HEAVY DAMAGE FROM STORMS.
Growing Crops Ruined and Farmers
Need Relief.

Greenville,' Aug. 4.-HeaVy dam
age to growing crops, amounting IN
manv cases to complete destruction,
was wrought over large area IN
lower Greenville, Laurens, Anderson
and Greenwood counties last night
by the severest hail storm that has
visited this section in many years.
The storm covered a section about
thirty miles in length and approx
mately ten miles wide, according 10
reports received here today. Hall
stones as large as guinea eggs fell
thick and fast for an hour or more
stripping all vegetation of every
semblance of leaves, killing large
numbers Of birds and chickens that
were roosting in trees, and in some
cases smashing open watermelons.
Heaviest sufferers appear to be IN
lower Greenville county, in the Toney
Creek section, where a NUMBER OF
large farms were swept so completely
that not a plant was left that had not
been stripped of every leaf and beat
en- down to the ground. A scene O1
desolation was presented and great
many farmers and their families lost
everything they had and are in pa
thetic situation.
4 movement is under way here. 1t
was understood, to secure some relle1
measures until it is possible that the
legislative delegation will consider
the matter at an early date.

"INNOCENT" BUT "GUILTY.'
Ellis Shaw Now Being Held at Clear.
water, Florida.

St. Petersburg, Fla, Aug. 3.-Ar-
rested $50 miles from Anderson, S.
c., on charge of stealing new Ford
touring car in that city, Ellis Shaw,
South Carolina man, whose home is
in the northern part Of that state,
denied the charge and to prove that
he was not guilty Of the theft in An
derson, showed that the car in which
he was driving was stolen in this city
last June. He was promptly arrested
for the theft Of the car here-placed
in the Anderson Jail until the arrival
of the Florida sheriff who returned
here with him yesterday. Shaw is
now in the county jail at Clearwater.
Shaw came to St. Petersburg from
South Carolina last fall and for
time was employed by a transfer
company. In June he is said to have
become homesick and wanted to re-
turn to his native state.
Lacking the necessary funds, he
apparently decided to drive through,
and according to the police, "bor-
rowed" the Ford automobile belong
ing to o. E. Blackburn of this city,
in which to make the trip. The car
was taken while it stood in front of
the ball park.
Everything would have gone
through all right and Shaw would
probably never have been caught had
not someone stolen a new Ford in the
the city of Anderson just about the
time Shaw was passing through there.
Since he was a stranger and was driv-
ing a Ford, which about tailed in
description with the missing one, sus-
picion pointed to him after leaving
and he was ;overhauled by the sheriff
$50 miles out of Anderson.
To prove his innocence of the An
derson theft he was forced to make
a clean breast of the St. Petersburg
theft in June, on which charge he
was Jailed for the Florida authori-
ties.
Shaw will waive preliminary hear
ing and remain in jail until Septem-
Der term of court.

BOOZE PLOUGHED UP.
1 900 Quarts of Rum Turned Up In
Pennsylvania.

In Pennsylvania, Prohibition Di-
rector John T. Davis has become the
man with the plough" He and his
agents are running burrows over a
farm near Loganton, in Clinton coun-
ty, and so far they have turned up
35 barrels and more than 1000
quarts of moonshine.
Well digging as we'll as agriculture
has contributed to Mr.. Davis's detec-
tive methods, for he used divining
rod to locate the liquor. He is still
using it, for it is reported there area
hundred or more five gallon jugs yet
on the farm.
The proprietor Of this underground
storehuose is missing and SO are four
men suspected of being accomplices.

