According to word from
and a great flood 8wept down upon the city, refugees, more than 1.000 people were drowned
In Plqua, 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 hundreds were swept to their death. In Delaware, the Olentangy River became a lake which covered most of the city. It is estimated that from 50 to 100 were drowned. People Clinging to Trees and Telegraph Poles. People were left clinging to trees, roof tops and telegraph poles, crying for asistance. Owing to the swift current in the river the work of rescue was difficult. In Cleveland the Cuyahoga River swept through the manufacturing district in the flats, closed down hundreds of mills and left more than 60,000 workers idle. The East Third street bridge was destroyed when a big steamer was swept from its moorings and crashed into it. Thousands of dollars worth of lumber was swept from the river and out into the lake. Firemen were, kept busy dynamiting lumber Jams at the bridges. In Youngstown 25,000 workmen, were forced to quit work when most of the big industries were shut down by the flood. All bridges In the city are
guarded. In Piqua the militia has been call ed from Toledo to aid work.

Thousands have been forced to desert their homes. Water burst through a wall into the. municipal light plant, and in a few seconds was nine feet deep, the employes barely escaping with their lives. More than 100 homes at Marion are filled with water to the second floors through the breaking of the Mlssissin-

The Little and Big Blue rivers broke the levees at Shelbyville and the vat-

Floods Prevent Trip.
Owing to the floods Mayor Knotts
and City Engineer Melton of Gary were unable to set out for Indianapolis to
day to attend a committee meeting of
the Indiana League of Municipalities. They learned that Gary is shut off from
the capital as far as rail communica
tion is concerned.
The state league will hold Its annual
convention In Gary in June. A com

1,500 are homeless, with water and gas plants inundated. The city is without lights or fire protection and the damage is more than $1,000,000. Schools and all business have been suspended. Wild Cat creek is a quarter of a mile
wide in the heart of Kokomo, five feet above the previous . high water
mark. Five hundred persons are living in the second Ktorles of their homes, receiving provisions by boat. This work is made difficult because the current is swift and rafts cannot be used, there being only a few boats available. Dike Breaks At Muncie. The dyke at the water plant in Mun

Many families whose homes had escaped destruction in the tornado were

companies of the Ohio National Guard are aiding the police in rescuing families from flood-menaced homes.
First Word of Disaster.
The first direct word out of the city
after the breaking of the levee was a long distance telephone message to
Richmond. Ind., from Frank Purviance.

streets, and there is no relief in sight,' he asid. Telephone communication with Dayton was established for a few mlnutea last night, then was broken again. One report said the water stood twenty to forty feet deep in some of the streets. A telephone operator in the Dayton
office, who established communication wijh Richmond for a few minutes, said bodies were floating past the window of the office. The operator begged the local offices to send an appeal for aid to Governor Cox of Ohio.
Like a Tidal Wave.
The telephone operator at Liberty.
Ohio, a small town west of Dayton, es- .
ablished communication with the local
exchange late today. He reiterated the
story told by the Dayton operator. ( Just before the wire to Liberty failed the operator said the levee near the
Main street bridge had just gone out and the water was pouring Into the town' like a tidal wave. He asked
that aid be rushed to the town. i
Railway officials at Xenia, twenty-
five miles east of Dayton, receivea word late this afternoon that 30,000 persons were homeless in Dayton and
that a number had been killed. At that time lt still was raining and the river rising. ,
Three-quarters of the city Is under
water. Four big business buuaings are burning, one of them being the vast National Cash Register plant. The
property loss will be $10,000,000.
Four suburbs of the city, Edgemont,
North, Dayton, Riverdale and Dayton View, have been inundated.
It Is understood that the catastrophe was caused by the breaking of the Lewiston reservoir, north of Dayton. A rush of water from twenty to forty feet deep swept through the streets according to this report. Relief Train Started. A relief train from Xenia was started
to Dayton loaded with suppiles and was expected to reach Dayton before midnight. Red Cross officials are being rushed
to the city from Cincinnati to direct the rescue work. The telephone operator at Phonetown, eight miles north of Dayton, said last night that reports from Dayton at 6 o'clock were that there was nine

The Western Union operator at Dod-
son, Ohio, says the omce is nwea wun men who have fled from Dayton. Looters are shooting people down in the streets, according to these refugees.
The Fifth street bridge at Dayton was washed down against the railroad bridge. Both bridges are being dynamited. At 3 o'clock this afternoon a young woman telephone operator at Dayton was in direct communication with Governor Cox at Columbus. She said she was the last person remaining in the exchange building and that there were seven feet of water in the main street at that time. As she was talking she said the Leonard building across the street, opposite the City Hall, collapsed. Scores of person were believed to have been , in the building at the time.

The Busy Bees will give a chicken
There is much joy around the Gary
city hall. The prodigal son has return
ed. No longer Is the Gary Tribune and its great editor. Homer J. Carr. a bitter enemy of Mayor Knotts. They are now bosom, friends.
What accomplished this great mir
acle? Mr. Carr has been admitted to the public printing trough and by vir
tue of an order of the Gary board of public works will share with the Knotts organ, the Post, In the city
printing. A half share is worth sev
eral thousand dollars. At The Knotts Trough.
This is the second flop that the Trib-
nue has made within recent months. It flopped from the republican party to the bull moose party. Now the bull
moosers are deserted for the Knotts
democracy and the moosers are out In
the cold
"You got to hand it to Tom for mak
ing his enemies feed out of his hand,
eald one of the city hall contracting
gang. "Tom now has two newspapers
which he will be able to dictate to and
Homer will have to come around daily
for his order, believe me." Ball Moose in Deserted. Over at the Post editorial rooms things weren't so rosy today. The Post bunch object to seeing Homer at the public printing trough. And Homer was not only at the trough but he had both of his fore feet into it and a full
pass from Jiis honor for permission to
stay there as long aa he is "good." . Glooms also settled among the bull moose followers. The party has .now
lost Its only daily paper In this part
of the state and some of the more In-" dignant members are for reading the
flopper out of the party forwith.
Knotts a Fine Fellow Now. It Is recalled that in the 1909 city election Knotts threw out a bait and lead the Tribune to his support in the same manner. Homer deserted the republican cause and was strong for his honor. Eighteen months ago there was a falling out and The Tribune loudly demanded that Knotts be kicked out of the city hall and named and designated him as "Gary's greatest stumbling block." Time mellowed things and Carr was allowed by Knotts to have a toy job as park commissioner.
Tt is rumored that Knotts and a
Tribune representative were closeted
together for two hours. Then the printing award.
