Storage Dam.
Columbus, O.. March 27.-There is
no change in the estimates Of the dead
In this city, the number being placed
at from 100 to $50.
The low lying sections are still I'M
der the rushing waters Of the Scioto
and Olentangy rivers. The isolation
OF the western section again became
real when the last remaining bridge
gave way.
There was panic when announce
ment was made that the storage dam,
several miles north Of the city, had
broken, sending Its food down the
Scioto.
Patrolmen, soldiers and citizens
went out In automobiles, footing horns,
ringing gongs and calling through
megaphones a warning to every one
to seek safety In the higher parts OF
the east side. Thousands fed, while
many, stunned by the news, collapsed
from fear or gave way to hysteria.
1t was more than an hour before
the report was officially denied. Re

HUNDREDS ARE
DEAD IN PERU
Less Than Block of City Not
Under Water

South Bend, Ind, March 27-An Off
cfal report received by Mayor Charles
e. Goetz Of South Bend was that 300
people were drowned In Peru, that no
bodies had been recovered and that
there was less than one block of the
entire city that was not under water.
Several small relief boats attempted
to venture into the city, but were
forced back on account of the current.
Many persons were still clinging to
roofs, and several groups stood upon
high places attempting to signal for
help. 1t was believed that later sew
eral motorboats brought from Winona
lake would be able to breast the food,
The daylight showed how great was
the devastation wrought when the Wa.
bash river burst its banks. Houses
half submerged were drifting away.
other buildings appeared to be topping
over, bodies were recovered floating
with the debris In the streets, and only
spire indicated the location of
church.
Faithful Phone Operator.
All the city officials were too busy
with relief work to answer INQUIRIES
for information which came in from
all directions over the few telephone
wires In operation. The chief source
OF information was telephone opera
tor In a downtown building who, sur
rounded by water, had stuck to his post
without food for twenty-four hours.
From Indianapolis comes the word
that in West indianapolis it is general
ly estimated that at least 200 persons
were drowned when the Morris street
levee broke. An unveriied rumor Ia
that large number Of refugees sought
shelter in Wolfe's hall until the crowd
ed floor gave way, and scores may
have been killed or seriously injured.
Families In one story homes were at
the mercy Of the sudden rush Of water
that followed the break in the levees.
u is believed the bodies Of these peo-
pie who are supposed to have been
trapped in the houses will be found
when the waters recede.
Sixty passenger trains are shut out
Of Indianapolis on the lines entering
from the west. and all the passengers
are practically sharing the lot of the
homeless refugees. The Assumption
parochial school, in charge Of Father
Joseph Weber, is sheltering and feed
Ing about hundred women and chill
