train, Is a detachment of the St Joseph
police force under the leadership of Chief
OF Police Frans and also a detachment
Of firemen from the same place. Able
bodied men, who were swimmers and
oarsmen, were picked up by the train
from all points along the line and their
work has been most effective.
SHOREY PEOPLE IN LUCK
The district in and about Shorey is one
of those which has had but little care
from the workers of Topeka. This was
not due to lack of sympathy for these
people but in the vast amount which was
at hand and in consequence these people
were, for the most part. left to shift for
themselves. The train from st. Joe has
changed all this and they are now in bet
ter fix than many who received earlier
attention. for they are being taken to
dry land while there are still hundreds
in North Topeka who are merely in the
larger and stronger buildings
1t was difficult yesterday to obtain any
definite information of the. work which
is being done by the St. Joe party, but
from the meager returns it is known that
they have done much to alleviate the
suffering and have saved hundreds. The
boatsmen from Lake Contrary are dressed
in their uniforms and are said to be work
ing in pairs. In this way they are able
to accomplish more with greater safety
to themselves and to the boats. The two
steam launches, have, it is reported, done
wonders and carried people from the most
dangerous places through the swiftest
current to a place of safety on the nor
thern bluffs.
A detachment Of physicians and nurses
was sent down on the train and the cars
were fitted with all hospital appliances
possible before it left st. Joe. All who
are in need of medical aid are being cared
for in the most approved fashion.
A CARLOAD OF PROVISIONS
Another train is expected from st.
Joseph today and with this. will be a car
of provisions as well as coal and other
necessaries. There will also be nine cars
of men, sent in by the Rock Island to re-
pair their tracks. AS these men cannot
go to work until the flood subsidies they
will be used in aiding the water bound
people.
The Rock Island will go to work, how
ever in rebuilding their tracks as soon as
possible. n. o. Nevill, who was across
the river yesterday and made the report
of the work which is being done by the
ST. Joseph rescuers, said that he thought
trains could be running within a week or
ten days. He believes it will take that
long to repair the tracks and bridges even
under the most favorable conditions.

GENEROSITY OF WOLFF.
sIaughtering Hogs and Cattle for To-
peka Sufferers.


Topeka Kan, June 2.-CharleS Wolff
has taken part in solving the question
of food supply for the city which ought
to endear him to the hearts of Topekans
for all time to come.
AS matters now stand he will be one
of the heaviest losers as the result Of the
flood; perhaps the heaciest individual
loser in the city. 1t is believed that his
losses cannot fall much below $4,000 in
any event, and he stands chance of los
ing 100000. 1t all depends on what he
will be able to do to save the tons of
meat that are in his warehouse, and
what damage the waters have done his
building.
Yet in spite of all this he has under
taken the task of supplying Topeka
butchers with meat at the normal price.
His greatest concern at present appears
not to be for himself or his interests, but
to supply the pressing local demand for
meat: to relieve the situation as prompt
ly as possible, and do so without in
creased cost to consumers, no matter
what the result may be to his own bank
account.
He entered on this work by Slaughtering
some animals over south of town Sunday;
his slaughtering facilities through being
given permission by the Santa Fe to use
the old Sixth street roundhouse for Othis
purpose. Although he was not enabled
to commence work until rather late in
the day, his men succeeded in killing
thirty-five head of hogs and cattle, and
Mr.. Wolff thinks that he will be enabled
to KEEP the local butchers supplied with
meat all through the trouble.
His action in doing this viii be all the
more appreciated when it is compared
with what is being done in this line in
Kansas City. Down there beefsteak is
selling at dollar a pound. That town is
all shot to pieces. The people are panic
stricken. They are besieging the stores
for supplies in such numbers that men
have stood at the doors with arms for
the purpose of preventing the people
from overrunning the places. .

Topeka, Kan. June 1.-The flood situa-
alton in Topeka tonight can be briefly
summarized thus:

Governor Bailey issued a proclamati ton
calling for help for flood sufferers of the
state.
Fifty deputy sheriffs. armed with Win
chesters, go to North Topeka to protect
property. with orders to shoot looters
whenever they are caught stealing.
GOVERNORS APPEAL
Governor Bailey's proclamation calling
for outside aid was decided upon at a
mass meeting today, when the governor
was requested to issue the call.
1t was decided to make this general
appeal for the people all along the flooded
districts of the state, as well as those in
Topeka. This plan is to make Topeka
headquarters and to distribute the aid
from here to the other parts of the state
APPEAL BY ORDERS.
There will be, in addition to this general
organizations and others through various
sources. A meeting of the representative
people Of North Topeka who are on the
south side was held today to arrange for
systematic protection of their property in
North Topeka. Immediately after the
meeting a large number of armed men
left in boats for the North Side, where
they will guard property, and their orders
are to shoot
The river is three feet below high water
mark. 1t is the opinion of experts that
the river will go down rapidly from now
on. The Blue. the Republican and the
Solomon have spent their force and the
volume of water that spreads over the
Kaw bottom will hunt it's channel
quickly.
400 LEFT YET.
The situation in the flooded district
is better than it has been for some time.
Nobody is now clinging to trees. To-
night not to exceed 400 people are in North
Topeka. The work of taking them out
began at an early hour today and it is
believed that by tonight few will be left
In the flooded town. There is no way of
getting at the amount of damage done
by the flood and vicinity. The damage
will reach two million dollars. 1t may
be much less and may exceed thatoamount.
This means an enormous loss to the farm
ers.
Governor Bailey tonight will communi-
cate with the federal authorities and
hopes he will have no trouble in secur-
ing the use of whatever means are
needed. The only fear now is an epidemic
of diseaose.
RELIEF DEPOTS.
AT relief depots, where refugees are
huddled togethere, several persons suffer-
ing from contagious diseases were re-
moved to the hospitals as rapidly as pos
siole. The absence Of good drinking wa
ter is another disease breeder. Money is
the thing most needed now and citizens
are contributing nobly. but the demand
OF the situation is great.
