CINCINNATI IN DANGER OF FLOOD Rising Ohio River Forcing Itself Into the Business

City Has Been Drawing On Its Food Reserve for Sufferers and May
 Soon Be in Need; oi Help Itself.

Cincinnati, O., March 2S.-After three to relieve the stricken cities throughout the state the relief com mittees of this city were forced today to give attention to their home town. The waters of the Ohio river crept in to block after block of the lower busi daybreak stage of 63.1 was regis tered The rate of the rise was two inches an hour.
 In many places the water has reached Second street, and a rise of a few more feet will severely cripple the street car system.
 The railroad service is badly crip- pied, only the Louisville and Nash vile, the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific, the Chesapeake and Ohio and the Cincinnati, Lebanon and Northern having egress and ingress and it is believed that if the water reaches the 70-foot stage, which is probable. all except the first and last named roads will be put out of com mission.
 The Cincinnati, Lebanon and North ern road has been utilized exclusiyel. ! for carrying supplies Accordingl. 1 the business men are becoming appre hensive that Cincinnati, which ha been drawing upon. it's reserve sup plies of provisions for the stricken up state cities, may before long nee help itself.
 From above this city on the Ohio comes word that at Portsmouth an Ironton, Ohio the river is nine fee above the danger line, and risin rapidly. Across the river in Newpor and Covington, Ky, a square mile ( residences is partially submerged an former occupants have moved to high CT ground.

25 Dead at Miamisburg.

Middletown, O., March 28.-Miamis- burg, the little town of 5000 popula- tion east of here, which has hereto fore been an unknown quantity in the flood situation, was reached last night and reported that the death list there will not exceed 25. Only one body has been recovered thus far. The property damage will run high. Mi amisburg is still under eight feet of water, but telephone communication was re-established with this city to- night and assurances were given that the situation was not as bad as fear ed.
 The river is receding rapidly and relief work will be begun tomorrow morning, provisions from Dayton and Centreville being on the way to Mi amisburg. In Middletown the situation was somewhat improved, although the search for the dead has not been at- tempted, relief measures coming first
 Estimates from the relief committed place the dead at 50.

Columbus, Ohio, March z8.-Loss Of life from flood waters in Columbus IS tonight not believed to exceed 200 Property damage is estimated in ex- cess of $15O0O,000.
 Order is evolving out of chaos. Missing loved ones are being rapidly accounted for by the hundreds. Am pie shelter and food are being pro- vided for the thousands of homeless citizens.
 Flood waters have mostly drained off the many square miles of devastat- ed districts. Hundreds of brave work CTS are searching for unknown num- bers of lfeless bodies. Others are equally energetic in helping to re- move the debris.
 Steam road service is slowly resum- ing and telegraph and telephone wires are being strung. This is the present situation in the capital city of the Buckeye state. Similar conditions ex- ist in the numerous cities, towns, vil- lages and hamlets situated in central and southern Ohio.
 The known dead in Columbus num- bers 52. At least 50 lifeless bodies 1 have been recovered. The most COIL servative estimate of the loss of life, announced by the city coroner, is 200. ste fnJ1 by survivors. vary from 300 to 1000.
 Any definite tabulation of the dead is impossible within thirty six to for ty-eight hours. z
 Bright spots in the flood situation today were the remarkable instances of heroism displayed by rescuers. A
 welcome relief was the arrival this afternoon in Columbus of the govern ment train from Washington, carrying food and medical supplies, cots, tents
 and blankets and a corps of experi-
 enced rescue workers drafted from
 the army. The train arrived over the
 Pennsylvania railroad. It brought 3OO,-
 900 rations, tents for 10000 people
 800 hospital tents, 400 stoves, 29,0O(
 blankets, $500 cots and 100 ranges. George F. Ummacht, government : civil service clerk of Chicago, connect ed with the United States army quar- : termaster's department there, arrived here today. He has had considerable experience in flood relief work ant will direct the distribution of sup plies.
 Railroad service is being resumed ] on the Pennsylvania, Ohio Central ant
 Hooking Valley lines. The Ohio Ma tional Guard is in control of the relic and rescue work.
 t Undertakers have been pressed int
 service as deputy coroners. Succor t. = the living and christian rites to tn 6 dead is being extended by many forces y The general public has been advise :, that it can best aid in the work of re d construction by keeping out of tn e flooded districts and directing it's en e ergies towards caring for the suffer : CTS.
 y A great demand exists for milk. Tn e local supply has been exhausted. Tn
 flood district directly west of tn

Two. Weeks.Old Child Found in Float
 ing House.

