SENATORS ABANDON
CONFIRMATION HOPE
Republican Leaders Convinced
That Taft Appointees Can
not Be Passed.

Republican Senators have lost hope Of
getting any of the political appoint
ments of President Taft confirmed.
Since the failure of yesterday, Repub-
lican leaders say tits a waste of time
to have any further executive sessions.
This means the new District Commits
sioners will fail of confirmation.
The Democrats are expected before
the session ends to propose once more
to let such Republican appointments as
they may select go through. The Re-
publican Senators will probably reject
This, because II would mean that many
oil their best friends named for office
would be turned down and they would
have to explain to "the boys" at home
how this occurred.
Most OF them prefer to let all the ap-
pointments go rather than to be accused
In their own States Of discriminating.
Whether army, navy, and diplomatic
appointments will be confirmed is
doubtful

parts OF the State that it will be
hardly less than a miracle if villages
and towns are not wiped out of exis-
tence in the southern and southeast
ern sections of Ohio. The storm is
moving south of east.
columbus was the centre of all ac-
tivities in behalf of the stricken cities.
Every hour has apparently been filled
with an accumulation of dramatic
circumstances. Pfteous appeals have
peen made by men who were sur
rounded by water and confronted bv
the approaching confiagration in the
city~of Dayton. Every human energy
has been exerted to give relief and
yet the measure of assistance has been
comparatively small. 1t is the belief,
however, that by daylight tomorrow
those imprisoned in the business sec
ton of Dayton can be relieved.
The day began by a storm signal
from the WeatherS Bureau advising
that there would be q dangerous rise
in the waters of the Muskinkum
River. All the towns along it's course,
including GAINESVILLE and Marietta,
were advised.
Before noon the situation assumed
a critical aspect at GAINESVILLE, and
the historic "Y'' bridge was blown up
with dynamite. The loss Of life in
GAINESVILLE is uncertain, becaase all
telephone communication ceased at
noon.
Marietta lies further south on the
Ohio River. 1t cannot be reached by
wire, but it is safe to assume that the
same devastating results as zanes-
vile were carried on to Marietta.
A flood situation developed in the
Naumee and Sandusky Valleys, in
Northwestern Ohio, but the danger to
life and property was nothing COM
pared with that in the South.
The one great tragedy remains the
Dayton situation. In many respects
it is absolutely without parallel in
the history of the Republic. The ear
ly morning reports were that the wa
ter was receding, and that the loss of
life would not be more than one hum
dred.

MANY EXTEND GREETING
The Pastor of Central Church With

Home Here.

Coming from Atlantic City to
Bridgeton, stepping from Central M.
E. Church in the seashore city to Cen
trail M. e. Church here, for Rev. Sher-
man Grant Pitt and Mrs. Pitt, was
like coming home, for the Bridgeton

There was but moment of formal
program. Miss Mary Cox played an
organ voluntary which was followed
by congregational singing.
Rev. J. Ward Gamble, of Trinity M.
E. Church offered a fervent prayer.
This was followed by an address of
welcome by John S. Ware. 1t was a
sincere, earnest address and express
sive of the feeling of those for whom
he spoke. Mr.. Ware emphasized the
fact that Mr.. Pitt was wanted here,
he expressed the pleasure of the
church in having him come here, and
he pledged the pastor the united sup
port of the people in the serious work
of the church.
The response by Mr.. Pitt indicated
his pleasure in being in Bridgeton,
and he anticipated that his work here
would be successful with the help
of this growing and successful church.
Miss Edith Mcpherson presented
Mrs. Pitt with large basket of beau
tiful violets and Master David Blew

fragrant boutonniere.

FIRE FOLLOWS The FLOOD
Dayton Tragedy Most DeplOrable
i'm History of the Country

The best available estimates of the
dead in the floods that ravaged Ohio
and Indiana at o'clock this morling
was that 3,166 died in Ohio and 19c
perished in Indiana, making a total
in those two States of 1852.
A round half million people were
made homeless and the property dam
age in both States viii be at least
$1OO,OOO,0O.
At Dayton, o., where the greatest
damage was done, there was still
great doubt as to the total number of
dead, but it was thought it would not
be less than $50, though Gov. Cox was
credited with the belief that 1000 was
nearer the right figure, it being his
opinion that at least 500 perished in
North Dayton alone. q
Three villages are said to have been
wiped out in Indiana and $50 are be-
lieved to have perished in Peru.
Farmers with their families are ma
rooned on railway embankments for
miles in flooded Ohio and the whole
country is desolated.
The floods spread to Western Penn
sylvania and in Western and Central
New York rivers were rising rapidly
and doing much damage, 1000 per-
sons being driven from their homes
in Olean.
The whole country opened it's pock-
etbook for the relief of the stricken
States, and supplies, money and, men
are being rushed there President
Wilson in Washington, Cow Sulzer in
Albany and Mayor Gaypor in New
York, issued appeals and led in the
relief movement.

PREPARING FOR SEASON

Down about Fortescue there is
much activity and early preparations
are made for the summer. season. A
number of the cottages there are be-
Ing remodelled and done over, and it
is said that several new cottages will
be up in readiness for the season. The
matter of a good road from Newport
to the island causes a good deal of
thought.
