not be proper for me at this time to

state department from Philip G. Han
ma, American consul general, brought
forth another appeal from the Ameri-
can National Red Cross Society for
funds with which TO supply our un-
fortunate neighbors Of Mexico with
the necessities of life"
The loss of life and destruction of
property is even greater than was at
first supposed, and it is predicted that
great physical suffering will prevail
among the homeless during the fall
and winter if ample relief is not af-
forded.
The destruction was greatest in the
country and small towns between Mon
terey and NIatamoras, says one of the
kilograms received yesterday. Mi.
Hanna says the American consul at
Matamoras reports that place under
water and serious conditions of affairs
prevailing, and that the railroads be-
tween Matamoras and Monterey have
been washed away.
1T is believed by many, Mr. Hanna
adds, that more than ten thousand
lives have been lost, thousands are
homeless and winter is coming on
