SEVERE INJURY DONE BUSINESS 'if- . Richmond Feels Effect of Blockaded Railroad and Interurban Lines.

"All of the losses resulting rrom tbe flood are not confined to the stricken districts themselves' said a Richmond business man last night, "for In every line of business its effects are felt. Right here in Richmond the losses in retail business and to manufacturing establishments will mount into the thousands. Take for instance some of the city's big concerns who are not only held back on shipments, but are prevented from getting in material for the manufacture of goods that are ordered. Scarcely a concern in Richmond has escaped from losses greater or less. "The absolute abandonment of both railroad and interurban service has had its effect also on the retail business and hundreds of patrons of the city's establishments have failed to pay their usual weekly shopping visits. It will be weeks before things are reKiortd to the normal in a business way." " Sunday Services At the Churches St. Andrew's Catholic Fifth and ". r.sh C streets.

watch the men working, and there I learned quite a bit about motorcycles. The knowledge I gained there has ince been of great value to me. I bad often ridden tandem on a motorcycle, but wanted to be master of the machine I rode and patiently waited for that time to come. A short time afterward I was the proud possessor of a motorcycle of my own. I had no trouble whatever in operating the machine. The first day I rode all morning and then went out again in the afternoon. I had what they call the 'motorcycle craze. One of the first runs taken by MIbs Lawler was a 75-mile endurance contest of the Kenosha Motorcycle Club, of which she is a member. At that time she had ridden her motorcycle about three months, and entered the contest against riders of several years' experience. The roads were rough and she had the misfortune to run a taok in her tire this puncture she mended herself, with the aid of the only tool they were permitted a piece of Iron. However she only lost ten minutes in making repairs, and arrived home on the minute. She received a watch as a reward for the good record she made. Miss Lawler also entered the Milwaukee Sentinel Tour, which covered three days. This was a very severe test of the endurance of both rider and motorcycle, as it rained during the greater part of the run, and the cyclist found , it very hard riding through the mud. But Miss Lawler's mount brought her safely home on schedule time. Miss Lawler has also taken several trips about Wisconsin and Illinois, and one trip from Chicago to Milwaukee by way of the Lake Shore road In four and a half hours. "After I had my motorcycle I could see no pleasure in taking a 'train for the lakes,' she says. "I just strap a suitcase on the carrier and ride my motor. In all my trips I have never had a serious accident. "In regard to motorcycling for women, I think it is just great. A year ago I was sickly and spent a great deal of time taking medicine of some kind. My parents thought riding a motorcycle would kill me, but instead I found that it was the best thing ever, and when meal time came I was always ready to eat.'

YEAST IS BROUGHT HERE Hi A MACHINE

Will Be Used Immediately By Bakers to Relieve the Bread Famine. The Garner company from Cincinnati sent a machine from their branch office in Cincinnati with 600 pounds of yeast to this city yesterday. The machine left Cincinnati yesterday morning at 6 o'clock and arrived at 11:30 p. m. The yeast will be used by local bakers to relieve tbe bread famine here. A large percent of the bread will be shipped to Dayton where this article of food is greatly needed. HEW CASTLE GIRL IS STILL Indianapolis t Detective Hunting Little Miss Believed Kidnapped. is NEWCASTLE. Ind., March 29. The people of thlc city are eagerly waiting for word from Harry C. Webster, the Indianapolis detective, who has charge of the search for little Catherine Winters, the nine-year-old child, who bo mysteriously disappeared March 20. Webster was to start for Plattsville, Wis., last Tuesday, to ascertain if the chilB was with her grandmother, Mrs. Eliza Whisler at that place, and he was to telegraph here as soon as he completed his investigation. Nothing has been heard from Webster since he left and it is not known if he reached that point or is delayed somewhere on the road. Newcastle has no telegraph service with any large city, except Indianapolis, and it may be that Webster is not able to get through the message for which the citizens here are so anxiously waiting. Dr. Winters in Search of Gypsies. The failure to get word from Webster, however, has not caused any abandonment in the search here nor lessened the excitement in the search in this locality. Winters has dropped everything in the way of business and is devoting all his time -to the search for his child, "which he still declares was stolen by gypsies. He started today for Westfield, Hamilton county,, to investigate the information given him in a letter from a minister at that place that a gypsy wagon and a strange child is at that place. The police today made public an announcement that has caused a feeling of uneasiness here. A few days be fore little Catherine disappeared a man in a buggy stopped Helen, the seven-year-old daughter of Calvin Milligan, saying he knew her papa and mama well, and offered to take her home. The child climbed into the buggy and as they passed the Milligan home the little girl said: "There is where my papa lives." The man drove a short distance and then put the child on the -sidewalk, and a half block distant he abandoned the horse and buggy and disappeared. A lumber dealer found the team and returned it to the stable where it was hired. The police kept this matter quiet and have searched for the man on the theory that he had mistaken the wrong child for the Winters girl and when he found he had the wrong child he permitted her to go. Little Girl Was Insulted. At the livery stable the man was described as being about 225 pounds, full round face and walked with a limp in his left leg. It was at first denied tbe man took any liberties with the child, but last night the chief admitted that the little girl had been insulted, but not in any way injured. It did not take long for this story to be known, and it has added greatly tc the e xcitement here. The parents of little girls are alarmed, fearing a degenerate is prowling about in this vicinity. No trace of the man has been found The police also gave out the fact last night that they had heard from Ivan C. Whisler, the uncle of the missing girl and half brother to Miss Ida Chalfant. Four days after the Winters child disappeared Chief Bosloug re ceived a telegram from Whisler af Madison, Wis., which is about one hundred miles from Plattsville. The telegram asked for particulars, and in structed that the answer be sent ii care of the Madison police department. A telegram was sent to the chief of pc lice, but was not answered.

