People Marooned in Flooded District
Living and Safe
The Worst Condktions ,Discoyered by
Were of Go Inmates of the
WOrkhouse
A despatch from Dayton, .Ohio
ays All persons but a few of
those hundreds,of persons who have
been marooned in the downtown
section of flooded Dayton are safe.
This was the news brought out on
Thursday by an Associated Press
staff map, the first to succeed in the
perilous tas.,k of penetrating bar
north as the Big Miami Bayer,
which runs through the oemtre of
the town.
Chief of Police J. N. Allabaok,
himself marooned, who has been
directing the rescuework, gave the
first information. as to the situation
in what hos heretofore been the
waterbound district.
Except for possible loss of life on
',of& north side of the river, there
will not be rnore than 200 dead in
Dayton, according to Allaback's
;estiznate after he had been given in-
formation as; to the situation on the
south side.
The we condition- found near
the centre of the flood was in the
-workhouse, where 60 prisoners have
tiot had a, drop of water nor a bite
,of food for two days. The men re-
Nolted and demanded their liberty
and a chance to fight &lir their lives.
'Since then the workhouse has been
a mu
ad -hose, acoording to. Super-
intendent Johnson. The prisoners
repeatedly fought with Johnson and
threatened to kill both him and his
May Have to Shoot.
Johnson asked that a detaehnient
.of the National Guard be assigned
to help handle the men. He de-
mlared that the men. would have to
be shot if they escaped from their
North of Buins Avenue as far as
Fourth Street the vvater Wits found
to be fronithree to six feet deep.
Beyond Fourth Street the, water
las receded to make it possible in
many places to proceed on foot.
From Fourth Street to the Big Ma
.ami River relief work was taken up
:by a committee headed by Chief
Allabatk. All grocery :stores were
•commancleored, and although in
;most cases the goods were covered
-with water, yet sufficient supplies
were found to prevent great But -
'forint; among those in the interior
-try strip. -
No Cases of Starvation.
While there may be many deaths
in individual homes, which have
been without food or drink, there
was no place but the workhouse
where any considerable number of
people were held without food.
.None had had enough, but no case
•.approaching actual starvation NILS
'found. , ,
ICnowledge that the death list is
likely to prove so low, in the down-
town section gave rise to a hope
that even in North Dayton, about
which nearly all hope bad been
.abandoned, there might be compar-
atively few deaths.
The progress of the first 0.9.11.0(3
into the waterbound distriot was
.greeted with appeals for bread and
water, In nearly every house left
:standing people were asked whether
there had been any deaths, and
with only a few exceptions all re-
plied that there had not. '
Beeltel Hotel Net Burned.
It was impossible to approaoh
within several blocks of the fire
sone in the cano, but tifere appear -
ad every indication that the Beckel
House had not been burned, and
that the fire had been oonfined to
the blocks, beyond Jefferson and
'Third Streets. .
The 300 guests of the Algonquin
Hotel have been ket comfortable
.cxcept for the continuous dread of
fire. The wa,ter reached to the se-
cond floor, but all supplies had
been moved to places of safety, and
those in the hotel experienced little
discomfort.
Two hundred women and babiee
found refuge in a paint factory in
North Dayton, where they found
sufficient food to keep them from
.acate suffering. An effort is to be
made at once to rosette them.
Victim's .Cheerful Spirits;

• wale' the cheerful spirit with which
aced victims viewed their plight,
This was'Dayton's first big flood in
many years. Mitch' of the sub-

• triaiority of residents of these See0-
tione kokod out on all sides upon a
grene, sweep of muddy, swiftly -mov-
ing water they seemed undisturbed
in some of the poorer sections the
attitude of the marooned "Was not so
,theerful. As a motor -boat passed
beneath the second floor of, one
partly submerged house a man
leaned out and threatened lo shoot
unless they took off his wife and
•baby that had just been born. • The
woman, almost dying, was let down
- from the window by a rope and
•• taken lo a place of refuge.
Further on members of is motpr.
'boat party wore startled by shots
•in the second floor of a house about
vvhich five feet of water swirled.
The boat was stopped, and a man
from the window,
"Why are you ;shooting?" he was
,asked. "Oh, just amusing myself

when are you going to take me out

constructed a bridge over alleys
and the tops of adjoining buildings
to a point of safety.
The water receded rapidly. An
occasional snow flurry and biting
gusts of wind added te the discom-
fort of the rescue crews, but they
remained steadily at work.

mate of conditions:

would apply to stocke Of stores.
Figures available at manufacturing
plants placeddamage under this
head at $1,000,000. Th.o loss on
automobiles was set at $500,000.
It wan' believed the damage to

Winston Churchill Proposes a Holiday In European
• Battleship Construction -
•
A despatch from London says :
Announcements of policy of the
highest importance were made in
the House of Commons on Wednes-
day by Winston Spencer Chiirchill,
First Lord of the A.dmiralty, in in-
troducing the Imperial naval esti-
mates for the year. Following are
some of his most striking state-
ments : Britain, in her capacity as
the strongest tuition in the world,
and that best able to bear the strain
of continued increase in the build-
ing of armament, proposes a "naval
holiday" for a year, so far as con-
cerns the construction of new capi-
tal ships, and suggests that Ger-
many co-operate in effecting the
ides, among the Governments of
Europe. The five Dreadnoughts
shortly to be added to the imperial
navy by Canada (three). New Zea-
land (one) and theTederated Malay
States (one), are to comprise a new
squadron of five similar ships, to
be calIed the Imperial Squadron.
The three battleships to be laid
down this year by the Home Gov-
ernment will be identical with those
given by the dominions, thus eom-
pleting a fleet of eight ships without
equal in the world. It is proposed
to have long-range airships of the
rigid type constructed in the im-
mediate future. The Admiralty has
arranged to lend guns, ammunition
and gunners to first-class British
liners for purposes of commerce
protection in tune of war.

present tiine. • It withstood the flood, and is now caring for
