FEAR EPIDEMIC OF DIPHTHERIA AND TYPHOID (Continued From Page One.) are filled with uncounted and uncharted victims. Several children have been born during the flight of the women from tha waters that have not been recorded. Many families have become separated and have found no means of learning of each other's fate. Citizens have been reported to have been seen floating with faces down In the liquid mud and have been seen later In active relief work. SLOWLY BRINGING ORDER FROM CHAOS. All this muddle of facts and efforts is being whipped into shape and within a day or so there will be a record on which some rational information of the number of dead and destitute will be reached. Pueblo is going at its work In a way that will show results, sorely, but not till dayu and much hard werk has been put behind it. The property loss will be arrived at !n a short time for the evidence of what has been done in this way is at hand to any who explores the flood area. Miles of railroad track are out. Several department stores have been ruined completely and others suffered a total loss of all the goods in the basement and first floors. In many eases on Main street the water swept In the rear or front of the stores and gutted them. Lumber yards all over the city were fired by the quicklime, created by the downpour that fell. Houses were exerted from the bottoms into the business section. A freight shack ao.;ght refuge from floods five blocks from its foundation in the entrance of a downtown garage. Humble dwellings bumped into the plate glass windows of the largest department stores several blocks away. NO BUILDING IN

FLOOD AREA ESCAPES. Bank* were turned into a mas* of debris and the vaults toppled over. Every public utility Is practically out of commission. Automobiles by tbe hundreds went rolling gaily down the main street. Freight cars were tossed about like frail boxes. Water and fire destroyed the greater part of the goods In the stores and warehouses. There Is no building that, in the entire flood area, which covers about live square wiles within the city limits of Pueblo, that Las not been seriously damaged and the majority are a total loss. That the damages to prop erty will amount to $10,000,000 is the most conservative estimate. But the greatest question that confronts the city today is what is to be done about rebuilding. That many business men will be ruined Is a certainty. There were few that carried any flood insurance. This problem is seen on the faces of the city. It is leen In the nervous men of affairs who are bustling about attending to everyone's afeirs, in the workmen waiting patiently for passes to get into the vicinity of their jobs, and the womeu at the relief headquarters and in the long face* of the women and men holding their children and a pillow slip full of belongings on their laps. They have begun to grasp the enormity of the tragedy that has swept their city and there Is a feeling of suspense and threats of panic when the mention is made of possible further rampages of tbe Arkansas and the Fountain and cloudbursts. RIVER GONE MAD SPREADS TERROR. A river gone mad holds the suffering refugees in constant terror. Sweeping down the rampaging Arkansas, anew wall of water let loose by the breaking of a dam above here, the first warning of which came near Trinidad, struck the city another blow Pueblo's population, its nerve already shattered from three days of fighting the flood and fire caused by lightning, was ordered to stand by. Troops, racing with death, rushed In all directions to warn the inhabitants of tbe oncoming five-foot wall of water Women and children, obtaining their first rest since the flood broke Friday night, were aroused and ordered to higher ground. Engines raced up and down tbe valley as far as rails had been repaired, their sirens sounding the shrill notice of the new danger. It was the fourth wave of water to attack the city—two striking Friday night, when the first cloudburst deluged the city: the second when the levee gave way and the third when the beaver dam thirty-five miles west of the city, gave way Sunday afternoon. Tue fourth flood came before the waters had receded from the Sunday deluge. The water, after rising rapidly, reached its crest and started to recede again about 7 a. in. It did not reach tho mark set by Sunday night's rise. Reports were spreading, however, that s sudden rise had occurred in the Fountain River, but the rumor could not be verified and its authenticity was doubted because of conditions in the Arkansas. Both riv v rs run parallel through the city SERIOUSLY HAMPER RELIEF WORKERS. Although the new floods have not taken any lives as far as could be learned, nor caused any great additional loss In

property, they have seriously hampered relief work. Roads constructed to bring food and clothing from Colorado Springs ara washed out with every new rise of the water. Disease has appeared In the wake of the flood. Cases of diphtheria and pneumonia attacked the children, especially. As the warning calls were sounded ol the new flood’s approach, mothers In some Instances were forced to wrap their sick children In blankets and carry them to safety. A breach of half a mile driven in the levee by the rushlitft swirling waters, has placed the city at the mercy of every little freshet along the headwaters of he Arkansas. As soon as united efforts toward clearing away the wreckage is launched, another heavy downpour or anew flood alarm drives the workers to cover. Arrangements are being made for the building of Pueblo’s levees along the Arkansas. Local State and Federal financial cooperation to reconstruct the levee which gave way during Friday’s cloudburst was planned. They hope to build an impregnable wall against the fury of the mountain streams. Following a conference here late Sunday between Governor Shoup of Colorado and leading citizens, R. S. Gast, prominent a torney of the city, was delegated to work out the plan of financial cooperation. Much is expected locally from President Harding's proffered offer of Federal assistance. Governor Shoup will present to the Federal Government the plan to aid Pueblo save herself from similar disasters in the future. Governor Shoup, It is expected, will officially declare Pueblo's plight an emergency entitling the city to a portion of the State's emergency fund. Attorney Gast tn discussing Pueblo's need of financial support In the levee building p-oject, said: RIVER NORMALLY MORE LIKE BROOK. ‘ The Arkansas normally is more like a brook than a river. But from tts narrow bed it spread Friday to a torrent a mile wide. “The flood washed out our best business district. It has left the city without public utilities, endangering the public health. As long as the levee remains unrepaired or too weak to withstand another shock, the same disastrous things can happen. Because this Is a public health question and in a way a military question and because in its present weakened condition, the city alone cannot accomplish what is desired, we hope that both Federal and State government will aid the new levee project. We have as yet not had time to develop our plaus fully. The cost Is an engineering problem which will have to be Investigated. Without Federal aid Pueblo's flood problem is unsolvable."

