That no big metropolitan hotel can be run at, a profit, or even pay expenses, without a liquor license, Is the declaration of the managers of the Hotel Gotham, which wilt be sold at auction under foreclosure of Judgment on October 13.

Managers of other big hotels point to the Gotham as an object lesson and declare that If the metropolis should ever become "dry," the hotels would be forced to nearly double their rates In order to make a profit.
