JJ500 to Indiana.
The committee determined then that
In view of the absence of advice from
the Governor of either of those two
states, the balance remaining; in hand

City Provides 5O,0OO.
At a meeting of the relief committee
and members of the City Council, who
have been relieved of active participa
tion in the city government. Council
men declared their individual willing
ness to co-operate with the com
mittee in all necessary measures
for the protection and rehabilitation
of the city. It was decided to appro
prlate 450.000 of the relief fund to the
Red Cross to be expended In purchas
ing the bare necessities which will per
mit destitute families to re-establish
homes of a sort until they can improve
their own condition.
A court martial waa organised today
with 40 petty cases on the docket. This
court must try such cases, aa the Mu
nicipal Justice Courts have been super
seded under martial law. Reports that
looters have been shot are untrue, ac
cording to statements by those in au
thority. Guards have fired shots to
frighten suspicious-looking characters,
but never have shot to kill or injure.
Death List Xow .
List of Identified dead reached CO to
day. The first direct news received
here of the situation at Plqua was
brought today by Harry Lewis, who as
representative of the Lima Progress
Association, took a car or supplies into
Piqua. Practically no newspapera have
been received here since Tuesday, and
the people ot Dayton, are growing
enxlous to learn of conditions in other
cities in the flooded districts.
News of the death of J. P. Morgan
today first reached the public through
a bulletin posted by a representative
of the Associated Press. Later the
Dayton News, whose plant was Inun
dated, put a two-page paper on the
streets in which a few details of the
death of the great financier were
printed. Only meager reports of im
portance can be printed.
George F. Burba, secretary to Gov
ernor Cox. to elucidate the causes of
the flood, has prepared a chart today
using the human hand as an illustra
tion. The fingers, pointing north, rep
resent the streams flowing into the
Miami River, which is the wrist in his
illustration. The "wrist" was blocked
by dumpings, narrow bridge abutments
and other impediments, and could not
take care of the influx of .water from
tho tributaries.
EPISCOPAL CHANGE HII
1 5 XEff YORK LEADERS OPPOSE
DROPPIXG OF 'PROTESTAXT.'
Move to Depart From Title Long
Borne Held Inopportune and
Menace to Church Unity.
NEW YORK. March 3L The recent
agitation in the Protestant Episcopal
Church and in its press to eliminate
from its name the word "Protestant,'
or to adopt a new name, has called
forth a letter of protest from 15 promi
nent rectors of New York, which has
been sent to the Right Rev. Daniel S.
Tuttle, of Missouri, presiding bishop of
the church.
One of the new names suggested, to
which objection Is found, is the "Ameri
can Catholic Church." Those who favor
Its adoption propose to submit it for
consideration at the next general con
vention of the church in this city In
October.
The letter was made public in New
Tork today. In part it is as follows:
"We believe the time to be inoppor
tune for change In the name because
the great number opposed to the change
will be sincerely disturbed by such ac
tion; because it seems quite evident
that those who desire a change cannot
agree on a name; and because church
unity, of which we are becoming more
hopeful, cannot be advanced . by a
church which deliberately destroys Its
own peace.
"We do not undertake to discuss
herein the adequacy of our present
name, though we Insist that there is a
vast difference between the question of
the church's wisdom in its original se
lection and the proposal to drop the
name which the church has honorably
borne since our people became a Na
tion." In VVanen KChOnlS tbSTO hSS bean S rtum
