A GREAT FALLING OFF
IN OUR PHOSPHATE INDUSTRY IN
HELASTFEW YEARS.

|
Put on the Market at Price that Leaves
avery Narrow Margin Of Profit for South
Carolina Miners, s.
AUGUSTA, April 2.-There are few
people who fully appreciate the great
falling off there has been in the reve-
nue. to the State from the phosphate
/ royalty. From an annual income of
nearly $250,000 the royalties have
dwindled and dwindled until the pre-.
sent year will hardly show an income
of one.ifth of that amount. What
has been the cause of the great loss Of
revenue from phosphate royaltya
There has been no one main cause.
There have been a combination of cir.
cumstances, chief among which was
the discovery of phosphate rock in
Florida, Tennessee and Algiers. Boom
Carolina rock as much as possible, and
make it necessary to the trade, the
fact cannot be disguised that the AL
gerian and Florida rock have entered
the foreign markets, and have forced
the market price down to such q point
that the price has been barely SELF.
supporting to the industry, If that
much can be said. Cartain it is rock
is not bringing six, Gig ht and nine dol
lars, as it once did, but Algiers has
furnished a rock that forces that OF
South Carolina down to about 1915
net per ton, out of which the royalty
is to be paid, and that ia the situation
in nutshell. If South Carolina wants
to remain ins the European markets
she must meet competition, and that
was the chief reason that induced the
board Of phosphate commissioners to
make the reduction in the royalty 70
25 cents per ton on all shipments after
today. 10y
It will be an exceedingly interesting
study to note the ups and downs of the
phosphate industry as indicated in the
statement of royalties received by the
State, as shown in the reports Of tho
phosphate inspectors. The figures are
as follows:

Daylight brought hundreds of peo.
pie from surrounding towns and men,
women and children assisted in caring
for the injured. Little progress was
made, however, and it was not until
noon that an organized effort for allie.
WAITING the sufferings of the injured
was begun. The four remaining build
ings are turned into hospitals and di.
rected by Major Kinney, the work
proceeded as swiftly as possible.
Queer sights greeted the eye on all
sides. Ten trees have house hang
ing on each; clothing and household
goods are scattered in the streets.
Horses, COWS and other animals are TO
be seen everywhere while pile of
ruins has fine piano perched on top
| of it. Many of the citizens wander
about the streets, dazed at the calami'
ty, and almost on the verge of insan'
ity at the loss of family and homes.
Two Or three have gone mad.
Ten thousand people are in the city
tonight. Many of them came to rem.
der aid but the majority are there as
sight-sesrs. A great quantity OF
clothing, bedding and provisions has
been sent in and the Guthrie Club has
raised 81, 500 in cash to send to-mor.
row. The city has put to use all its
cash, about $500, for n1mediate aid.
Hundreds of tents have been seGt from
Fort Reno and Guthrie and will pro
vide temporary shelter for the unfor
tunates. All are homeless, however,
and more su bstantial aid must quickly
follow. Food is also scarce and prac
tically all the towns supply of medi
cine has been destroyed.