$500 Per Year in Advance.
Farmers Highly Pleased
uith Aduances on Tobacco

Monday morning the Tobacco
Growers Cooperative association
opened it's local warehouse, the Farm
ers Tobacco Warehouse, under the
local management of ]. F. Lane,
former Independent warehouse oper-
ator of this city. The first days busl-
ness through the association proved
highly successful and very satisfac-
tory to the planters. Under the CO.
operative system of marketing, a sub
stantiai advance is made to the farm
erimmediately on bringing the weed
toNke warehouse.
The amount of advances on the to-
bacco consigned to the warehouse was
well above the total amount brought
on the auction floor last year. 1t is
not known what proportion of the
estimated value of the tobacco is ad-
vanced on the spot, although some
local tobacco men think it is from
One-LQ1rQ 10 Oue-ud1l.
The scale of advances posted at
the warehouse Monday morning rang
ed as follows:
Wrappers-s17.50 to s22.75 per
100 pounds.
Cutters-s7.70 to s15.75 per 100
pounds.
Lugs-35c to $3.50 per 100
pounds.
Each of the above three grades is
divided into a number of sub-grades.
When the Bamberg market opened
a year ago, the average price paid for
tobacco was around six cents per
pound. On opening date two years
ago it averaged s21.60 per hundred.
One planters advances averaged
about II cents a pound, others from
to 10 cents a pound. 1t was con-
spicuous fact that very little lugs
were included in the first days con-
signment, and practically no tobacco
bringing less than around three cents
a pound.
Bruce Lee, one of the executive OH
GERS of the association, was present
at the opening Monday, and express
ed great satisfaction with the bus
mess of the warehouse. He felt very
much gratified with the quality of the
tobacco, and predicted good profit
to the tobacco planter this year. Mr..
Lees headquarters are in Rocky
Mount, n. c.
The Farmers warehouse is under
the management of Mr.. Lane, who
has the following staff of assistants:
E. L. Price, Sr., head bookkeeper.
w. NJ. Bates, assistant bookkeeper.
L. x. Adams, weigh master.
J. L. Thames, shipping clerk.
B. F. Irby, grader.
Mr.. Bates is we'll known in Bam-
berg, having been here for several
years past as a buyer for the I'm
perial Tobacco company. Messrs.
Adams, Thames and Irby are expert
enced tobacco men, all from Vir-
ginia.

Two Men Killed;
Third viii Die

are dead, the third will die, accord
ing to physicians, and lad ten years
Of age, the son of one of the dead
men is wounded as the result of
a desperate gun battle at the base of
CLASSY Rock mountain, the region of
of Greenville county known as the
dark corner" this afternoon. The
dead are: William Howard, 80
years of age, near whose home the
shooting ocucrred; Thomas Scruggs,
40 years of age and resident of
Spartanburg county.
The wounded are Alexander Sud-
duth, 80 years old, whose home is
on CLASSY Rock mountain; Dallas
Scruggs, ten years of age, a son of
Thomas Scruggs, who was killed.
The scene of the battle is near the
home of William Howard, six miles
west of Gowansville, and about nine
miles from Cambolello, imp the region
the United States government took
over in the war days as an artillery
range, and while it was early after
noon, it was towards evening before
even the local authorities were aware
of the tragedy, and an inquest was
held by Magistrate A. B. Plumley, of
Gowansville.
At 9 o'clock tonight Sheriff Rector
and Coroner Vaughan, of Greenvllle,
arrived at Gowansville. There they
met MAGISTRATE Plumley returning
from the scene of the shooting car
rying in his car the dead body OF
Thomas Scruggs, which was depos-
tied on the store platform, while the
Greenville officers went over the ev-
idence before the magistrates jury.
It was generally inadequate and 1t
is possible another inquiry will be
held. While the testimony does not
include the statement, it was freely
stated that the difficulty started
when Howard and Early Harrison
came upon Scruggs and the. boy at
Scruggs's car left on the road some
distance from Sudduth's house and
proceeded to look into a sack they
carried, which( it was stated, con-
tanned glass jars and four hot water
hotties. The testimony of Early Har-
rison is that William Howard fired
the first shot and Alexander Sudduth
returned the fire. Harrison says he
ran away, but returned later to hnd
the two men dead and the two woun-
ded.
The sheriff quotes Sudduth as fol-
lows in effect: ''Sudduth and
scruggs were sitting by the side OF
the road. Scruggs had sack con-
tanning several hot water bottles and
several glass jars full of liquor all
in the sack. Will Howard and Early
Harrison came up. Early Harrison
demanded them to halt and Will
Howard fired a rifle, shooting Sud-
duth in the bowels, and shot him sew
returned the fire and killed Will
eral times. Sudduth while falling
erturned the fire and killed Will
Howard Several other shots were
fired after Will Howard was shot
down and he thought Early fired.
This statement was given SherlH
Rector while Sudduth was undergo
ing blood TRANSMISSION.
