License Revocation Tabled by
City Council.
CHANGES ARE ORDERED1!
Proprietor Declares Work of Sep
arating Club I'rom Hostelry
Is Already .Started.
The Gnr?n Wffi hotI, ngro cen
ter on North Broadway, wa &a vd
from a license revocation by the rtty
council yesterday on condition that
the hotel be completely divorced from
the Golden West Athletic club, con
ducted In the basement, through con
struction of a separate entrance to
the club. In spfte of police failure to
ehtaln a conviction on gambling
charges (ollowini; a raid on the club
rooms early iri December, the council
sentiment for revocation was strong.
All members of the council de
elared that In spite of flat denials by
W. P. Allen and George P. Moore,
proprietors of the hotel, they were
convinced that gambling had been in
progress in the club. Commissioners
Blgelow and Barbur moved to revoke 1
the hotel license, but by a vote of
Mayor Baker nd Commissioners
Mann and Pier, the matter was laid
on the table for ten days on condi
tion that Immediate steps be taken
to block the entrance from the hotel
lobby to the basement .and that an
outside entrance to the club be pro
vided. Change Declared started.
John II. Stevenson, attorney of the
hotel men, assured the council that
uch steps were already under way.
He and George Moore, one of the
proprietors, had advanced the solu
tion. Mayor Baker and Commissioner
Mann contended that to close the hotel
and clubrooms would be merely scat
tering the negro patrons throughout
th city to cause trouble elsewhere.
Moore assumed a somewhat bellig
erent attitude when testifying. He
said that whenever anything hap
pened in the vicinity of the hotel that
he got the blame for It. In a letter
submitted to Chief of Police Jenkins
relative to the hearing, he had sug
gested that if the police would take
as much pains in raiding any of the
first-class hotels of the city they
would have more law violation evi
dence in their hands than the Golden
West ever yielded.
Signal Device Admitted.
Moore admitted the existence of a
"dimmer" signalling device by which
lights in the club might be turned off
by a push button from above, but de
clared that it was a signal to call the
proprietor which had been installed
when telephone rates got too high.
He explained the show of money on
the table at the time of the police raid
as a search for 1885 pennies for which
someone was paying a premium of 10
rents. Moore said he would not vouch
for the truth of the statement but
was- merely repeating the story as
related to him by one of the negroes
t the table.
The club is not connected with the
hotel organization but is an Incorpo
rated Institution under the state laws
which rents Quarters In the hotel, ac
cording to Moore. Moore and others
connected with the hotel are Included
In the list of club officers.
BID SYSTEM IS REVISED
Contractors Must Make Tenders on
Alternate Contract.
All bidders on large improvement
contracts hereafter will be required
to submit alternative bids on the
basis of monthly progress payments
and payment at completion of work,
according to announcement yesterday
of Commissioner Barbur. The deci
sion was reached after City Attorney
Grant had ruled that it might legally
be required.
The step Is taken to force contrac
tors to give the property owners the
benefit of the progress payment sys
tem In a reduction of bids if they feel
hat it is sufficiently to their advan
tage to work under it. Under the
present system the contractor may be
paid 80 per cent monthly on th work
actually completed In warrants draw
ing 6 per cent. Mr. Barbur holds that
the system is advantageous in financ
ing tho contractor with little capital.
Jf alternative bids Indicate that con
tractors are willing to work more
cheaply under the progress payment
plan the bids will be let on that
basis; otherwlso it will be discontin
ued and payment made In a lump Bum
at completion, with a saving of the
Interest on the warrants.
