STEWART, John Alkman:
Formerly assistant treasurer of the U. S. at N. Y., and for many years president of the U. S. Trust Co. of that city, born New York, Aug. 22, 1822. His father was of Scottish birth emigrating to this country while quite young and settling in New York, where he was for many years a ward assessor and afterwards receiver of taxes. Mr. Stewart was educated first in a public school of New York, and after- wards entered Columbia College, where he was graduated in 1840, having taken the literary and scientific course of study in that institution. In 1842, being then twen- tv years of age, he was appointed clerk of Board of Education, a position which he retained until 1850, when he became actuary of the U. S. Life Insurance Co .. In 1853, the U. S. Trust Co. of N. Y. was chartered by the State legislature, mainly in consequence of his efforts, and he re- signed his former position to accept that of secretary of this new financial institution. He remained in this position until 1864, gaining such confidence and respect for his ability in finance, that in June of the lat- ter year a pressing request was tendered him by President Lincoln and Mr. Fessen- den, Secretary of the Treasury, to accept the post of Assistant Treasurer of the U. S. at New York. This office had pre- viously been tendered him by Secretary Chase, and declined. But, now that the war was at its height and the national finances in a state of jeopardy, while pub- lic was wavering, he accepted, though at much personal sacrifice, and continued to discharge the onerous and responsible

At this period, Mr Lawrence, STEWART, Merch Bradt: president of the U. S. Trust Co., resigned Captain, U. S. Army ; born in Virginia ; appointed from N. Y., Cadet at Military Academy, June 24, 1892 ; additional second lieutenant, Eleventh Infantry, June 12, 1896 ; second lieutenant, Eighth Infantry, Aug. 27, 1896; first lieutenant, Oct. 12, 1898; captain, June 12, 1901. Address, Fort Jay, N. Y. City. his position, and Mr. Stewart was unani- mously elected to succeed him. He ac- cordingly withdrew from the assistant treasurership, which no longer so strongly needed his services, and accepted the pres- idency offered him. For many years since that date Mr. Stewart continued to dis- charge the duties of his responsible posi- STICKNEY, Albert: tion in a manner which proved highly profitable to the company and acceptable to its board of directors. Under his con- trol the company became the largest of its kind in America. He is prominently iden- tified with many institutions of the city, being a director in the Merchants' Na- tional Bank, the Bank of New Amsterdam, the Greenwich Savings Bank, the Equit- able Life Assurance Society, and the Liv- erpool and London Globe Insurance Co. He is also a director of the N. Y. Eye and Ear Infirmary, a trustee of the John F. Slater Fund, an
active trustee of Princeton College, which position he has held for many years. He belongs to the Metropolitan and Union League Clubs, his membership in the latter indicating his po- litical affiliation with the Republicans. Originally he was Democratic in views, but during the Civil War he warmly sup- ported President Lincoln's admininstra- tion, and has since, though not an extreme high-tariff man, remained a believer in the leading principles of the Republican party. He married, 1845, Miss Sarah Y. Johnson, of N. Y., who died in 1886. In 1890 he married Mary O. Capron, of Balt- imore. In 1902 Mr. Stewart resigned the presidency of the company, much to the regret of his associates; is still in the board of directors. Residence, 125 E. 37th St. ; office, 45 Wall St., N. Y. City.
