Relief FUND IS
EXPECTED IOBEI
TOTAL OF $4,000

Money still continues to pour into
the office of the Chamber of Commerce
for the relief of the widows and or
phans in Belgium. Yesterday the fin
ance committee Of the chamber turn
ed s34,0 900 over to the War Relief Com
smittee, of which w. r.. Castle is chair
man, and this morning a pile Of cor
respondence netted an additional
$1,000. The War Relic: Committee has
forwarded $35,000 to New York City
this money to be uced exclusively for
Belgian relief. ~.
The finance committee of the Cham
Der of Commerce expects mat its en-
tire fund will amount to $4,000. The
War Relief Committee is still collect
ing money, and has yet to hear from
Maui, Kauai and Hawaii for final re
suits. According 10 Chairman Castle
the next money to be cabled from Ho
nolulu will be for relief in Northern
France where, according to press de
spatches, there is great distress. II
also is probable that the committee
shortly will send something for re
lief in austrian Galicfa. = q. !.
The War Relief Committee, says Mr.
Castle, is not making an effort tC
raise funds for British and German re
lief, from the fact that this work sis
being done locally by the German re
lief fund COMMITTEES and the English
relief fund committee. If funds fol-
this special relief are received by the
War Relief Committee they imnle
7diately are turned over to the respee
