by William +. Paris. He was called
to testify as to conditions around the
Hotel Mumm at Thirty ninth street
and Sixth avenue.
The Prince said that from observa-
tions extending over a period OF six
years he believed tho Hotel Mumm
was . disorderly hotel. Women and
men OF bad character congregated
there, he said. He had observed
many men and women entering and
leaving the hotel without baggage.

that by reason Of tho proximity Of
the Hotel Mumm his property had
depreciated in value and he had been
compelled to reduce his rents. The