SOFT PEDAL PUT ON HOTEL RAID —l Member of City Police Department Said to Have Been Found in Search. “Soft pedal’ stuff continued to bo put over In the Clco hotel raid case In city court today. A raid on the Cico hotel, 124 East New York street, early Sunday morning, resulted in the arrest of Luther C. Woodward, 47, on the charge of keeping a house of ill fame and the arrest of two men and two women on statutory charges. The raiders did not arrest an unmarried member of the city police department, who. It is said, was found in a room with a married woman. They Just made a note of the names of the patrolman and the woman and left them at the hotel. It Is possible that they night not have arrested one of the other men had the police known that this man is said to hold a position at the city hall.

Two men giving their names as John Smith, 28, and Mark Smtth, 2K and two women, Marlon Long, 22, and Lillian Davis, 36, were arrested on statutory charges. An attorney appeared for the four, pleaded guilty for them In city court and then this same attorney went to the city ederk's office and paid each of the fines and costs which was $1 and costs in each case. Charges of keeping a resort against Woodward were continued until June 28. Later it was learned that someone tore up the Woodward affidavit and tossed it into the waste basket. Judge Pritchard started an investigation and went to the city clerk's office where the Judge was unable to find any record of the Woodward case. Judge Pritchard said that be had made the flndlnga in the cases of the two Smiths and the two women “on recommendation of the police officers who made the arrests and the prosecuting attorney.’' One of the two charges on which the four were arrested carries a jail sentence and in cases of that kind It always has been the policy of Judge Pritchard to enforce the law and require the defendants in the case to appear before him in city court. “If tho Woodward affidavit is not found anew affidavit will be issued," Judge Pritchard stated The raid was made by Lieut. William Cox, Lieut. Fred Winkler and Sergeants Baker, Teeter and Richter, and four patrolmen.

Chief of police Jerry Kinney, admitted he had received a report of the raid and that he had the names of the woman and police officer, who is an ex-soldier he said. The chief said he would start an "Investigation" and might suspend the patrolman. The chief also added that he had heard many times that ,’hey “were going wild" at the Cico Hotel, and that he ordered the raid.

INGROWN TOE NAIL TURNS OUT ITSELF

A noted authority says that a few drops of “Outgro" upon the skin surrounding the ingrowing nail reduces inflammation and pain and so toughens the tender, sensitive skin underneath the toe nail, that it can not penetrate the flesh, and the nail turns naturally outward almost over nignt. "Outgro” Is a harmless, antiseptic manufactured for chiropodists. However, anyone can buy from the drug store a tiny bottle containing directions.—Advertisement.

Hines, State superintendent of public instruction, was received which stated that “Lee Swails holds a two years’ State high school license.” Fesler then promptly announced that he was disqualified under the law. The next step will be that Deverieks will probably present his bond to Auditor Fesler which probably will be ap-, proved. The county commissioners probably will refuse ot authorie the paynjent of any money to Swells. In the meantime, Superintendent Swails is occupying office. BOARD CLAIMS IT CAN ABOLISH TOWNSHIP. The county commissioners claim they have the authority to abolish a township by changing the boundaries. The legal question will be whether that act of the commissioners automatically abolishes the office of trustee of Pike Township. The tax rate for Pike Township is $1.16 and that of Wayne is sl. By the act of the commissioners the rate of Wayne Township probably will be increased a few cents and the rate will be lowered In Pike. Auditor Fesler states that the entire question will hinge on the point whether the action of the commissioners vacates the office of the trustee in Pike Township. Following the stormy meeting of the board, the members mot in the office of Swails to conduct other business. Some of the members who voted for Deverieks did not attend this meeting. Swails is a Democrat and has held the office for eleven years, it was stated. Dpverlcks is a Republican. The object In abolishing Pike township was to unseat Trustee Purdy. Then the commissioners figured that the vote would bo tlod and Auditor Feslor. would cast the deciding vote for Deverieks. As the vote Rtands the members who supported Swails refused to vote on the motion placed by Ilecker. Although the record probably will show a tie with Fesler casting the deciding vote.
