 New Haven, Conn, Oct. 24 1898, To the Members of tht Connecticut san
 itary and Relief Associations:
 At a meeting of the executive com mittee of the Connecticut Sanitary and Relief association, held in New Haven October 13, 1898, it was voted to dis band the society, as it has fully and most satisfactorily accomplished the work for which it was organized under its articles of association.
 It was also voted to advise those chapters of the association that wish to continue work for the relief of sol diers to join the Red Cross or some other permanent society organized for such purposes.
 It was voted to send the money at present in the treasury, and box con- taining articles on hand, to Captain Bowen of the Fifth United States in fantry (regulars) at Santiago, Cuba; and any money or goods sent by chap ters to New Haven will be used for the purpose of carrying out the foregoing vote.
 The chapters are requested to send in their last contributions as soon as possible, so that the box may be sent to Captain Bowen at an early day.
 The executive committee feel that the ladies of the Connecticut Sanitary and Relief association should be congratu- lated on the work they have accom- plished since June 8. The spirit with which they took up the work and car ried it on through the trying summer months without a murmur and with out flagging, was the same patriotic spirit that sustained the American sol diers at San Juan,
 The success of the society has been notice and had only voluntary subscrip- tions to support it. It has been able to send substantial aid to nearly every camp hospital in the southern states, and has helped many military hospi- tals at the north. It has never refused request for goods of any kind, or for money. The goods sent have, in every instance reached their destination and most grateful letters of acknowledgment have been received in return. Letters received from many camps state that the name of the Connecticut Sanitary and Relief association has been on the lips of every man in their hospitals. The amount of work done during the short period of four months can be bet ter understood by the following con densed report of money, goods and ma terials furnished:
