LONDON HOTELS CROWDED.
As a Result Prices of Rooms Soar
 Forty Per Cent.

London, Nov. 1.-Hotel accommo- dations in London are becoming a serious problem. The government has taken over a number of well known hotels for various war bureaus and two of the largest clubs in the city re- gently were commandeered.
 The result of this demand for room has been a marked rise in prices. One of the better hotels, patronized largely by Americans and Canadians, had just announced an increase of forty per cent. in the price of all rooms.
 Cafe prices are following the up ward trend, and the greatest com plairt heard is that the size of the portions decreases as rapidly as the price moves upward.
