JEWISH REFUGEES.
Relief Society Begins Its COllections-HOw
the Charges Will Be Cared For.

The finance committee of the Hebrew Re-
lief Association. consisting Of Samuel Z.
Rauh, Leon Kahn, Martin Schwartz, Isaac
Ciener and RABBI Messing. will to-day be-
gin the canvass for the collection of funds
with which TO do the work of relief In
hand. The association has rented house
at No. 466 South Illinois street, In which
the Stein family has been stationed. 1t
will become kind of boarding house for
the reception of all the refugees IN
til they can be made self-sustain-
ing The house will serve In itself to
make the Stein family independent.
for those VINO are sent to live there will be
charged with board. This plan was found
more expedient than putting the Stems on
a farm. which would entail large expend-
iture in outfit and furnishings, and would
protract the period of dependence. AS it is,
the family Will no longer be a charge. The
young man in the family has been given
employment In commission house, and
two brothers named David and Solomon
Kassalowski, will pay Mrs. Stein 81 q week
each for board. Furniture was purchased
yesterday for the house. In case the refu-
gees arrive IN greater number than the
house can accommodate, q larger one will
be selected.
The KassalowskIs are tanners. and were
discovered by the police and taken to T.. Ii.
Feibleman, of the committee on reception.
Employment at good wages was found for
them at once at Rauh Brothers. A young
man who arrived Tuesday with his wife
secured employment at his trade as baker
with q countryman on South Tennessee
street. There Is one yet, besides the elder
Stein, to be given employment. He is q
young man who arrived yesterday. He has
already won the regard of those of the COM
mittee who have met him by his intelligent
face and manly bearing: He was dry
goods clerk in Russia. lived only elk teen
miles from the Prussian border, and speaks
q pure quality of German. The committee
on employment is composed of Joseph Eek
house, Abraham Kahn, August Pink. Ben
iamln Gellman. Joseph Bernstein. Herman
Bamberger. Ed Ducas. Rabbi Messing and
Jacob Frankel.
