NUMBER
OF FLOOD
REACH
Half Million People Homeless- Relief Work Being
Done 12,000 Persons in Upper Stories
of Fire Menaced Buildings
DAYTON, Ohio, March 27. How
great a death toll the deluge of
ODayton had taken seemed almost as
much a matter of conjecture as yes
terday, but acting on stories brought
by survivors from the stricken dis
tricts, It was said, the emergency
committee had ordered 600 coffins
for immediate delivery.
The great Miami river, swollen to
a width heretofore unknown and
running with a terrific current, bar
red the way to specific information
of the number of dead. While thous
ands of persons still were marooned
In houses and on opportune roofs in
the central portion of the town, only
a few corpses had been recovered and
it was believed that in the northern
sction of the submerged city, to
which rescuing parties had been un
able to penetrate, would be found
the greatest life loss.
Although communication with the
affected districts has been practically
cut off, estimates made by conserva
tive and well Informed men place tho
death loss In the thousands and the
property destruction at $15,000,000 to
$20,000,000. Thus Ohio takes sad rank
over Omaha.
Dayton Is perhaps the greatest sin
gle sufferer. Practically half of the
town, including a new and expensive
business district, Is submerged In six
feet of water and 30,000 people aro
homeless.
Governor James M. Cox, with the
sanction of the Legislature In session
In Columbus, issued an appeal to the
world for assistance for Ohio flood
sufferers.
The dam of a reservoir north of
Hamilton burst and a great flood
swept down upon the city. According
to word from refugees, more than
1,000 people were drowned.
In Piqua the river burst the levees,
poured through the town and trapped
hundreds of people In their homes.
The swift current undermined the
houses, and it is estimated that 540
were swept to their death.
Delaware, Ohio, reports 20 dead, in
cluding the .mayor of. the city, and
$1,000,000 property.-
Middletown, Ohio, reports 12 dead.
No estimate on property loss. Town
submerged.
Cleveland, Ohio, reports that Inter
urban traffic throughout the State Is
entirely suspended.
Columbus reports worst flood in his
tory. Cummlnsvlllo, Ohio, is submerged
to a depth of 13 feet.
Cincinnati and Pittsburgh were both
damaged by the rising waters of the
Ohio, Allegheny and Monongahela
rivers.
Indianapolis, Ind., has suffered $3,
000,000 property loss and 20 lives.
Terre Haute, Ind., through tornado
and fires, reports 80 dead and $5,000,
000 property loss.
Leslie, Ark., and small towns near
by, struck by tornado, reports 18
dead.
Cokeotto, Ohio, Is submerged with
100 lives lost
Railroads have been unablo to move
trains within ten miles of Dayton
since the first break In the levee oc
curred. Late reports received from Dayton
stated that fires had flared up out in
many sections of the city and were
burning fiercely. There was little
chance of checking the fires as the
city's water department was crippled.
The citizens of the city were depend
ing much on the heavy rains that had
caused the disastrous floods to check
the fires.
For the most nnrt the cltv of Dav.
! 1 ton lies on level ground. Three rivers,
the Miami, Stillwater and Mad, Join
with another stream, known as Wolf
Creek, almost In the centre of the city.
When the dam at the big Lewiston
reservoir, 50 miles above the city,
broke an avalanoho of water went
rushing down the rivers and Joined In
one great torrent to overwhelm dwell
ings and .buildings of all kinds.
The levee, almost In the centre of
Dayton, which ordinarily would have
held tbo waters in check, stood the
pressure only for a few minutes. As
the crest of the flood from tho reser
voir reached tho olty tho levee broke
and tho flood wont rushing Into tho
streets.
Four hundred children are believed
to bave perished together in one of
tho large schools right la the path of
the flood. It was known that tho chil
dren were in the building just before
the flood broke. Tho building woe
carried away and it Is thought that
none of them escaped.
Life-savors rescued 75 persona from
homes near Denison and Harvard ave
nues. Seventeen wen babies.
Several were killed near Mnrphys
tooro, 111, In a terrific cyclone. Many
others were reported Injured.
At Horrln, 111., one person was killed
and several Injured. The property
lost hero was reported to be heavy.
It will be Impossible for ge.ve.ra!
VICTIMS MA!
3,500: WATER STILL RISING
days to get an accurate report of tho
casualties In the flood. Undoubtedly
tho flood is the greatest disastor that
lither Ohio or Indiana has ever en
countered. . !s practically impossible to com
municate with any of the stricken
towns or cities. Nearly all wires aro
down and trains have stopped run
ning. The stories of death and suffer
ing have come from, meagre reports
that managed to get through by tele
graph or telephone before the full
force of tho disaster was felt.
In taking charge of the relief work
Governor Cox, at Columbus, issued an
order directing Brlg.-Gen. John C.
Speaks to call out tho entire National
Guard of the State for duty in tho
flooded districts.
Reports of deaths or heavy loss by
flood and storm have been received
from many cities and towns in New
York, Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania,
Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri and Il
linois. In one town in Indiana, Peru,
200 are reported dead. The damage to
property In these States is estimated
at $30,000,000. Of this loss, $20,000,000
was suffered In Indiana. The damage
In Dayton, the city that sufferod
heaviest from the floods, will run up
Into millions.
Cincinnati, Ohio. The greatest
storm and flood In tho history of this
country devastated the Middle West,
from tho Great Lakes to the Gulf,
drowning and killing hundreds upon
hundreds of people.
