APPALLING DISASTER

was more than ten million dollars
and the loss of lite more than
2,2O0. y conservative estimate
of the damage done at Clifton
Glendale and Pacolet is fully $3.-
100000. From the information
that could be obtained the loss of
life will be in the neighborhood
of fifty five At Clifton alone
forty-fve people were swept away
by the water before they had
time TO get out of their beds.
Fully 1900 operatives will be
left without employment, bu:
most of these unfortunate people
will be locked after by the mill
authorities for the present. In
deed, at Clifton Mills arrange
ments have alteady been made for
furnishing houses and food for
the sufferers.
The amount of damage done to
railroad, telephone and telegraph
companies is enormous. All along
the railroads bridges, trestles and
tracks have been swept away by
the fury of the ")ods. Spartan
burg is entirely shut off from the
outside world. No trains have
left or arrived here to day. The
bridge just out side of Spartan
burg, on the Charlotte division Of
the Southern, has been DESTROY

of the iron and brick structure

1t is too late now to undo the
mischief that was done by the
food in Pacolet river last Satur-
day, but it seems, as we learn
from The States correspondent
there, that some of the old mill
operatives many years ago pro-
tested against the building of
the mill villages along the river
bank and often the houses have
been flooded on the lower floors
at the Clifton mills. This has
caused no little dissatisfaction
among the workmen and their
families for years. Now they
hold the mill owners directly
responsible for the loss Of life,
and the fact that the inhabi-
tants of Santuc were not warned
by the mill watchmen of their
danger has aggravated the stu
alton not little.

this county means at least two
millions to the railroad company.
Traffic has been blocked in every
direction, and the railroads are
doing all that it is possible to put
their lines in running order.
Early yesterday morning wreck
ing trains were sent out from
Charlotte and Columbia. Hun
dreds of men have been rushed
TO the scenes of the wrecks and
have been working hard on
these lines. From Clinton to
Pacolet, along Lawson Fork and
Pacolet River, the effects of the
flood can be seen on every side
Roads are covered with water,
trees, telegraph poles and the
wreckage of railroad tracks, etc.
The wreck at Clifton Mills is
the most disastrous in the course
of the flood. The handsome new
mill, erected by Capt. d. <. Con
verse in 1896 and completed in
1899 by President A. II. witch
ell, is complete wreck, washed
away. This cotton mill was the
largest in Spartanburg county,
having capital stock of $1,OOO,-
600. This mill was the first one
on Pacolet river, and the site is
lower than the surrounding coun-
try. On each side are high
cliffs, and the water rose to the
amazing height of sixty feet. The
mill stood about two hundred
yards above the iron trestle of
the Southern Railway, now it is
q mangled mass OF distorted
brick, iron ard timbers. For
hours the mill withstood the on.
slaught of the waters, but gradu.
ally gave way, piece by piece,
large pieces of timber being
thrown up into the air, for some
time threatening the destruction
of the trestle at Converse station.
A Above the mill site is the rem
nant of the dam, which furnished
power for ali three Of the Clifton
mills. On one side of the dam
there is piled up in a confused
mass the remains Of the power
house, huge turbine wheels,
water pits and masses of iron.
Below this are the remains of
Mill No. 3. All that can be
seen here is a part of the first
floor, the other four stories hav
ing been completely washed
away.
The almost incredible wiping
away of these magnificent mills,
five in number, all in an instant,
almost hard as it is TO realize
elsewhere, is harder still to real
ize right here at the very sight of
the horror. But the people here
have not taken long to recover
from the stunning effect of the
blow. The mills will be rebuilt
and that readily, so state the
president and the directors.
This afternoon a meeting was
held at which there was sucn q
