CLEVELAND TO RED CROSS,

About the Only Good Of War IL the De-
~veiop,nent OF HumaDi~tarianism.
PHILADELPHIA. June 4.-Ex.Presl.
dent Cleveland has written a letter to
the secretary Of the committee ap.
pointed to collect funds for the Red
Cross society, the fund to be used for
the relief Of soldiers during the war,
expressing his regret at being unable to
attend a meeting of the society here.
Among other things the letter contains
the following:
War is a national atliction, ever
when best justified and most clearly
unavoidable. Whatever proof it fur.
nishes Of mans advance in civilization
and the growth of human kinship is
apt to be found in the efforts to which
it gives rise for the alienation Of the
horrors of battle, and for the relief and
comfort of those who must suffer and
die.
The society of the Red Cross, de-
voted to this humane and merciful
m~inistration. deserves the hearty co.
operation and aid of all good citizens
who estimate at their just value the
patriotism and devotion of those who
fight in their country's cause"
