Flood Raises
Prices of Food

INDIANAPOLIS. March 27.-That
Indianapolis may be under martial
law before the day is over was
strongly intimated today by Governor
Ralston when he learned that prices
on all foodstuffs had been increased
by commission merchants.
The price of eggs has been advanced
ten cents since yesterday, with cor
respondingly higher prices on other
commodities.
overnor Ralston is very indignant,
but declined to discuss the matter
further until he completed an investi-
cation. Before the supply of breay
available on the west side had been
exhausted today, loaves were selling
at twenty cents each. The supply Of
meat has been exhausted
That section of Indianapolis lying
west of the river is the poorest in

milk. coffee, bread and butter was
practically exhausted before noon

FEW REPORTED DEAD IN
EASTERN OHIO, THOUGH
PROPERTY LOSS is LARGE

CAMBRIDGE. O., March o. (Via
long distance telephone to Pittsburgh.
With the Tuscarawas, .Walhonding
and Muskingum rivers flooded as
they have never been flooded before
and the three valleys covered with
water, in some places five miles wide.
Eastern Ohio is suffering tremendous
damage. So far as can be learned
here, the loss of life has not been
heavy, GAINESVILLE being the only city
from which more than one death has
been reported.
General r. B. Brown, late Repub
lican candidate for governor of Ohio
and prominent resident of Zanes
vile, telephoned 10 personal friends
here from GAINESVILLE today just be-
fore the wires failed that the reports
of casualties In that city had been
exaggerated and. while the property
loss was tremendous and conditions
were constantly growing worse he
felt confident that no great number
of persons had been drowned.
The Tuscarawas and Walhonding
rivers unite at Coshocton to form the
Muskingum river. and II is the water
from these streams that poured down
on GAINESVILLE, thirtytwo miles be-
low. Bridges were washed out be-
tween Coshocton and GAINESVILLE, rail-
road traffic has been suspended, and
there is no wire connection. At
Coshocton the Walhonding Valley
branch of the Pennsylvania railroad
crosses the valley on a long steel
bridge, and it was reported here this
morning that 500 feet of the bridge
went down soon after midnight. The
water was still rising at that hour
Above Coshoeton on the Walhond-
! ing river many villages are flooded,
and the loss to farmers will be very
! heavy.
4 Conditions in the Tuscarawas valley
are even worse. as the river is larger
/ and the valley wider. From a point
near Uhrichsville. about 100 miles
west of Pittsburgh, to Coshocton, a
/ distance of thirty miles, the valley is
/ one great lake, in some places about
five miles wide. The villages of Port
! Washington, Newcomerstown AND
Isleta are flooded, with some damage

conditions at Coshocton were reported
to be bad, although there is no report

No trains are running out Of Cam

Red Cross Appeals
to Jersey 10 Aid
Flood Sufferers

March 9th. 1918.
1 have been requested by Miss
Boardman, the chairman Of the
National Relief Board Of the
American Red Cross, to issue an
appeal to the people OF New Jer-
sey for funds for the relief of the
sufferers by storm and food and
fire in Ohio, Indiana and vicinity
The President well says in his
proclamation that the extent OF
the disaster assumes the proper
tons of a national calamity. The
dead and the injured number many
thousands and those rendered
homeless number hundreds of
thousands The loss and suffering
are so great as TO worthily claim
the sympathy and help of the
charltably disposed everywhere,
and New Jersey, am sure, will
