Ex President Cleveland on Chairman
Haruum

NEW YORK, May 1.-Ex-President
Cleveland Yesterday sent the following
telegram of coincidence 10 Mrs. Barnum
al Lime Rock, Conn Il have this
moment heard of your bereavement and
hasten TO assure you that ! sincerely
mourn the death of your husband, and
deeply sympathize with you IN your
great ailliclion' In speaking of Mr..
Barnum the x-President said d" lie was
the most unselfish man ever knew. lie
gave literally of his time and money
for the benefit of The Democratic party
and never used his position as chairman
of The National Committee TO advance
the fortunes of himself or his personal
political friends.
Daniel Lamont said "Mr Barnum' s
interest in the success OF the party was
SO great that he denied himself the rest
which his health demanded When the
victory of 1884 was won he was content
that his party was in power, and he
made no demands and had no fayorites
TO press. His death is a great loss to the
party.
