EYEWITNESS TELLS
STORY OF DISASTER
Scenes of Horror in Dayton Painted
by Rescuer-Estimates at Least
$500 Dead

Dayton, Ohio, March 2S.--Charles

gone farther north In the Dayton
flood than any other man has dared.
returned from his perilous journey
unnerved by what he saw and heard.
His was the first story to disclose
the awful mysteries lying behiad the
water that cut off most of Dayton
from the rest of the world. No man
has so far dared to venture this far
because Of the swirling current which
has made rescue work extremely
hazardous.
Here is Van Horns story as ne die
tated it.:
hope my eyes are never to be
punished again with such sights as
were inflicted upon them WeGnes-
day night and during the early morn
ing hours.
This awful happening cannot be
500 are deai. l should say at least
$500 are dead. We went to Third
and st. Clair streets which is farther
than anybody had gone before.
Twice the boat was struck by whirl-
ing human bodies. They turned in
the whirlpool like spools on a ma
chine. We reached out and touched d
the head of woman once and the
second time we touched the bearded
face of man.
We went as near to the fire as we
possibly could go. Some of those
seen us, because we heard their cries
for help. We looked np and saw
somd people standing at windows and
then saw them fall back into the
flames.
We couldn't do thing for them.
When we finally had to leave the
scene of the fire two blocks were
ablaze, Third and Fourth streets be-
tween st. Clair and Jefferson.
We heard the cries of people who
must have been a square away and
some of these cries came from the
direction of the Backel house. The
whole of Dayton is likely to burn

to the Adams wholesale house, far
ther up the street, and there were
able to rescue five women who were
prisoners. This building was at that
time threatened by the fire.
The women were in second story
window. but was unable to get
close to the window, because of the
current. Screaming to MS to save
them, they jumped into the water.
They were pulled out and saved. We
then rowed down to Clinton street
and there got two girls out of resi-
dence. They had been standing for
eight hours up to their waists in wa

Situation Grows More Appalling.

Chicago, March 2S.-The appall-
ing situation in Ohio grew worse to-
day. Two thousand, 1000 or per-
ion persons are homeless, half frozen
and without proper food.
Everywhere the rivers continued
to rise. To death of thousands by
flood was added death by starvation
and exposure and In at least two
cities cremation.
The terrible situation extended
with only few cases of warmth and
cooked meals and dry ground from
Lake Erie to the Kentucky and from
Pennsylvania to Indiana. No suffer-
ing like this affecting an entire
state had ever been recorded in
America before.
Relief Trains Cut OF.
While Chicago and other cities
were giving hundreds OF thousands
of dollars to relieve and while the
United States government was rem
dering rations for 1000, 900 men, the
rising floods cut off the relief trains.
The food and holocaust at Day.
ton, Pura, Miamsbury and other cit
les In the Miami River valley has
tended to make outsiders forget the
death and suffering in other sections
of the state.
SO appalling and seemingly exag-
gerated were many of the reports
from flooded cities and towns that
they were disbelieved and in many in
stances awholly dieregarded. Later
reports from these same sections,
however, often confirmed what seem
ed to be wild rumors. In other
cases reports prove not to be correct
Many Cities Count.
Efforts early today failed to clari-
fy the puzzling situation regarding
loss of life in Columbus. How many
were dead there was not known.
Many who were considered conserva-
tive place the loss at from 100 to $50.
At Delaware, twenty-five miles north
of Columbus, details were unavail-
able. Tho known dead number
thirty-three.
From Sidney comes the report that
from 100 to $50 have been drowned.
Tiffn reported at least fifty lives
lost.

Indianapolis, March 2S.--Flood
conditions in Indianapolis and Indi-

train reached Peru and sixty boats
are carrying the supplies over the iu-
tervening water to the 5000 refu-
gees in the courthouse
Kokomo, Wabash, Logansport and
La Fayette are in terrible plight,
without relief Of any kind in sight.
People are going insane with thirst,

200 to 1000 Dead.
Conflicting reports place the num-
ber of dead between 200 and 1000,
the homeless and those needing hos
ions of dollars Of damage to prop
pital attention at $4,000, and mill
erty. The entire railroad and trac-
tion interests have suffered.
A report from Marion, Ind, says
that Superintendent ]. ]. Kroan,
Trainmaster s. +. Johnston and
Train Dispatcher Samuel Anderson,
Pennsylvania line, had perished in
the flood In the vicinity of Logans-
port. They were trying to escape to
the Pennsylvania railway station on
a raft and have not been heard of.
Bodies Float in Peru Streets.
At Peru. more bodies are hourly
reported floating down the streets
Twelve bodies were found in one
house. One report stated that twen.
ty bodies had ipated as far as Lo.

DAYTON SUFFERS HEAVIEST LOSS

Dayton, Ohio, Mach 2S.--Rescu-
ers have begun removing bodies from
the river at Riverdale and are piling
them three deep along the river
bank. The estimate that 5000 are
dead is now believed to be as near
correct as possible.
Further damage from food is. pass
ing, but the apprehension of famine.
exposure and sickness grows. There
is not a full days food supply In the
city and 1t Is likely that when per-
sons who have been held down town
without food or water are released
there will be no provisions or place
for them.
''If the death list is only 1000 I
will consider 1t marvellous dispensa-
tion." telegraphed Gov. Cox's secre-
tary. "If it is 10000 i! will not be
surprised"
Alleys Filled with Bodies.
According to the story OF one
boats crew. there are 400 dead in
one alley between Main and Jeffer-
son streets. These, the searchers de-
clared, had been drowned and swept
into the alley by eddies that form
where the tall blocks stand. The
work of relief was taken up as early
as possible in the day. Survivors in
the outskirts were given food, but
those marooned in the business dis
trict could receive no response to
their cry: Food! Food" Thousands
are thirsty and starving. There is
no food in the buildings where the
survivors took refuge, and the water
supply has been cut of for twenty
four hours. Women, children and
men are suffering alike.
Forty Dead in One Building.
There are over 400 refugees in the
new Y. NJ G. A. Building at the COR
cording to late reports, there are
forty dead in the basement and lower
story, and efforts are being made to
dislodge them so that they may be
carried away by the flood, and thus
diminish the chance of pestilence.
There are four hundred men,
women and children in the upper sto-
ries of the Reibold building on Main
street between Fourth IND Fifth.
There Is absolutely nothing TO eat in
the place and efforts to distribute
food have been nearly futile because
there is so little food that can be
reached. The lower floors of the
buildings containing provisions are
flooded from ten to eighteen feet
deep and hundreds of thousands of
dollars worth Of provisions have
been ruined within block of the
Reibold structure, where the people
are crying for food.
