XENIA, O., March 26.-Refugecs arriving here this morning report tho number of lives lost at Dayton to be between five hundred and d thousa nd. A new horror has now been added to the catastrophe by fires which have broken out all over the city Even yet the stories seem to be alto gether incomplete and it is likely that several days must elapse before the loss can be estimated with any certainty. According to the words of the refugees the floods came with such awful suddenness that very little chance was given to the survivors to
 Almost everyone was compelled to seek safety for himself and for the members of his family and as each block was completely isolated from the remainder it was impossible to learn what the results of the flood were in other parts of the city.
 The town of Miamisburg has been completely washed away. It was a fine town of about 4.o00 inhabitants but it may now be regarded as thing of the past. There is no way of learning how many fatalities occur red in Miamisburg but it is hoped that the people were able to reach safety before the floods swooped down.
 A pail has settled all over this state and the neighboring states. Nothing but tales of doom and disaster are heard from every hand. The catas- trophe fs simply appalling.

 CHICAGO. March 25.-In overrul- ing a motion to take the Frost case from the jury Judge Landis declared today that the precedent would be a had one as Western courts as a. rule are lax In the work of enforcing the land laws. This statement is certain to create much criticism particularly now since the movement has been started to put the Alaska claims un- der the jurisdiction of the courts and take them from the interior depart ment.
 Indeed the statement is regarded as almost fatal blow to the idea of giving the courts the power to decide on such matters.

SEATTLE. March 25.--As countless adviccs are coming from various places as to the extent of the floods and storms some discrepancies are certain to creep in but there can be wrought.
 It is now evident that the damage many millions. The number of lives lost is still indeterminablc but the early accounts that 1,5OO lives were lost at Dayton is now doubted al- though the number of people who pcrished is very great.
 The floods are far greater now than ey-wefe-reportec- -to-bc- yesterday. Fifteen feet of water covers Dayton's streets. Columbus, Akron, Lima, Mid deton and Springfield are also under water and never has q catastrophe been so widespread. The flooding of the numerous cities is due to the breaking over their banks and levees of the Ohio river and smaller ones.
 The saddest story of all is reported from Dayton this evening and that is that looters arc shooting people onu committing wholesale robbery. There is general hope that the facts in this respect are exaggerated but that there Is some grounds for the reports can hardly be doubted. Tho result of such actions Is too awful to be con. templated. It will certainly mean not only murder but frightful vengeance afterwards.
 Two hundred houses are complete ly under water in Middleton. Twen-

 The governor today called out the entire national guard of the state of Ohio to aid in bringing succor to the hundreds of thousands who are now in a pitiable plight. In the proclama- tion calling out the guard he said:
 This is the worst calamity that has ever befallen the country and we will call on the whole world to rush tents and supplies at once.
