A.
S.
Paul,
who
appeared
before
the
city
council
last
night,
is
leaving
for
the

this
afternoon
on
business
in

with

The

hotel
and
Mr.
Paul
will
be
given
a
letter
to
that
effect.
In
asking
the
city
to
back
up
the
proposition,
Mr.
Paul
said
that
he
had
interviewed
abut
twenty
business
people
that
day
and
all
had
been
favorable.
He
said
that
he
had
secured
the
lease,
had
the
plana
drawn
up,
which
had
been
approved
by
the
hotel
management
of
the
Canadian

and
had

a
company
which
had
expressed
willingness
to
construct
the
building.
Lately,
however,
the
company
had
been
Interested
In
other
matters
and
he
was
not
sure
if
they
would
now
be
In
a

to
go

with
the
undertaking.
If
that
proved
to
be

case
then
he
was

In
the
proposition,
and
If
he
were
not
successful
would
turn
the
matter
over
to
a
promoter
who
would
put
the
deal,
through.
He
was
simply
asking
the
city
council
to
go
on
record
as
believing
that
the
proposition
of
constructing
a
hotel
was
necessary
and
would
be

for

The

would
be
