SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE ENQUIRER. Louisville, February 13 Tobacco manufacturers and dairymen among other Louisville realare, dents, having their post-flood worries. Thirty thousand hogsheads of tobacco, valued at approximately 500,000, were damaged or partly damaged by floodwaters, it was estimated today. Although not representing such a huge amount of money, more than 800,000 milk bottles were reported missing by dairymen. The largest part of the damaged tobacco will be recovered, but, coming after three short crops and a high market, any loss is serious.

The tobacco is from several crops. Part of it was bought last season at an average of 40 cents a Tobacco in all hogsheads touched by water must be hung and dried. For the ten days there have been processions of thousands of trucks carying, hogsheads out of Louisville Lexington, Paris, and other cities where there are large warehouses or drying machines. Approximately A fourth of all tobacco stored in Louisville must be treated in this way, it was estimated. Not more than a tenth of the damaged tobacco will be a total loss, one tobacco executive estimated, but much of it will have to be graded down.

Leavell, Director of Health, issued 8 plea today for citizens to turn in all bottles. It is estimated $50,000 worth of bottles and crates are missing.

Many of the bottles were lost in the flood, but the majority disappeared through emergency distribution of milk to fl residents.

YESTERDAY'S HEADLINER Mme. Louisa Tetrazzini New York, February 13-(AP) It was more than 30 years ago that a woman's voice began writing headlines. The years have pedaled their inevitable pianissimo. A new generation hitches its wagon to new stars. But the headlines that Louisa Tetrazzini wrote with her voice continue fresh in the memory of those who heard her, of those who still say she was incomparable.

Mme. Tetrazzini has turned 60 now. Tonight finds her living quietly at her villa near Rome, Italy. Her career, of blazing brilliance and color, wag not so long as some. The late Schumann-Heink, for instance, carried on into her seventies.

The Italian songbird was the "big money" coloratura of her day. The headlines screamed that she had been offered $3,000 for a performance to sing for Hammerstein in his memorable competition with New York's Metropolitan. A radio comic gets that much, and more, for a few minutes before a microphone. But in 1908 it was sensational remuneration. Tetrazzini gave them their money's werth.

Her voice, as opera and concert goers knew it, was soprano, but at first it was contralto. As a child 12 she knew entire roles of Italian opera, and as she grew older upper range improved so that her fame finally was established in coloratura roles. Tetrazzini was offered a Covington Doctor Charged With Criminal Contempt Criminal contempt was charged against Dr. Edward J. Nestley, Covington physician, when he appeared in Kenton Circuit Court, Covington, yesterday to answer an allegation of contempt of court, filed against him Wednesday after he had struck Orie S.

Ware, former Congressman and Commonwealth Attorney, in the courtroom of Judge Johnst Northeutt. The criminal contempt charge was placed against the physician on motion of Ulie J. Howard, Commonwealth Attorney. It will be set for hearing when the motion docket is called in court tomorrow. An early hearing will be sought by Howard and 1 Judge Northeutt.

This will be conducted before a jury. "I believe it is my duty to do everything possible to protect lawyers, litigants, and witnesses from common and brutal assaults," Howard said when requesting that action for criminal contempt be taken against Dr. Nestley. "The punishment that the court might impose on a contempt of court charge (30 hours and a fine of $30) is not enough for the crime that has been committed." The hearing on the contempt of court charge, set for yesterday morning, was continued at the request of James R. McGarry, who has replaced Bert J.

King as attorney for Dr. Nestley. King is expected to be a witness at the hearing. The contempt charge resulted from an attack upon Ware by Dr. Nestley while Ware, who represents King, then attorney for the physiNestley in a' divorce action, cian, and Dr.

Nestley were in Judge Northeutt's courtroom awaiting the calling the divorce case. It was said that Dr. Nestley approached Ware, and was talking to King, tapped him upon the shoulder, causing to turn around, then struck several times. Dr. him Nestley explained that he believed Ware was about to strike him.