(By Staff Correspondent) DAYTON, O., March 29, (1:00 a. m.) Bands of looters were giving the troops in West Dayton considerable trouble all tonight and it das difficult to apprehend them owing to the fact that the city was in utter darkness. The homeless people kept close to their temporary places of shelter fearing they might be

shot by the watchful guards. Throughout the night the crack of

rifles could be heard every now and then in various sections, showing that the vampires were busy and the guards were vigilent. Major Hubbler of the Ohio National Guard, stated at midnight that a number of looters had been captured and would be court martialed and if found guilty would be shot. Special officer, Robert Weese, was shot and killed by a negro looter tonight. The murderer has not been apprehended. A number of crooks, the militiamen state, are wearing uniforms similar to those worn by the guardsmen to get beyond the picket lines. Two automobile loads of soldiers have been sent out to run down these outlaws. Late yesterday an attachment of United States regular infantrymen arrived in Dayton and it is said they are patrolling the

central district of east Dayton. Their arrival was hailed with delight by the flood victims who know they will stamp out all disorders in a relentless fashion. Drugs are desired by the Dayton physicians, who also fear the carcasses of dead animals littering the streets will cause an epidemic. The relief committee says that it will be necessary to keep the city supplied with food for several days and milk is wanted badly for the babies, many of whom are in a critical condition for lack of proper nourishment. The waters are falling fast. Two companies of naval reserves from Toledo and Cleveland, accompanied by a trainload of boats, arrived yesterday and have been of the greatest assistance in rescuing marooned inhabitants. Edgemont.is the one district of Dayton now most in need of attention of the relief workers. Residents there have been without food for days. The Richmond automobile drivers are being given a strenuous workout and are kept busy distributing supplies from their base at the Longfellow school. Everyone is loud in his praise for the assistance the flood victims are being given by Richmond people. A man and a woman were rescued late yesterday on the rafters of the attic of their home. The woman had given birth during the flood but her condition and the baby's was not serious. Farmers from three and four miles south of Dayton have brought in wagons to the Nationar Cash Register Co., bodies which floated down with the torrent and were stranded on their farms when the water subsided. The line of residences of the wealthy, along the east side of the Miami river, from Williams street south, were wiped out when the levee at Williams street broke and let a wall of water even with the second floors down upon them. In the northern part of Riverdale the water was thirty feet deep. One cause of the disaster was the Ohio and Erie canal which runs through the center of Dayton from the north. As long as the canal did not overflow its banks it served to carry the water through the city, but when it overflowed by the breaking of the levee, it carried the flood into the center of the stricken city. West Dayton probably suffered the least of any part of the city, only 20 or 30 being reported dead there. A train arrived from Greenville this afternoon and its supplies were immediately distributed. Edgemont, a suburb on the south of Dayton, has suffered badly and many people there had nothing to eat until yesterday afternoon. People in the Beckel hotel report that they saw a number of men and women commit suicide in the building across the street rather than be drowned. An appeal has been made by Dayton for Candles and lanterns, as many as possible, and for automobile tires. Much of the relief work is done by autos and the glass in the streets is playing havoc with the tires. The receding floods, in Dayton reveal new horors in many parts of the stricken city. Under the layer of brown mud, which covers the streets to the depth of from one to two feet, relief parties are uncovering a number of bodies. All of the corpses found in the east side are being taken to the National Cash Register Co., for identification. In the north side-they are buried without being identified. It is absolutely impossible to estimate the loss of life in Dayton. In some places corpses may be seen through the windows of the houses. Only one or two lives were lost in the Algonquin hotel. They were employes. The confusion in the business district is indescribable. Articles of all descriptions are strewn about the streets in the mud. A man who spent a day and a night on top of the Union depot said that a number of horses were caught on the first floor of the building in the first rush of the flood and dashed to pieces against an iron barred fence. Lamp posts were bent double and in many parts every building except the strongest stone and brick collapsed under the 3trength of the flood. The big jewelry stores of Dayton are under heavy guard as looters are very active. The looters are not being shot in large numbers as was first reported but all the available jails are full of them. The Dayton Telephone company is making strenuous jfforts to resume at least a partial telephone service and expect Bread lines have been established in all parts of the city and ff is being served to the victims. In the northern part of the tity a number of people are still on housetops or in the second :tories of the houses. Some of the people have refused to leave. At the Third street bridge the water extends three or four quares east of the bridge and on the west side two or three quares. The water on the bridge is about knee deep. 3 have a few phones working before noon.
