STEWARTS MANSION.
A Million Dollar Residence Sold.
The famous maneiou which A
T Stewart reared as a residence
for himself more than a quarter
of a century ago, at the corner of
Fifth avenue and Thirty Fourth
street which later was the home
of the Manhattan Club, is to be
torn down and the work of demolition
has already been begun.
The mansion cost over $1,000,000,
and it was sold as it stood last
Wednesday for its estimated value j
as a pile of second hand building
material. Its demolition began
on Thursday and will continue
until the material has all been
removed to a yard at Avenue Ii!
and Eighteenth street, to bo sold |
there piece by piece for what it |
is worth for marble, stone, iron,
and wood.
Since the Manhattan Club
moved out the house has been
vacant. When the Knickerbocker
Trust Company bought the!
land and building some time ago1
it had no use for the mansion that
was all but historic, and saw a
greater value in the land wit h the
house removed. The purchasers j
of the building as a speculation j
in second-hand materials were F
\V Seacris' Jr & Co. The terms j
of sale provide that the last ves !
tige of it shall be off the ground'
in forty eight days. Its construe-'
ion took two years. The deal
which consigned the building to
(he junk pile was a very quiet
one, bo quiet that when on Thursday
morning a groupe of workmen
gathered on the roof and began
its destruction most people
who noticed them were surprised.
They didn't see the workmen
make very much progress, for
even in the roof that care which
characterized the entire construct
ion of the building, and which
will make it destruction no easy
job, was met with. In the roof,
1oo, workmen met with evidence
of the expensive manner iu which
i he work of construction had been
carried on. The roof was of iron
plates. The contractors said yes
terday they were very sure there
wasn't another such roof in New !
York. The whole mansion is of
iron and stone and marble, (he
amount of wood in it boing inconsiderable
and confined for the
most part to door and window
sashes.
Builders have awaited the
demolition with interest because
of the Reorets nf rr>na(rn/?liftn (K..?
they expect may bo dislosed.
The marble for the interior fit
lings was used with such lavishness
as to make it practically a
mansion of marble. The contractors
have estimated that half of
(he second-hand material into
which the mansion will soon be
transformed will be marble. It
has long been known that Mr
. Stewart among the many features
of his extraordinary home, took
the greatest pride in the qualtiy
and quantity of the marble. It
was the talk of all buildings at
the time the house was put up.
Kropi top to bottom he had the
trimmings made of Italian marble,
quarried especially for the
mansion, and every piece was
i
jl. * - --
examined, it is said by the owno
himself. All of the floors, evei
that ol the basements, are of th
same material. The demolitioi
of the house, therefore, will b
much the same as working a mar
ble quarry.
Most valuable of all the mar
ble in the building, it was sail
that in the six columns stundin
in the hall. The builders sun
yesterday that these could b
matched with difficulty, as piece
like them have not come frot:
Italy in a long time.The fireplace
are of that same kind of marble
ornate with carving. Each Ore
place, it is estimated, is worti
$2,009, ami there is one in ever}
room. The fact that even th
floor is of marble shows the utte
disregard that the builder ha<

workmen were awed by it pai

great paintings of the world, wa
a room for rubbish yesterday
Around the upper part of th
walls are painted pictures whic
the conti actors hope to remov
in such a way that they may b
kept intact.
The work was mostly on th
roof yesterday and it will b
some time before the workme
get to the first floor, where som
of the past glories of the mansio
seem to live yet in the pictur
gallery and ballroom. Al
through the* house the doorg ai
of mahogany, which will go f a
to swell tho value of the junl
pile. Since the house wan upone*
to the workmen the watchman a
the door has been besieged b,
applicants for admission. Ther
were mora toan fifty such appli
cants yesterday and they use'
all kinds of pleadings to ge
within. So valuable, however, i
everything in the house that fe^
were admitted without a pa*
from the contractors. Ther
were some who came wth th
idea of buying such things ??marble
fireplace at a price a In
tlo over its intrinsic value, bi
cause of associations.
The visitors yesterday wb
gained admittance and wandero
through the lower roomn inclnde
sevoral workmen employed i
the decoration of the house whe
it was Luilt in 1863. One r
them, who had decorated th
ceiling In the library, gaid the
he had waited for years for th
opportunity that came yesterday
and he examined the ceilin
with interest to see how roue
his work had been affected b
time. Except for a little due
and dirt he found it, ha said, al
most as good as when he dofTe
his overalls and left the plac
years ago v. ith his work finish
ed.
Much curiosity was expressei
yesterday as to what the famou
old house was worth as junk, bu
the price paid for it the contract
ors refused to divulge. Sue
deals are always speculative, an

London, March 18.~-Dr. Moi
rison, wiring to The limes froi
Pokin, e*y? :
"Russia, by her refusal to suj
port the powers in their deman'
for the punishment of guilt
officials, has finally thrown o
the mask. A plea tor lanienc
is hardly serious coming from
power whose troops last aummi
was guilty of reprisals up'-n th
Chinese scarcely leas ferooiot
r than the acta of the Boxei
n themselves.
"Russia's action is only expl
e cable aa the fulfillment of-a re
n turn for concessions with I
P Hung Chang to throw the oot
cert overboard in return for coi
cessions securing her separal
interests."
In the course of a later teh
4 gram. Dr. Morrison says:
''Chinese officials say the
- have been informed from S
[ Petersburg that Russia abandot
e her claims to exclusive rights i
Mongolia and Turkestan and coi
8 tents to modify the stringenc
n of her control of the civil admii
j lfitrction of Manchuria, agreein
that the convention shall be pul
1 iished as soon as it is signed i

w since Lord Salisbury was cajole
into the withdrawal of the Bri
r ish troops from Port Arthur i
d 1898, and it cannot fail profount
e lv to modify the situation by coi
vincing the Chinese that thei
e still exist international combint
lions capable of maintaining th
d equilibrium of the far east.".