Cleveland is paralyzed by the flood
that has lnundatod miles of territory,
made hundreds homeless, flooded a
hundred factories, cut off the city from
outside communication, and caused
millions of dollars of property damage.
Scores had narrow escapes from death
m the swelling waters.
Lumber valued at $600)00 was
swept down the river. Eight mtloe of
docks were lnundatod at a damage of
$300,000.
Ncarly every factory and plant in
tho Cuyahoga Valley was flooded.
Twenty thousand men will be out of
work for at least a week.
A cyclone followed by a heavy down
pour wrecked 200 homes in Louisville,
Ky., nnd caused proporty damage esti
mated at $2,000,000. Reports showed
that practically all of the State had
suffered.
Many companies of militia wero
rushed to the stricken vicinity from
all parts of the State, three of these
companies from Cincinnati. It is
known two soldiers wore drowned
while attempting rescues and at least
half a dozen other persons aro known
to have been drowned. Cincinnati sent
forty small boats, a large number of
policemen and firemen and provisions
to the stricken city by special trains
and tho traction cars. The breaking
of levees of tho Big Miami River was
entirely unexpected, the waters ris
ing at incredible speed from tho pro
longed rainfall. A telegram from the
National Cash Register Company ask
ing for help was forwarded to Colum
bus. Fourteen feet of water was re
ported in tho principal streets of Ham
ilton. A number of lives were lost In Ham
ilton. Cincinnati has not experienced
much troublo from tho high waters.
Tho suburb of Cummlnsvllle Is inun
dated, howover, from Mill Creek and
other streams. In a report received
from Dayton fifteen feet of water was
reported in tho main business streets,
with 80,000 homeless peoplo In the
airy.
Tho entire city Is surrounded by
water. Approaching roads are practic
ally Impassable.

LITTLE LAD FALLS
RIVER.
INTO THE
Story of How the Rescue AVns Made
by Three House Painters.
On Monday afternoon about 3
o'clock some children were playing
along the banks of tho Dyberry in
the vicinity of East street extension i
when little Munson McDermott, a'
lad about three years old, fell Into
tho water and, was Immediately car-1
ried away by tho current. Chil
dren who saw tho little tot's mishap
Immediately gave tho alarm which
was heard by three men who wero
painting a building in tho vicinity,
and they dropped their work and
ran to the river. Tho three men
wero Chas. Pethlck, James Cook and
John Peters. Little Munson fell into
the river face down and with his faco
under water he floated several hun
dred feet. AVhen the men reached
the water they saw tho body coming
down tho river quite near the shore.
The three men clasped hands, James
Cook next to tho river, next to him
was Pethlck, with Peters farther up
on the bank. Cook had taken a long
handled fork that fortunately was
near which he held in his disengaged
hand. With that instrument ho
brought the body to shore, but it was
so far out that he had to stand with
one foot in the water in order to do
the trick. The rescuers thought tho
lad was dead, for he was unconscious,
but after working over him for a
time he became conscious, much to
their astonishment. Dr. Powell was
summoned, and the little fellow was
taken to his home. At the time of
tho accident the boy's mother was
away from her homo on some errand
down town, and not until her return
did she learn of how close the death
angel had been hovering over the
McDermott home. The following
morning when he was asked how he
fell in, he said that he lost his cap,
and when ho reached for It that "the
river came up after me."

ARBITRATORS EVIDENCE
AVILL HEAR ARGUMENTS OF AT
TORNEYS LATER IN SALEM
TOAVNSHIP DAMAGE CASES.
The Cases Have Been Pending In
Local Court Slnco 11)11 Oscar
Bunnell, F. H. Crngo nnd C. M.
Betz AVero Arbitrators.
Two cases which have been pend
ing in the courts here since 1911
against Salem township, to recover
damages, were given over for set
tlement before arbitrators Tuesday
of this week. Three cases 'wero put
up for arbitration but they wero
treated at the same hearing.
Arbitrators Oscar Bunnell, Fran
cis H. Crago and C. M. Betz, heard
the evidence in the matters under
dispute Tuesday. From the evidence
of several witnesses it would seem
that on the evening of Novmber 11,
1909, between seven and eight
o'clock, Krelger and his wife wero
driving along tho road leading from
Ledgedale. There is a steep down
grade and not far from that village
there is a hairpin turn in tho road.
It was dark and Krelger thought ho
was at the turn, but Instead ho was
several rods from It. The result was
that he drove directly off tho em
bankment and team, wagon and oc
cupants went down. Kreiger and his
wife were severely injured. The
team also sustained some injuries,
and the wagon was considerably
damaged. The Injuries received by
Mrs. Kreiger, said Dr. H. A. Simons,
when giving his testimony, wero per
manent, and caused her to bo, to a
certain extent, deaf. He also said
that she is still troubled with a kind
of paralysis of the face. Several wit
nesses testified to the condition and
width of tho road at this point. Most
of them said that it was a dangerous
place, especially at night unless the
person driving knew tho road thor
oughly. Supervisors John Williams, David
BIdwoll and Joseph Neville gave
their evidence for the defense, which
was ably conducted by Attorney C.
P. Searle. Attorney M. E. Simons
represented the Kreigers.
The arbitrators will hear the argu
ments of the attorneys and may pos
sibly go to the scene of the accident
before making a decision.
