On Rudge spline drive hubs, there is usually a small hole in the side, sometimes covered with a small screw.

The Buffalo hubs have the same condition...

Re: Dayton wire wheel info
Add a 1/4" diameter thru hole in the hub that lines up with the keyway and the cotter pin hole in the axle. The added hole won't weaken the hub. Or do as Kevin suggested and just live with it. Needle nose pliers are your friend.
