chased. and for number Of years past
has conducted his wharf, owned and opo--
ated small steamboats, and continued in

sors, namely, General Ashton and Gener-
al Carr, have each reappointed him. and
al the time of his death he continued to
/ hold the rank. The deceased was a
| prominent Mason. Captain Hatfield
some years ago, married a GRANDDAUGHTER

THE COUNCIL OF JEWISH WOMEN.
New Ofneers Elected - Resolutions
Provoked q Debate.

New York. Nov. l9.-The last and in
some respects the most interesting ses-
sion Of the Council of Jewish women was
held today with the president. Mrs. Han
nah G. Solomon Of Chicago in the chair.
The work included the election of nation
al officers for the next three years. For
the past year a great deal Of rivalry aas
cropped up between the Chicago section,
which now dominates the council. and the
New York section. the members Of which
felt that they were not sufficient repre-
scented Oh the national board. The fol-
lowing were elected: President, Mrs.
Hannah @. Solomon Chicago: first wee
president. Mrs. Sophia Baer. New York;
second vice president, Mrs. z Mandel,
Chicago: corresponding secretary. Mas
Sadie American. Chicago: recording CSC
rotary. Miss Gertrude Berg. Philadelphia;
treasurer. Mrs. Carrie n. woiff. Chicago.
At the forenoon session a resolution
sympathizing with the Armenians who
suffer from religious persecution pro-
voked a great deal OF discussion. Mrs.
Frederick Nathan said there was a great
difference of opinion as TO whether the
Armenians were prosecuted or not. "A
great many people are Of the opinion"
said she. that the ArmenIans AVE
brought all the trouble on themselves
through political intrigues and | do not
think this is our province 70 decide who
is to blame" The resolution was tabled.
A resolution was adopted expressing
the gratitude Of Jewish women Of Ameri-
ca at the improved condition of their co.
religionists in Russia. For the next ron
Yention invitations have been received
from Denver and Memphis. The sentiment
Of the delegates appears to favor Den
yer. A reception TO the visiting delegates
and friends was given this afternoon at
Sherrys.
Mrs. Rebecc& Kohut spoke on the desc
Grafton Of the Jewish Sabbath. She said:
Let the bread winner who wants to
work on the Sabbath do SO. but let all
| Of US who have no reason to work observe
the Sabbath and refrain from doing those
| things which do US no good and which
will give US no favor from our Christian
| sisters"
The question of selecting a place fol
holding the next convention was ief
undecided A proposition to make tbs
| American Jewess the oficial organ Of
| the council was referred TO a committee
/ After Rabbi Periera Mendez had de
ivered a benediction. the convention sd
