This alarming message was ro'civol hero this afternoon by Governor Cox from Georgo Burba, the governor's privato secretary, who wired from Springfield. 'Tho rivor at Dayton," tho message added, "is four miles wide. I cannot got anywhero near tho city. It is aw ful. Tho water is up to tho second story of tho Phillips house." Bnrba is making every effort to reach Dayton. The Horror Grows, Columbus, Ohio, March 20. The first refugees from Dayton arrived at Phonoon this afternoon, according to a message rocoived this afternoon by the Columbus offico of tho United Press from Mrs. Bona Eakin, a telegraph op- orator at Phonoon. Tho refugees told Mrs. Enkin that 500 persons were be lieved to bo dead on the north side of the river alono. Tho water, they said, was falling slowly. Forty boats are patrolling Dayton and St. Elizabeth's hospitals, and sev eral other buildings are undermined. Troy, Ohio, Mrs. Eakin wired, is un der water, and many fatalities are re ported thoro. Many of the residents, sho said, aro starving. Portions of Puiqua also are under water, and a scarcity of food is add ing to the horror. Zanesville In Danger. Columbus, Ohio, March 20. At 2 o'clock this afternoon Governor Cox was notified that Zanesville, Ohio, is in danger of immediato destruction. Tho situation, tho message said, could not be worse. Frantic appeals for aid were included in the telegram. , Dayton Lost to World. Dayton, Ohio, March 26. Dayton is a lost city today. Only one telephone is workin gout of here, and that is to Lebanon. The city government is completely imprisoned by tho water. Nothing has been heard from it since the flood de scended. It came so quickly that no one was prepared. Tho only organized relief work is that being conducted by the National Cash Register Company, whoso plant lies just outside the flood and fire zone. Tho plant has been convortod into a rescuo mission and hospital, and thousands, including rich and poor, slept on straw-covered floors. The company bought up nearly all of the avnilablo food supply in Dnyton for the stricken residents. Bnrefootcd, John Patterson, presi dent of tho National Cash Register Company, tho man who put Dayton on tho map, wadod through tho flood, sav ing many families. Ho rowed a boat himself, although he is nenrly 70 years old. Ho has a stin, Frederick Patter son, and a daughter, Miss Dorothy. Tho son led in the rescue work, nnd the daughter stood in tho rain for hours, assisting tho refugees, The company's 31. automobiles wero prossed into ser vice There wero not enough skiffs in tho city, and Patterson ordered his carpenters to build 100 more. Reports of deaths in the flood are henrd everywhere. Most of tho. fatal ities wero due to tho inability of the refugees to fight tho waters on im provised rafts. Others wero over whelmed before they had a chance to escape. Georgo Dayton, a rescuerer, found a woman and baby nnd took them into his skiff. Suddenly tho woman rose nnd plunged into tho flood with her baby. Both were drowned. One num stepped nut of a skiff to enter a houso. Ho had hardly closed the door before it was engulfed. ' John Scott, formerly of Butte, Mon tnnt, nn employe of the Cash Register Company, ascended a polo and guided a scoro to safety across a cable, lie fell off tho pole, and it is believed he perished. Miss Norma Thuma, clnd in boy's clothing, appeared at a relief station. Sho said she had donned male garb so she could cross the perilous wire un hampered. Sho told how Ralph Mey ers, carrying an infant In a meal sack, with his wife behind him, walked a block across a high cnble. Their only support, sho said, wns a thin wire alongside tho cnble. Ono woman, maddened by tho horrors of the day, fought Hill Riley and Charles Wagoner when they atetmpted to put, her in n bont. She bit and choked tho men, until sho wns over come. A heart-rending feature of the terror wns the women ami children who sobbed nil night long, Numerous fires havo resulted from gin explo sions, Tho search for tho dead will not start until nil the living have been res cued.
