Lennon. » ___

`Tl!s Ysllfs American season in London he been in every way a record one, and he hotels and shopkeepere have' bene-

enormousiy by the rush of visitors

:sl the Oihel' lids 0( the Atlantlu.

I Hot so very msny years ago the West

d tradesmen took next to nothing dur- ’ g the months when society went out of `

n. Business was practically stagnant til the lnlnlions in the West End ed up the blinds and opened the shut.

and society returned.

Today things are different. The peace.

lil invasion of American pleasure-seekers ' s endowed London with s second sea-

lverybedy benefits by them. from

diamond merchant in Bond street to

e csbmsn plying for hire. London is

recognised as the market plncs of the

Americans, and London has been astut enough to cater especially for American during their season.

Everything is done to provide for them,-

as it were, a home from home. The

restaurants have found out the virtue o

lee water and soda fountains, and even the chemist contributes his quota to their

wmfort by stocking chewing gum. The result is satisfactory to all pai1ies.

‘I Harvest for Hotels.

Inquiries made yesterday mnong the

tourist companies, hotels and stcamsliip lines show that something iilce 60,000 Americans have visited London this year, Some remain for a brief five days. others dwell here for e longer period, but tho hotels, large and small. and the boarding houses of Bloomsbury and Bayswater hive been held by the invading Amer- icons since March.

Between them these 60,000 Americans

have spent about r1,500.000, chiefly in Lon- don. This calculation is bnecd on figurcs aupplied by one of the lurgest hotels, nrhiah alone has housed 6000 Americans linca March, and the average hotel hill M each has been B250. There uro at least live hotels 'which can give eiinilur iig- urea, and if the average American spends |126 in London we reach tae total stated. Some, of course, spend next to nothing and live in boarding houses for 8l0.50 a week, 'but others spend hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars on jewelry and dlass.

Go where you will in Londm, at this

period you will hear nothing but grateful recognition of American custom.

"Americans corns to London for the spe- cific purpose of buyinl." said’ s West End tailor yesterday. Many of thcin some with half-empty trunks, mad buy a complete outfit 0! socks, ties, collars, shirts, suits of clothes and hats. I have been kept busy with orders for lounlle Iuits and frock coats at n. time when business is nt n standstill as far iris my hgular customers are concerned."

No Black Season.

"They will have flowers," said a florist.

‘"1 might shut up shop, for all the best London customers are out of town, hut the American visitors keep things going.

These roses that you seo hers," pointing lo a magnificent bunch of pink rose A

“are sold to a wealthy American custom~\

ar. Roses are their favorite flower."

The American visitors have stavcd off

disaster from the river this year. The weather matters nothing to them. To nomo to London without seeing the river would be a. wasted journey, and so, evln lholllh the visitors equip themselves with maoltintoshes and umbrellas for their river trip, the Thames boatmsn reap the benefit.

The hotelr and boarding houses get hy

hr the largest linre of the |7,!>00¢000 which American travelers lenvo hchiiid them in London, Next como the antiqui- dealors, for America is particularly keen on old china and Eheflleld plate, and will pay almost any price for n fancied ubiect. Then follow the tuiiors. the hnberdnshci-s, the hatters, the Jewelers and the iiiiscei- laneous trlsdera.
