Here is the problem presented to Dayton, O., as summarized by George F. Burba, secretary to Governor Cox, and representing the latter In the flood ruined city: Forty thousand persons must be fed, clothed and housed for a week more. Twenty thousand persons must be cared for indefinitely. There are per sons who lost their all wheu their household goods were swept away. They must be provided with a lew necessary household articles such as bedding, pots and pans, stoves and a few dollars. A half million dollars could be used lu this way by the re lief committee. Fifteen thousand houses and busi ness buildings must be rehabilitated. Two thousand house.! and other structures or what remains of them must be pulled down. Thousands of tons of debris must be removed. Following are some of the accom .plib.iuepM(',S)nfct t,be .RnouV bufk. over 'the city last 'weelu-,''.'.--. The water, w6rk'pu,mplng station is in operation but the distribution of water Is retarded greatly by open pipes In wrecked houses. The pres sure is feeble, but growing stronger as leaks are checked. The main saniti ry sewer is In opera tion, although many of the laterals leading from houses are clogged with mud or backed-up waier. The flood sewers, separated from tho sanitary, are in operation. These sewers carry oft the rainfall from the gutters and are needed now to remove the water being pumped from base ments. Telegraph service Is fast catching up with requirements, which still are enormous. A careful summary plaoes the total loss of life from the flood at not to exceed 150..: No lives were lost In the fires. 1 lie lyjna vi 111c naa ctuiivi slvely In the parts of the city occupied by foreign laborers. tiigiu hundred dead is the average estimate of seven-eighths of Day ton's undertakers called together for a conference. They reported eighty two bodies had been recovered and now are ut various places. in the city. Individual estimates of the undertak ers were from 500 to 1,000, but the consensus of opinion was that 800 would be a conservative figure. Ex ploration of several recesses of the city by newspaper men would hardly Justify such an estimate. ,' ..v" The property loss will probably ceed $30,000,000. This includes dam age to real estate and public works, to automobiles stored in two leading garages, and other personal property; to manufacturing, mercantile and Jewelers' stocks, public utility plants and equipment, and Includes tf!..Vost of rebuilding -uilleVof 'asphalt streets and walks. '. None or the public buildings was de stroyed. Among the latter were the Dayton club, Victoria, National and Colonial theaters, city hall, courthouse, Deckel, Phillips, Algonquin and Atlas hotels, Masonic Temple, postoftice, Y. M. C. A. and all churches. There is enough food and clothing for present needs, hut relief will be required on a diminishing scale for an ottier month. .Major Rhoades divided the city into sixteen sanitary sections and placed a competent man in charge of the work In each zoue. Attention was concentrated on Rlverdale, where the flood was most destructive as to the loss of life and inundation of the private homes. The water has not yet left Rlverdale en tirely. So far there are no more than a normal number of cases of contagious disease. Meanwhile hundreds are at work !n the central part of the city, where the greatest property loss lias been ex perienced. There has been no exag geration of this loss. Miles of streets present the same ruined aspect. Big Loss of Life at Columbus. The morgues of Columbus filled up slowly as the swollen waters of the Scioto receded. The number of bodies recovered from the yellow flood reached sixty. Word reached Columbus that sev eral bodies had been seen floating on the current of the river at Clrclevllle, twenty-flvo miles below there. The au thorities believe that these were vic tims of the Columbus flood and many of those lost never will be recovered. For miles along the swollen river there are great drifts of debris, the wreckage of houses swept away and ' .Lfaemolished. The debris had formed j 'great banks, 'held together by the thick mud brought down by the river. Practically all of the bodies recovered ! have been taken from the edges of these drifts as the waters recede and the authorities believe that many more THE 10MRCH CLOTHIIG CO.

