WHAT Will HYLAN
DO TO RESTAURANTS
They Are Wondering Down in
Little OF New York

New York, Dec. 21-Any one ia
niliar with the mental vicissitudes OF
the New York hotel and restaurant
man may sympathize Fundamentally
with them at the first tap of twelve
New Years Eve. For at that mo-
ment will begin the most nerve rack
ing hour of doubt imaginable regard
ing the one question which Interests
them from January 2 to December
81 of each year-''What about New
Years Ever"
The interest of the purveyors of
Metropolitan gayety is whetted by the
lean days which have come with war.
They have become periodically
wheatless, meatless, treatless, and al
most sheetless, and now within one
hour after IL O'Clock they must learn
what is what regarding their time
honored annual harvest John Pur-
roy Mitchell, who caused the New
Years Eve revelry to be halted at
one o'clock, thing previously I'M
heard of, ceases to. be mayor of the
city Of New York at midnight on
New Years Eve. John F. Hylan, who
can give any order he chooses in the
i matter, will not become mayor until
minute after IL the following morn
ing, ana ne yesterday refused to dis
cuss what his view of the closing hour
on New Years Eve may be.
So beginning at midnight the hotel
and restaurant men have only to find
Mr.. Hylan and learn If there is the
longed for chance to go over the
highly polished top with refreshments
after one o'clock.
Judge Hylan, in his recent explana-
tons of his life, works and habits.
has made it clear that he retires ear
~, and the hotel mems biggest favor
must be asked of righteous man
called from his sleep in the extreme
dead of Brooklyn night. Two weeks
OF worry stretch before them, to be
followed by one hour such as the pro-
prietors involved have never known.
At the McAlpin yesterday the man
agement stated it would close at one
o'clock or soon thereafter. Last year,
when the closing was fixed at that
time, it was said, 1T was more salts
factory for every one concerned. The
same procedure will be followed at
the Claridge.
