Order Smallpox and Diphtheria in
Zanesville; Epidemic Is Feared.
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.

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

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

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

remained normal until Easter Sunday.
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."
