Th« tsbl» of paper flower« was also much noticed.Drop'-d with flowered crêpe paper, the vases filledwith b.g pink roses, peonies, carnations, popplesar.d delicate sweet p«as, and the other appointmentsequaliy dainty, this corner became one of the pointsof aitractlon.The evening school'» sewing class««' work received

considerable attention. Classed with It was some

wark done by boye. jr. consisted of a number ofdiminutive tents and Maes, set up as a camp. The

sewing of these Fmall objects was examined with In¬terest by every woman visitor. Other needleworkdone by hoys was shown by the West Side ManualTraining School, and was a silk flag made of stripsof red and whit« ribbon overhanded together. Thestars which adorned the flold of blue Instead ofbeing appltqudd were err.broi.io.red.The Avenue B School had some modelling In clay,

THE STEINWAY ESTATE.

REPORTE!» DIFFICULTIES DUE TO OVER-OENKROSITY-NOTHINO TO DO WITH

STEINWAY A .SONSThe report was circulated yesterday that the es¬

tate of William Stein way. th« form«r head of thecelebrated piano tlrm of Btelnway & Sons, was se¬

riously embarrasoed on account of the generosityof Mr St. ¡nw.ay and hl^ Internet In art. Mr. Steln-way. who died a ve.u- ,.go and a. half ago, was sup¬posed to be Immensely rich, but It was now found,the report said, that his «state micht not prove,after all. to he able to pay the claims against It,to say nothing of leaving anything to the nomi¬nal heir» The reason of this condition. It ruassert».!, was .Mr. Steinway's enthusiastic supportof musical art and the « oeroslty with which hogave money and other aid (*> any and every ar¬tist who c.,m* to him -and asked for It.A Tribune reporter \ est -r'.as saw Charles Stem-

way, the present head of the corporation ofSreinway * Sons, and I»uls von Pernuth. one ofthe executors of the Btelnway estate. The twom«n w. r« together, and what Mr. Stein way saidwas fttlly corroborated by Mr. Yon Rernuth. Mr.Btelnway said: "it must he remembered that thisIs not a matter of ttMUSSndS of dollars, but ofmillions. The estate is large, and its affairs arei .implicated. Beside») Ute piano business, Mr.Btelnway had many business Interests, and hi«death, coming Just alón? with th«. hard times, tiedup a good many of th« Investments that he hadrr.ud«."There Is no present means of realizing on many

of the assets Th- estate Is now in proc-ss of liqul-ditlon. and the outcome, which we cannot entirelyforesee, although there are .1 good many claims,win «leppn.i on .he possibility of realising on as¬set.« I am sure of this, that the estate Is worth.If it Is possible to r*ailze on it. many times the.amount of the cairn» agalnat It Nobody can tellhow it irlll »me o u As to the mortgage onBtelnway Hall. thAt was negotiated In the panic.i UM erben mono} was needed for carrying onthe business, and the mortgage was obtainedon especially favorable terms

"There is one thing which I should like you tor a rightly before the public, and that 1» thatth« estate of William Btelnway has nothing to dowith Btelnway &. Son». The tlrm Is entirely a sep¬arate affair, and th« only connection of the estatewith It la that the estate owns some shares inSteinway A Sons, but not a majority of them. Th *

corporation of Btelnway & Sons is not involved lathe affairs of th« Btelnway eetate at all."
