Drs. Mayer and White. His business
representatives, Judge Hilton and Mr..
Libby, arrived shortly after his death.
The news of the death spread rapidly
throughout this city, and caused consid-
erable excitement. Expressions OF re.
gret were general. Both OF his immense

Mr.. Stewart has been identified with the
mercantile interests of this city for half
century, and a prominent figure in 1t

$1,000. He first taught school, but soon
opened small retail store ON Broad
way. Business increased rapidly, and
in 1S48 he built great marble ware
house on the site OF the old Washington
Hotel.
His success thenceforward was re-
markable and almost unparalleled, till at
ths time oil his death he was supposed
to be one OF the richest men in the city.
He had begun great work of charity in
the Home for W0rklngwomen in this
city, and City for Workingmen, on
Long Island, but his sudden death leaves
them both unfinished. AS to his wealth

thing from twenty millions to one hum
dred millions. He was very heavy in
vestor in real estate.
Mr.. Stewart was one OF the largest
real estate owners In the United States.
He owned two valuable blocks on Broad
way and occupied them as business es-
Establishments. He also owned the Metro
politan and st. Nicholas hotels, the
Globe Theater, Niblo's Garden, the Am
ity-street Baptist Church, and the
Grand-street Presby terian Church.
His mansion on Fifth avenue !;
nearly Two blocks ON Bleecker street;
several tine residences en- Fifth avenue |;
eight thousand acres of land at Hemp
stead, with numerous houses thereon;
an immense amount of property at Glen
ham, on the Hudson; also the Union
Hotel at Saratoga; the Hotel for Work

houses in the city and tracts OF subur-
ban property.