Dayton, O., March 28-Horrors of a flood-refugee center were supplement- ed here today by interest taken in an infant for two days probably the sole occupant of a floating house. The baby, a girl about two weeks old, was found wrapped in blankets and appar- ently little perturbed because of it's perilous situation. She was brought to the National Cash Register Com pany relief headquarters. There was nothing to indicate who its parents might be.
 As flood sufferers, saved from death by boatmen, are beginning to get accustomed to improvised surround ings and recount details of the past few days, tales of heroism and suffer ing are unfolded Telegraph and telephone wires dead because al : power has been shut off, have beer means of saving lives. Many people have caught them from their secont or third-story perches and worked their way to safer places.
 Unconfirmed reports of women try ing this method of escape and drop ping off to their death into the torren of water are told.
 Jno. Meyers, a grocer, saved him self and little son by strapplng th child to his back and swimming safel' to a building that offered refuge. An other man, forced from the secon' story of his home crawled onto tn roof with an umbrella. He sat ther l IA hours with the umbrella protect ing him somewhat from the heaV rain. He was rescued little the wors physically for his experience.

It is believed tonight that within 36 hours scores of bodies will be remov- ed from the drift wood piled against trees lying east of Greenlawn ceme tery, located directly south of the flood district With one roughly built boat, two men have already vis- ited few of these piles and recover ed a number of bodies.
 Within the past few hours, hundreds were rescued who had been maroOned for more than 48 hours The reced- ing waters are just bringing to light the devastating effect of the floods rage. Business structures and resi- dences have been demolished. Others were twisted and torn. Paved streets, sidewalks and curbings have been swept away. Debris has piled many feet high against houses. Federal, state, county and municipal authori- ties are cooperating in the relief of sufferers. The legislature has pro- vided $2,50O appropriation and will probably increase the amount. Rail- roads, public utility corporations, or ganizations without number and sindi- vidual citizens are aiding Governor Cox in furnishing money and SUD- plies.
 To reduce to minimum disorgan- ization of business, Governor Cox has l issued proclamation declaring a ten days holiday for the purpose of ex 1 tending payment on negotiable papers The governor today seized the rail. roads to insure passage of relief trains and to keep sightseers and loot

Big Spring Cattle Trade

If cattle owners on the range can not make good money now, then it is about time to quit the business, is the way T. E.. Pol lock of Flagstaff, Ariz., put it as he discussed the cattle situation. MT. Pollock is president of the Arizona Central Bank, at Flag staff, and also interested in sew eral ranches in the northern part of that state.
 The oldest ranchman never experienced any such a condition as exists now in cattle circles. A short time ago we inserted an ad- vertisement in the Daily Drovers Telegram, offering a string of cattle of various ages for sale. After the first few issues of the paper was out we had to order the ad out, as we received hundreds of letters from all parts of the country making inquiry for the cattle. Long after we had sold out, letters continued to come.
 No ranchman in Arizona, per haps can recall the time when everybody sold out so clean, although we seem to have almost as many cattle as usual. Form erly we would sell off the aged steers three and four years old, and keep the yearlings, but that was not the case this spring. The yearlings went too, in Arizona we have buyers from both sides. Cal itornia buyers now take great many of our cattle, including what we commonly call butcher stock, cows and heifers for killing pur. poses. The freight is lower that way than when they are shipped east to the big packing centers, SC they go that way.
 So far as the calf crop is con cerned, we look for good one this spring. On our ranches we expect to brand about 5000 calves The cows wintered we'll, and tha is good sign, and then the range: are good this spring, which will save the calves"