All the other bridges are washed out and it is said not an other bridge remains standing be tween Zanesville and Marietta. The Wheeling and Lake Erie and the Baltimore and Ohio railroad stations are gone. Hundreds of buildings have been undermined and may topple at any moment. Twenty Dead at Hamilton. At Hamilton, 0., search Is being made for bodies of the flood victims. A conservative estimate places the dead at twenty. Suburbs on the north of Hamilton are in ruins.

PIERPONT MORGAN DIES Financial Giant Passes Away in Hotel in Rome BRAIN EXHAUSTION AT LAST Stock Markets Not Affected by News of Death Country's Big Men Pay Tribute to Memory of Financier, Rome, April 1. The body of J. Pier pont Morgan, the American financier, was embalmed this morning in the apartments ill the Grand hotel where he died. The body Is to be sent to the United States on board ship from ..'aples. A funeral service will be held here be fore its departure. It Is thought the body will remain at the hotel for a couple of days. Many legal formali ties are necessary In Italy for the re moval of bodies, but in this case the will doubtless be simplified and short ened through the influence of the American embassy. Notwithstanding the fact that the date of the funeral has not yet been announced many floral offerings have already arrived at the hotel. The register which was placed In the hall of the Grand hotel was filled with signatures of prominent persons who called. Messengers came bring ing condolence from King Victor Em manuel and Pope Pius X. The pope spoke of Mr. Morgan as "A great and good man." The messages were so numerous their details and the names of the senders have not been given out yet. Mr. Morgan toward the end showed that he was suffering internally only by a movement of bis right hand. Otherwise he displayed no sign of vitality except by continuous heavy breathing. Mr. Morgan was unable to as similate artificial nourishment admin istered during the last hours but his physical weakness was extreme. Heart tonics were injected, but these had no affect and for several hours before his death he was in a state of coma, un able to respond to any questions or to recognize any of those at his bedside. A statement giving the full Btory of the late J. Plerpont Morgan's Illness has been prepared by Professor Giu seppe GastianellL Dr. M. Allen Starr and Dr. George a. Dixon and cabled to his son In New York. The statement recapitulates the symptoms of Mr. Morgan's malady since It first developed In Egypt. It oualiftes his Illness as nervous pros- Outergarments.

Then a gradual general collapse supervened, affecting the digestion and the mental faculties until delirium ensued. The rise of temperature noted was, it is said, probably due to lesions of the brain. Dr. M. Allen Starr of New York, called into consultation In connection with J. Pierpont Morgan's Illness, at tributed the financier's breakdown to emotion caused by the investigation carried out by the Pujo committee at Washington into the operations of the "money trust." STOCKS UNAFFECTED New York Market Prepared For Mor gan's Death. New York, April 1. The news an nouncing the death of J. Pierpont Mor gan was received in the financial dis trict two hours before the opening of the stock exchange and found every body prepared for the event. The occurrence resulted In no com motion whatever in the London mar ket either in the American department or in any other class of securities. At the outset here prices were shaded a little bit. From the brief recession there was a vigorous rally followed in turn by a trickling decline and from then on until the end of business the market remained relative ly quiet but firm and steady. It may be truly said that the death of Mr. Morgan seemed to exercise no influence whatever upon quoted values and that a person who had not learned of the fact otherwise could have in no way gathered from the iicllon of the market that the greatest financial genius of modern times had passed away. MORGAN IS LAUDED Prominent Men Pay Tribute to Mem ory of Financier. New York, April 1. The announce ment of the death of J. P. Morgan brought forth tributes to his memory from men distinguished in almost all vocations of life. Financiers of the world, bankers, railroad men, industrial men, lawyers, ministers, physicians, men distin guished in belles lettres and men in public office spontaneously . testified their appreciation of the commanding genius and wide unselfish public spirit of the man. "We have lost our foremost financial magnate," was the word from Andrew Carnegie, "the man who inspired con fidence and hence could gather around him the ablest and best counsellors during times of financial panics and prevent absolute ruin. More than ever since our leader is gone is an agency needed to do for our country what the Bank of England and Bank of France do for their countries before panics spread as do ours."
