said yesterday that he astonished when he
visited the collections to see the character of
the art and the number of fine pictures 1t was
difficult to select a few examples out of so many
of the highest merit, he said. but as the space
for the exhibition small the choice was
limited and he had selected examples OF dlf-
ferent schools, and had to confine the exhibition
to foreign art leaving the American artists to
be exhibited next fall
