TOBACCO REPORT ].
FOR AUGUST

Columbia, Sept. 1.-THE tobac-
co report of the state department
OF Agriculture, made public today,
shows that the average price per
poundsfor the staple for the month
of August was 21.05 cents, conapar-
ed with 1910 cents for the same
period last year. There was con-
siderable falling off in sales. the
number Of pounds disposed of being
|17,416,025. comapred with 34,120,-
$50 during August 1921, but the
aggregate amount received was al
most as much as last year, when
the sales in August totared S4,131,-
1864, and this year they totaled
1865, $50. Sixteen markets and
warehouses were reported. Only
during the four years from 1917
to 1920 inclusive, has the price for
tobacco been larger
The price being received for the
staple is largely attributed to the
Cooperative Marketing Association,
which has handled most of the
South Carolina crop this year. That
is one Of the reasons, likewise, why
the sales for the month are small
er than last year. or for any year
since 1876; the association is not
dumping the leaf on the market
at one time, but is holding it for,
fair prices.

of a race riot between whites and

sion by negroes of a neighborheod
tenanted by white families. Police
reserves quelled. the battle.
Three of the siS seriously injur-
ed are under arrest and under po-
lice guard in hospitals. They are
white men, all charged with felon-
ious assault. They are suffering
from razor cuts, stab wounds and
broken heads. A negro and two
negresses also are in hospitals but
have not been arrested.
The battle occurred in West 59th

the police say, trouble has been
brewing for some time following

the blacks. Early today party OF
white men is alleged to have in
vaded hall where celebration Of
negroes was in progress. They
were elected, later they dragged
two negresses and their male es-
eorts from taxicab and set upon
them:
This is said to have precipitated
a general battle, whites and blacks
flecking to the melee from all di-
rections. Razors, knives and clubs
augmented fists, while adherents Of
both factions stood on nearby tene-
1nent roofs and hurled into the
swirling mass, bricks torn from
chimneys Riot calls brought sew
eral squadron Of police, who rush
ed the two factions into an en-
forced peace.
Extra police tonight are patroll-
ing the neighborhood to prevent
a resumption Of hostilities.
