SITUATION AT DAYTON

President Wilson's Message
of Thanks and Approval
to Secretary Garrison.

CINCINNATI. Ohio, March 29.-Satis-
fed that the flood situation at Dayton
is well in hand, Secretary Garrison and
Maj. Gen. Wood, after a conference to-
night following their return from an
automobile trip to Dayton, decided to
motor tomorrow to Hamilton. If pres
ent plans are carried out the Secretary
and his army chief will Monday pro-

the overlooked Ohio. Rowboats are ply

station.
Message From the President.
Upon his return from Dayton, Secretary
Garrison found awaiting the following
message from President Wilson:
II thank you for your reports and
heartily approve of what you are doing"
This was in response to a long re-
port telegraphed to the President from
Dayton.
Secretary Garrison was encouraged
tonight when Maj W. D. Conner of the
Hamilton, returned to inform him that
at present everything is FAR more
satisfactory than was expected.
''If fire does not break out IN Hamli-
ton, said NAL. COnnOr, before the WdlSi
mains can be repaired. and If after that
disease can be controlled, the results of
the flood will be mainly in great property
loss, and in far less number or deaths
than was originally reported"
Maj. Connor's report to Secretary Car
rison was as follows:
THE Miami river is back in its bed.
Conditions are rapidly improving.
Martial law was proclalped mere
this morning the Governor of Ohio.
Col Zimmerman, in charge, is work

GOOD and other supplies and shelter
are in abundance. They require moth
ing more at present. Entire city was
covered by food. Many points not Gov
cred by highest previous flood were ten
feet under water.
Actual deaths are unknown Twenty
eight bodies recovered yesterday and
today. Every precaution is being taken
to prevent disease. No vandalism or
la wlessness has been reported"
In later report to Secretary Garrl-
son, Maj. Conner said that the city had
fund of $4,000 available for relief
measures, and that it was being expend-
ed wisely and adequately.

WEEKS RESULT IN OHIO
IS CAST BY GOV. cox
Says Property Loss Will Reach
Three Hundred Million
Dollars.

COLUMBUS, Ohio. March 23.-Gov.
Cox tonight issued the following state
ment in regard to the flood situation
and relief prospects and accomplishments
in Ohio.
THE end of the week finds the state
dazed and numbed in contemplation OF
the tremendous and widespread destruc-
ton in almost every section The situa-
ton today assumed a few novel angles
1t is becoming now a problem of getting
food within our borders, condition
which demonstrates how impotent even
great state is when communication is
severed with the outside world.
Cincinnati, in the fullness OF her
bounty, shipped train loads of supplies
into the lower Miami valley and the
southeastern parts of Indiana as we'll.
Philanthropy displaced prudence, and to-
night the Queen city of the west appeals
to the state for assistance.
Dayton and GAINESVILLE, the two troub-
lesOme points so far as extension OF re-
lief was concerned. are in pretty fair
shape. The western food supply was
tapped by way of indianapolis.
The Chicago Association Of Commerce.
at our request, established a base at
diana capital. Ten carloads of lime, five
was resumed between Dayton and the In
diana capital Ten car loads of lime. five
car tanks of gasoline and a trainload
consisting of bread, vegetables and cloth
from that point. Lime IS as needful now
as food for the purpose of disinfectiOn.
All Had Hunger Appeased.
1.-The military organization has been a
great service and the week closes to-
night with some measure of consolation
in no section
has appealed to us has had it's hunger ap-
peased. Col. Zimmerman of the 9Th Reg1-
ment was sent at daylight from Dayton
to Hamilton, and this afternoon he sends
his official report, which is indeed a
gruesome tale.
"Ninety-one bodies will be inferred to-
morrow. Two hundred horses which
drowned in the streets of two or three
of the principal thoroughfares have been
washed into bitches twenty feet deep.
Hamilton will be real problem because
we have reached it until now through
Cincinnati. 1t has been impossible to get
there from the north. With the Cincin-
natl supply diminishing down to the point
of need, and the Ohio flood situation cut
ting off communication from both the
east and south, we doubtless face q cri-
sis in dealing with the situation at Gin
cinnati and Hamilton.
River Towns Wrapped in Water.
Many Ohio river towns are wrapped in
water tonight. Ripley. Pomeroy, Middle
port and Gallipolis are heavy sufferers.
New Richmond, Higginsport and seven
little towns in Clermont county are in
trouble.
It is said there is not bridge stand
ing over the Muskingum or Miami
rivers.
1.-The loss at Columbus will be about
100 lives The maximum at Dayton, as
it appears now, will be 200. Hamilton
will run about $50.
Estimates have been made this after
noon with considerable care and it is
the belief that property loss in the state
will aggregate $500, 1905, 0CO.''
