I walked down celved a few days ago by Mrs. F. Holem town and back twice, tha is about six of Indiana Harbor. The "letter was miles. I wanted to see if a friend who

wfiten by Mrs. J. D. Hetlman and postmarked Dayton, is as follows: "I don't know what to write. If I

wrote all that every one has been through it would take a piece of paper as long as from here to Indiana Harbor. You have read the papers, but the papers could never tell you how awful it Is. You would have to see with your own eyes.' Houses in the middle of the streets, furniture everywhere on roofs. Every place you look the city is In ruins. I saw horses dead on roofs, and In houses with their heads fast In windows. They have hauled dead horses past our house for a week and dead horses are piled high. Houses at he foot of our street were covered to the roofs. They saved people in boats and

landed them in front of our house. The j neighbors helped each other move their things upstairs. My things are all up- j stairs and if you could see this house and how dirty things are, the women as , well as the men are mud to he waist, j Rubber boots are In style in Dayton. j "The rich as well as the poor had to j

get in the bread line to get things to eat. We had to run twice, the second time we took some clothes tied up in sheets. I never expected to see the place again. We ran almost two miles to the hills and' there were 25,000 people on the hill when we got there If it had not been for Mr. Ladd, who lived next door, I am afraid we would have frozen to death when wa came back. He had a coal stove upstairs. It took Jack two days to get to the furnace after the water got out of the cellar. I was so glad the furnace was --not broken. I did not have my clothes off for two days and nights. The city was on fire and I watched the fire from my attic window for two nights. It was awful. Wc have. no gas, no electric lights and no water until a few days ago, and I am afraid to use that unless I boil It. We cooked in the furnace for a few days, then the Standard Oil company pave away little coal oil stoves and coal oil. I got one with one burner. I can get along on that till we get the gas.

Is sick in bed had been drowned, but my friends was safe. The water was

six feet deep in their first floor. Twelve miles walking in one week was too much. I had such a hard time getting down town, you had to 'climb over everything from a house to a dead horse and; then the soldiers stopped you and if you did not have' a good excuse you could not get .through. If they catch loafers or strangers on the streets they put them to work. . "Mud, mud is all you can see. It is up to your knees in more than half the houses in Dayton, in the fine homes as well as the poor homes. I think there must be 2,000 nianos ruined."We have not seen more than one or

U. S. STEEL EARNINGS LARGE

Earnings of the first quarter for steel companies in general -reflected the large bookings at good prlpes on steel contracts In the last half of 1912. The United States Steel corporation is expected to show between $37,000,000 and ' $38,000,000 for the first three months of 1913, or over $2,000,000 more than for the last quarter of 1912. The wonderful improvement in the steel Industry during 1912 can be seen when the earnings for the first quarter last year, which only totaled 617,826,973, are compared with the Indicated earnings for the first quarter this year. If over $37,000,000 is shown for the period In 1913 a balance of over $10,000,000 over all charges and dividends will be shown, out of which depreciation charges may not exceed $3,000,000 or $4,000,000. It is expected that earnings

PIG IRON PRICES V GO STILL LOWER So much business is on their book and specifications are still so heavy that steel manufacturers are complacent under the much smaller bookings of new contracts, according to the Iron Age. Buyers are no longer spurred by the probability of higher prices la ter. Whilje pig Iron buyers have waited prices have worked lower, and tha descent in the last two weeks has been rapid, so much so as to furnish buyers fresh reasons for holding oft. The proportion of southern Iron sales at $12, Birmingham, for No. 2 has lncreased. Some Inquiry for export has developed, and 6,000 tons of Alabama iron has been sold for Europe, mostly on the basis of $12.60, Birmingham, for No. 2. The basic Iron bought by. an eastern Pennsylvania steel company amounted to 40,000 tons, distributed among fire furnace companies. Offers of $16.25 by another buyer, or 25 cents below the

Another instance in Indiana appointments Is found at Greenfield, where President Wilson has sent to the Senate the name of a man for postmaster who has always fought the machine organisation in the Democratic party, and one whom the organization has alway fought. These instances are pointed to as indicating that the machine men are going to have a hard row to travel. This is one thing that, causes some of the

Democrats to wonder whether Peter' J. Kruyer. of South Bend, will really land the appointment as collector of Internal revenue for the Indianapolis district. Kruyer is a deep-dyed machine organization man, being district chairman of the Thirteenth district. Some of the machine men are. saying that they would not be at all surprised if the President would turn Kruyer down and appoint some anti-organization man instead. This would be a sad blow to the machine. - '" There is a feeling, amongr a good
