have to wait.
In the interim the detective would have
teiesraphed to his correspondent in Mr..
Randolph's town, for the hotel detective
in every big New York hotel has a corps
OF men scattered all over the country for
just this purpose. In half an hour the
report would be in the detectives hands
and would have been given to the cashier
So when Mr.. Randolph returned to the
cashier's window his check would either
have been cashed with a smile or else he
would have received a curt refusal.
But let US suppose once more that the
moment the detective laid eyes on Mr..
be had spotted the Southerner
as one of the gentry who prey upon the
check cashins credulity of hotels. In that
case the cashier would have received a
still different signal. Mr.. Randolph's re-
quest would have been refused emphati-
caIy. The detective in such case, how
ever, instead OF wandering away care
lessly would have remained in easy dis
tance, and if Mr.. Randolph had become
ugly the lazy, dolce far niente manner
Of the ordinary looking man would have
