RISING WATERS WASH
AWAY TOWNS IN OHIO

COLUMBUS, OHIO. March 25.-
Floods in Ohiof Indiana and Illinois are
wreaking a havoc whose toll in human
life and property damage can not he
even remotely estimated. Forty eigh.
hours of continuous rainfall has swollen
every stream and river in these states;
levees have broken; reservoirs have let
go, dams have been burst by the tons
of water backing up against them, and
the streets Of Dayton and Columbus
and cities in Indiana and Illinois have
been swept with the flood waters which
have wiped out whole families and
drowned many persons, how many it is
impossible to guess.
From Dayton, which is cut off from
the outside world by the destruction Of
all Geographic communication and the
interruption of railroad traffic, a re-
port came late to-day that 1900 per-
sons had been drowned. but there was
no means Of confirming the rumor.
The damage and the loss of life are
not confined to any particular sec
lions Of the three states but are spread
wherever there are streams and rivers
with people living on them.
Governor Cox has appealed to the
Red Cross a Washington, fearing that
there may have been a loss Of life far
beyond the estimates that have so far
been put on the fatalities. He was able
to get into communication with the
stricken city of Dayton at 1880 O'Clock
this afternoon. one operator only was
sticking to her post and she did not
know how much longer she would be-
able to stay. She could only tell the
governor that the business section II
the city was under water and that a
number of the business blocks, includ-
ing the large Leonard building on Main
street. have collapsed. This building,
which is across the street from the tel
ephone exchange. collapsed while the
governor was talking to the operator.
Thousands Homeless.

scores Of cities in the three states say
that thousands Of families are homeless
