Florence.?The European war scare las thrown a bomb in the to be coo (market, and it ie generally under-1 'stood that export buyers have been | (called off the market through the en-1 tire bolt until foreign buaineee settles [on a now basis. No one of the to-1 baooo men here will take the reaponei-1 hillty of giving out anything for pub'licatkm and say that there is nothing yet to aay except that conditions have materially affected the market and the buyers do not know just where tbey stand. It ia not thought that this condition will last long, for the tobacco from this belt is eagerly ought for, especially in England, and the market normally would absorb a crop much larger than the present at | high price. Wataon Vialts Hail 8ection. Columbia.?E. J. Watson, commie soner of agriculture, spent two full days last week tlei ting the hail stricken district in York county, with the purpose of procuring, if possible, state and federal aid. Within the next few days Mr. Wateon will go to Washington to present the resolutions adopted by the sufferers and their friends, memorallz?lrig congress that something be done by the national government to relieve the destitute circumstances. To supplement any other assistance that the atate may render, Mr. Wateon s&y6 that be will ask the next general assembly to remit aH taxes from the farmers In this district for Cvo years. He win auso asc ior at j appropriation to supply these with, oed oorn and cotton seed for nest year's crope. If this materialises, the 1 eonsmiaaioner says that a type of oot-1 ton will be introduced that can with-' sntaad the ravages of the boll weevil ' I - American Tourists Panicky. Antwerp.?American tourists here ; ase in a panicky condition. The; Kroonland sailed with a full comple-1 nnent of passengers, many of whom left their baggage behind rather than remain in Europe. The civic guard hi? been called out. Saks Increase. Florence.?The meeting of bankers and tobacco men here seems to have j given strength to the market and the j alee were good and at prices as good as lest year. Buyers feel confident that the banks can and will take care o1 Theni and warehousemen are working hard to prevent a slump. The tobacco crop of this section would be worth on a normal market as much as $30,000,000, and that Is too great a eum to trifle with in view of a 26 per oral ahort cotton crop, and in many section* very much shorter than that 'tr' New Gas Superintendent. ' Rook Hill.?J. W.
