Celina, o., April 2-The apprehcn-

but the greatest danger is believed
to exist on account of the high wind
that has been blowing since shutdown
and is continually getting stronger.
The gale iS from the west, and is
driving the water against the east bank
around st. Mary's, where the bank
has already been weakened. A very
large force is at work trying to save
the locks at the bulkhead. st. Mary's
is at the east end of the reservoir, and
Celina at the west end.
People Have Been Warned.
Flood signals have been given out not
only around the reservoir but also to
people along the canal to be ready to
vacate. The st. Mary's river has
broken its record, doing much damage
to the railroads and other property. A
very large force of men is also at
work on the dam OH the Celina side
of the reservoir. The exodus of people
from the reservoir district is very large,
on account of the high winds which
make the waters surge along the banks
These people know that if there is a
break at any point great calamity
will follow.
Notified to vacate at Once.
The superintendent of the canal has
notified the people occupying houses
on the south side of the Lake Erie
and Western railway In this city to
vacate at once. The railroads also
have very large forces of men bracing
their culverts against the dashing wat
ers. Besides the gangs of workmen
hundreds are engaged as watchmen
and patrolmen, ready to give WARN
ing in case of a break. The residents
of the reservoir district as we'll as
the railway and the canal officials are
more apprehensive over the high winds
than over the high waters.

Lima, o., April Flood conditions
here are the worst in years. The wat

that daughter had just died from

Russia Does Not Want India.
SUMMARY OF THE WAR NEWS
United states Flag Flying Again at New
Chwang-No More Fighting.


Chwang-No More Fighting.
London, March 31.-The latest news
from the Far East says nothing of any
more fighting. but gives a few more
"details of recent engagements. An in
teresting fact from New Chwang is
that the Russians, in view of vigor-
Gus protest from the United States
consul there, have decided TO permit
the. flying of the United States flag
on buildings belonging to United States
citizens. The British flag will also be
unmolested..
The Russians continue to allege that
the Japanese had forty killed at the
battle of Chong-Ju-which is identical
with the fight reported yesterday by
the Japs as having taken place at
'Tyronjyu" = and that their wound
ed were more numerous. On the 9TH
er hand the Japanese official report
gives five Japs killed. one being lieu
tenant. and captain and twelve 9TH
ers wounded. The Japs agree pretty
well with the Russian official report
as to the casualties on the Russian
side.
Admiral Togo's official report Of the
sixth attack on Port Arthur does not
differ materially from the one printed
in these dispatches, except that it
would appear that the Japs were part
ly successful in blocking Port Arthur,
the channel between the sunken ships
being very narrow. The ships seem
to have been taken right into the chan
mel before they were sunk.
The captain of the Han Hei. Jap
anese merchantmen. reports at Che
| foo that his ship was captured by a
Russian squadron and sunk. he and
two others alone escaping capture.
According TO a st. Petersburg dis
patch it is not denied in Russian off,
cial quarters that Captain Reitzen-
STEMS vladivostok squadron has re-
turned to port. but the officials ignore
/ the statement that the squadron has
captured any japanese warships OF
trading vessels.
Reporting the death of Commander
Hirose, who took in one of the block
| aiding ships, Admiral Togo says: Com
mander Hirose, after causing his men
| to take to the boats and not finding
Sugino [who had been killed by the
| torpedo that sank his ship] searched
through the ship three times for him.
Finding his ship gradually going down
| Commander Hirose was compelled to
give up the search and enter boat
AS he was rowing away under the
enemy's hot fire a shell struck him
| on the head. His head and part OF
his body was blown away. Only a
piece Of flesh in the boat was all that
remained of the brave officers body"

RETURN OF THE AFFLICTIoN
Central Indiana Is Again in the Grasp OF
the Raging Waters.

Suo mag ing w otcTos
Indianapolis, April 2. = While the
flood situation throughout southwest
ern Indiana is considerably improved
the heavy rains of Thursday and
Thursday night have almost duplicated
the flood stages of last week through
out central Indiana. White river near
this city has risen thirteen feet above
the low water mark, and is still ris-
ing. Manufacturing interests and
many homes in the river district are
menaced. AT Portland only three or
four business houses are above wat
er, and at Delphi the Wabash railroad
is washed away in two places. The
suburbs of Alexandria are threatened
by the high water and the inhabitants
have abandoned their homes. Rock
vile is isolated. At Marion, Muncie
and Newcastle, the situation is almost
as bad as last week
The crest of the flood in the south
western part Of the state has moved
almost to the Ohio, and it is believed
that the rivers will now carry OF the
waters, which cover several hundred
thousand acres of valuable farm land,
without further damage. Hundreds of
refugees from the inundated districts
have been brought to Evansville on q
special train sent out by the Southern
Railroad company.
At Marion. as the result Of q rain
torrent, the Mississinewa river is rap
