One Negro
Another
STRUCK BY INTERURBAN CAR
LAST NIGHT AT WIL
LIAMSTON
SITTING ON TRACK
And Apparently Were Either Dead
Drunk or Had Fallen Asleep
?Brought to Anderson.
One negro was killed and anolh
or seriously In lured last night by the
last Piedmont & Northern car fron?
Greenville to Anderson. i? Is said
'hat both, whose names it war im
possible to learn, were sitting on the
traek just this side of the trestle at
Wllliamston and there being a curve
there, the motormau was not aide to
sco them In time to bring the car to
a stop before striking'them. T&<u in
jured negro was brought on to thin
city and sent to the county hospi
tal. The body of the dead negro w:u
also brought to Anderson and was
taken to Tolly's undertaking estab
lishment on Kast Whitner street.
Conductor 8. J. Moorehend and
Motorman I. O. White wire In charge
of tho car which struck t!ie negroes
until It reached Helton, when It was
turned over to Couductor Uowcu and
Motorman Sanders. It being impossi
ble to get in touch with either of the
first men mentioned, accurate de
tails of the affair could not be gath
ered last night.
From tho story as told by those In
charge of the car when it reached
Anderson the two negroes were sit
ting on the track Just this side of thy
trestle at Wllllamston. Thero is a
curve In the road which causes the
headlight not to shed its rays on the
track except for n few feet in front of
the rar and It is supposed t: at the
negroes wore not seen until the train
was right upon them. It was stated
that Motorman White applied tho
brakes and brought the car to a sud
den stop but not until after the ne
groes had been struck. After a few
minutes the negroes were placed on
the car and brought on to Anderson.
Tho dead negro seems to have been
struck on the head, and nearly all of
one side was knocked off. lie was
otherwise bruised and out up about
the head and shoulders.
It was not known last night how
serious the other negro was Injured
but there was a deep hole knocked In
his head. Ho was questioned before
being taken to the hospital but was
not ablo to tell anything about the
acctdont. Me said that ho did not
re m era her being on tho track and did
not know how he got hurt. He denied
knowing the other negro and said
that ho had n^vcr soon"him before.
It seems that both were dead drunk
and were probably asleep.
Dr. Moore of Tucapau happened to
be on tho car and rendered what
medical attention he could to t&e in
jured negro before reaching this city.

picking the staplo and lu a little
while they had enough for u bale. It
was carried to the gin yesterday

It stayed on the square for a long
time and of course since it was the

MANY BUYERS ARE IN
NORTHERN MARKET
MR. B. O. EVANS STATES
THAT MANY ORDERS ARE
PLACED
_:_C?
BUSINESS IS GOOD
Bat Wool Supply is Running Short
and Clothing Will be Little
Higher in Spring.
- J^.M
Mr. O. O. Eva'ns,' of tke firm of
D. O. Evans and company, on his re
turn trip from New York stated to
I -t representative of The Intelllgon
i cur yesterday that he was very much
Impressed with the favorable condi
tions found In the north and that he
thought business would be a great
deal better this coming fall and win
ter than It was last, certainly there
more buyers In New York.
fTho buyers are making their
purchases late." stated Mr. Evans,"
and are buying conservatively. Many
of. the retailers did not make pur
chases from the traveling salesmen
for they are waiting to see how con
ditions would bo later. This helps
uccount for the fact that there are
so many In the markets at this time."1
"One big clothing dealer," contin
ued Mr. Evans, "told me that their
firm had an order from tho Italian
government for 500,000 overcoats, a
$2,000,000 order. Another told mo that
they were making overcoats for the
English. One man stated that one of
the manufacturers from- which he
bought cloth had two big mills and
that one of these waa making cloth
cspeclallly for the allies. Tho fact
that so many overcoats and heavy
goods aro being bought seem to in
dicate that the allies are planning
for another winter campaign.
"Clothing will bo a little higher be
cause the allies arc consuming near
ly all of tho wcol and the' supply Is
scarce. This increase v 111 not be felt
so much this fall and winter but
next spring there will be an Increase
of about per cent. The mills are
golr g to charge about 25 per cent
mors for their woolens and this will
necessarily forco the price of cloth
ing up.
Mr. Evans stated. that he had
bought a complete and up-to-date lino
of clothing and gents' furnishing and
that the goods were hfsgjfhining to
srrive dally. Ho stated that when
all arrived his stock would bo tho
most complete that he hart ever car*
ried.
