OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct. 24—Five
thousand persons are homeless from
floods which swept down on this city
last week. The Canadian river over
flowed its banks and became a raging
torrent miles wide, carrying houses,
barns and stock to the Mississippi.
Following the recession of the flood
waters bands of young men and boys
started looting the abandoned homes.
Mayor Cargill deputized a special po
lice force with orders to kill any per
son found looting homes or stores.
Coffee and bread depots which were
established at the time of the flood,
have been transferred to permanent
quarters and it is believed that the
waters will recede to normal by to
morrow night and cleaning up can be
started. The flooded area of the city
extended over the south half, where
from four to six feet of water cover
ed yards and homes.
Had the big dam on the Canadian,
which supplies drinking water to the
city, broken under the pressure, the
loss of life would have been terrible.
Continued heavy rains was the cause,
the northern, central and western part
of the Slate being inundated and mil
lions of dollars in damages done.
