X. A. Hauer. salesman for the
International Motor co. was in Crystal
Falls last Wednesday in conference
with ID. f. Boyle & Co. Mr.. Hauer
car direct from Dayton. Ohio. He
lives ut Chicago and was due here last
week but his parents live az Dayton
and he went there instead He got TO
Cleveland without difficulty but from
Cleveland 20 Dayton he Rad 20 walk
SIX times on account OF washouts.
Finally ne got permission to board a
relief train and got as far as the city
limits when be had 10 get another pass
TO get by the militia guard that snr-
rounded the stricken city. After much
maneuverIng he got into the city only
to find that his parents lived across the
city and he had to wait four days be-
fore he got TO them and all of the time
he had no news ot them
When he got 60 his folks be found
them safe and sound They had been
rescued the first day and taken out Of
the second story Of their home in n row
boat. Mr.. Hauer says that the stories
of the flood are much exaggerated in
regard TO the depth 60 which the water
reached and the deaths He estimated
the dead at not over 100. The damage
to property will be greater. ne thinks,
than the estimates and hundreds Of
poor people have been deprived Of their
homes and almost All Of the small mer.
chants are ruined
He says that the waters came with
such II rush that people in automobiles
We're not able 10 get away. Many had
TO rush into the first buildiDg at hand.
The wafer attained depth Of from II
10 "A feet. In q great many places il
washed the asphalt pavement of the
concrete base. so great was its force.
In one street :, 900. 600 of lumber
had been fioaied from the near by yards
and deposited ia the street. He thinks
that Dayton will be- many. many years
in recovering from the blow.
