PLAN HOTEL CLEARING HOUSE

New York Has Scheme to Save Visitors Inconvenience in Locating Accommodations. New York. —A hotel clearing-house, with the object of locating without delay suitable rooms for visitors when the hotels are filled, will be inaugurated, under the auspices of the Hotel association of New York city. The congested condition of hotels here at certain times during the year, as during the present world’s baseball series where visitors who failed to make reservations were unable to find accommodations without considerable trouble, led to the decision to organize the clearing-house. Under the new arrangement the hotel keepers believe that the troubles of the business journer In New York are at an end.
