Indianapolis awoke to find the waters

During the night the water advanced
upon the exclusive residence section
along Fall creek. 1t tore away one bridge.
destroyed the city's most pretentious
driveway, and forced the families living
along its banks to desert their palatial
homes. A few hours before they had no
idea they were In any danger, and were
awakened by the militiamen to be or
dered from the threatened buildings, only
to find every hotel in the city full. They
were cared for at the homes Of friends.
The Washington Street bridge over the
White river that connects indianapolis
and West Indianapolis. which was closed
was torn apart by the waters. the floor of
the structure being carried away. With
the breaking of day also came the propo-
sition Of feeding the refugees to the num-
Der Of 10000.
The city has appropriated enough to
defray this expense today. but more
will be needed tomorrow. A fund has
been started, and 1t is believed this
will solve the problem.
It was believed by telephone and tele-
graph company oficials here that they
soon would be able TO establish q more

scores are reported to be dead, and
where many persons are suffering for
