Undertakers Called GhouIs

The activity of certain local under
takers called forth the wrath of Major
Dupuy, who issued statement in
which he called them "ghouls" for
their feverish activity in seeking out
bodies, and sometimes burying them
without making report to the authori-
ties. He declared they were trying to
work a hold-up game on helpless
friends and relatives oft hose who
have lost their lives.
The majority of the bodies Of food
victims will be found buried under de-
bris, in the Miami canal, under great
piles of wreckage and far down the
Miami river, at Miamisburg, Middle
town and Hamilton, in the opinion of
men who have examined the ground.
Few people were caught in their
homes as most of them had received
sufficient warning to aid them in es-
cape before the flood assumed dan
gerous proportions. Those who were
drowned for the most part were
caught in the streets, either on their
way to their places of business and
employment, or while trying to get to
places of safety when forced to fee
from their homes. Lieutenant Leath-
erman, surgeon of the Third regiment,
o. N. g. who went through the flood
in West Dayton, said that he saw
scores of dead bodies floating down
the Miami river and many people were
avrtfY, ftNo
chance in ten thousand that these
were saved, he said.
The water was icy cold and the cur
rent terrific. In one district it was
stated at the sanitary department
headquarters, dozens of bodies could
be seen under piles of wTeckage, here
a hand and there a foot sticking out
from under the debris. Efforts were
directed for several hours in an at
tempt to get these bodies, but none
had been taken out when night fell.
The work OF extending succor to the
marooned inhabitants of the districts
which are still flooded continues. In
many sections are to be seen rowboats,
skiffs and canoes making their way
with extreme difficulty among the
heaps of wreckage and overturned
houses among tangled meshes OF tele-
graph, telephone and electric wires,
seeking out possible victims. Among
the organizations engaged in rescue
work is the company Of the naval re-
serves from the United States ship Es-
sex at Toledo, under command OF Cap
tain A. F. Nicklett.

Dayton, Ohio.-The work of reha-
bilitating began az the work of rescue
approached it's end. The all-important
weather showed improvement as view
ed by refugees, for it was warmer and
pleasant to frost and water-chilled
bones, but the sanitary experts accept
ed the rise in temperature with mixed
feelings, for the cold had retarded the
decomposition Of animal matter and
refuse.
Secretary Of War Garrison who con-
ferred with various officials and heads
of committees wired President Wilson
that the death list would not reach 200

ton and departed for Cincinnati, after

tomobile. w. 3. Blackwell in charge

famine. 1t is believed there is little
chance that the present supply can be
made to last until the water mains are
In use again. II. n. Grant, mead or the
relief supplies committee issued an ap.
peal to all cities in the country, ask
ing that as much bottled water as pos
sible be shipped to Dayton immediate
ly. II is especially desired that this
water be strictly pure, as it is practic-
ally impossible to boil the water for
drinking purposes.
Medical supplies were reported woe
fully short by Major T. v. Dupuy, who
is in charge of sanitary and medical
work. Drug stocks were largely de-
stroyed and the medical chests of the
militia, as well as supplies sent by
other cities, have in many instances
been delayed by washouts and other
mishaps Of the flood. 2 However, a
trainload of supplies is expected soon
from Washington.
