Of the Hebrew Orphan Asylum have de-
clined the offer Of a gift OF money from
Mrs. A. II. Stewart, through Judge Hilton,
and it is expected that other Hebrew asso,

THE President OF Mt. Sinai Hospital says:
at Mrs. Stewart had quietly sent check
to- die Institution Il would probably have
been accepted, but in view Of the way in
which the offer was made there Is feel
ing Of opposition TO Its acceptance among
Hebrews generally" ~
