NO PROSPECTIVE TENANT.
Treasury Rejects Two Offers for
Grand Hotel Lease.

There is no prospective tenant Of the
Grand Hotel property. Chief Clerk VII
meth of the Treasury Department. Gus
todian of this government realty. to-
day rejected offers of two applicants
for the lease. There are therefore now
no applications pending.
The Grand Hotel company is stIll In
possession. although not longer op-
Grating the premises as hotel. Its
rent ceased April IS. and it is not dis
turbed. as there is no especial occa-
sion TO Gust IT. The company has some
possessions still in the hotel, and there
is no disposition TO impose any hard
ship unnecessarily to make it vacate
the place.
The present prospect is that the prem
Uses will remain vacant for time.
Whether the rentals offered were in
adequate or whether some other mo-
tive prompted the rejection of offers is
not disclosed by Chief Clerk Wilmeth
The offers were considerably lower
than the former rental, which was to
be expected with the refusal of the
government longer TO permit bar TO
be operated or liquor sold on the prem
Uses.
