Florence, August 4-Special: The
largest meeting of representatives Of
tobacco interests in a long while was
held tonight to discuss the situation
brought about by the war in Europe.
Bankers of the Pee-pee section held
a meeting to devise plans and will
probably send a committee to Wash.
iDgton to seek aid for the tobacco
growers.
A resolution was passed by the To-
bacco Warehouse Association as fol-
lows:
"That it is decided to keep open the
warehouses for the sale of tobacco.
That owing to the war clouds hanging
over Europe and several countries be-
ing already involved in war several OF
which countries are large users OF
South Carolina tobacco it has iD
measure affected prices aud some Of the
large firms have Withdrawn from the
markets. vet several large concerns are
still buying tobacco and we hope that
the worst may be over in a short time
thought it is impossible to forecast the
future. II is not advisable for this
committee to make any further sugges-
tions except that it is the best not to
rush the tobacco on the market"

MEXICO'S ROYAL GHOST.
Legend Of the Rambling Cave of Las
Siervas hot Springs.

The hot springs of Las Siervas, near
Vale de CaniZos, in remote part of
the state of Guerrero. Mexico. have
been visited by few people from the
outside world, but they are famous in
the legends and history Of the Indian
tribes of that part of the republic.
According to the natives, the waters
Of the springs possess great medicinal
properties. In ancient times the
springs were the favorite bathing re-
sort of the noble families of the Tepa-
neca, Alcolhua and other tribes that
lived in that region.
On both sides of the chief spring
there are huge rocks with hieroglyph-
les and the figures Of women beauti-
fully carved. Judging from the robes
worn by the women, their stately APP
pearance and the jewels around their
necks, the figures must represent prin-
cesses or ladies Of very high rank.
The spring is at the entrance to a
grotto that has never been explored.
From the grotto a rumbling sound re-
sembling distant thunder Is to be heard
| all the time. According to natives, the
rumble Is caused by the ghost Of King
Excamina, who ruled over that part of
the country three or four centuries be-
fore the Spaniards discovered America.
| King Excamina, the tradition says,
was as bad as man could be. He muir
/ dered people merely for the pleasure OF
seeing them die and committed every
crime. He had his palace constructed
I'm another cave. which communicated
with that of the spring by tunnel.
There Excamina. in company with
some of his favorites, had orgies that
LASTED weeks and months.
When he died an earthquake destroy
ed his palace. Since that day his ghost
has been haunting the cave near the
spring, and none of the natives has
ever dared go into the cave.-New 1orR

the partners tod him of their find and
asked him to put in capital to develop
it, Offering him an eighth interest.
Barker learned all he wished from
them about their mine then said that
mining was too risky business for
him; he wouldn't invest In talking
matters over Treat let Barker into Il

had become indebted in the east and

leave and gone to California to make
fresh start If h s mine panned out
well he would pay his debts
One day Treat went to Bankers
store for some provisions and on the
way back to his mine was kidnapped,
taken to San Francisco and thence to
Philadelphia. There his creditors,
who had captured him, kept him in
Jail on various charges, because 1t had
been reported to them that he had
made money which he was concealing
But Treat finally convinced them that
all he had in the world was an unde-
velOped mine in California. If they
would give him chance to develop
1t they would get their money. They
freed him, and he succeeded in get
ting some capital from rela tive.
Then he returned to California after
an absence of five months.
There he found his partner in Jail
