Henry W. Lawrence, president of the company that built it at a cost of about $1,200,000 was hastily summoned to Chicago by the National Hotel Association when rumors reached other cities that he intended to put a bathtub in every other room. : : Bathtubs Were Big Issue Such coddling of guests never before had been heard of, and after Mr. Lawrence confirmed the rumors to the nation’s hotel men, and refused to alter his plans, they shook sad heads and predicted that the hotel business and very possibly the

. Guest List Impressive

The prospectus for the hotel made a great point of the fact that there would be several public rooms suitable for conventions, and pointed out that the Bates House was losing such business because it lacked such accomodations. Many important social and political events have taken place in the! hotel. ~ It long has been headquar-|

list of distinquished guests through the years is quite impressive. Now the Claypool, with the sale of the majority stock to Waddam’s Hall, a Catholic boys’ school in Ogdensburg, N. Y., subject to the approval of Probate Judge Smiley Chambers, will be extensively revamped, it is widely predicted, and enter another period of its history.
