The case was on trial | before Justice Greenbaum and a jury to-day in the Supreme Court. Mrs, Rosenberg died last March at Mt. Sinai Hospital. She left no will, but there were two bank accounts, One of these, the two daughters claimed, was to go to them, while the other account, about $3,000, was to be divided equally between them and their brother. The Drother contended he was entitled to an equal share in both accounts.
