Bouthilller on. the room leased by him for a saloon T This la tha atoiy which la now floating- about among commercial dab members. It la aaid that In order to do thla tba name of John Conrad wai Injected into tba controversy, eome good preaa agent atunta were turned looae and tha effect was aa desired, Aroused by tne name of John Conrad and the Pullman cafe, tba board of gov ernors haa met and employed an attor ney to break tha lease. Owing to the many safeguards thrown .about tha tn atrument whan It waa drawn it will be easy to cancel, different membera of tha board aey, and the action will ba taken at tba next meeting of tha board. Why tba Biatnxbanoa, ' Tba story told about how tba commov tlon concerning the proposed saloon In tha building waa atlrred ia an Interoat ing one and haa gained a good (leal of credence in commercial club circles dur ing the paat day or so. A year ago. during last July or August, the small room was leased to F. X. A. Bouthilller to ba used aa a saloon. At' the time Hothchild - Brothers stood sponsor for the applicant for the lease, signing a bond to make good the rental in tha vent that the lessee could not meet the payments. ; 'a". ,, ."" The lease was for a term of five years ' and was at the rate of tl75 a month. This rental waa a topnotch fisure for a saloon, and la one that could not ba afforded by any other class of business jvhtett.;mKWL.avput In the space. t - .' The lessee may have found that ha ? would have a bard time to meet the ex Vpenaea of tha place, and his bondsmen may have consequently come to the I conclusion that they bad a white ele l phant on their hands. It "was supposed that the club would be adverse to giv ing up the contract, because of the high rental stipulated In the lease and for that reason it was decided to bring ; John Conrad into play. Some innocent newspapers may have been "roped In" to auDDort the clay. According to the game, the license of the Pullman cafe waa transferred to the Commercial Club building in the name of C. P. O'Meara, known to be , simply a blind for Conrad in his oper ation oi me uaer street piace. Transfer Causes Trouble. The fact of the transfer waa then stirred up systematically and had Its expected effect of rousing the board of governors to action. This action waa taken at a meeting held- On Thursday, when (X A. Boil was selected to break : the lease. The game appeared to work , veil, if game It waa 8! nee then no further action haa been taken, no meet- jng of tha' board of governors having . been held, but it is stated- by different members of the board that there will be no saloon allowed in the butldlnsr. It ia expected that the next meeting of Tne ooard wtu oe neia early tnia weeic, when definite action will be taken. Xt la not believed by different mam---bar of - tha Commercial dub that OlCasra aver could have operated . a alooa la tha building, aa there waa m pTO-visioa In tha leas given W Bout fclUler tot uhlettiag tha place. The lldensa being in ' the name of O'Meara and not transferable, - could rot bave been used by the lessee, no i that In reality there does not seem' to have been much danger of Conrad hav ing aecured a foothold in the Commer cial Club building. . - ' It would appear, therefore, that 'the board of governor had been bunkoed : Into deciding to cancel tha lease in Una with the desire of the lessee and Ji la bond em an by the use of John Conrad's . giama and "unsavory reputation" aa - a ?ort of red flag to wave in the faoa of ha authorities of the organisation. - FATHER, MOTHER AND SON IN SAME PRISON ti?
