Dr. Ramsey in f| history of South Carolina, says I that 6n this occasion numerous large ??W?lling houses were carried down tho riven and pructlcally all the '?ridges from the mountains to the sea were swept away. So great was the rtood at the mouth of the Santee ver?the n ime of the stream after the* junction of the Broad* and Con ?pgf on the one hand and the Ca t iwba and Wutcrec on the other? that for days the ebbing of the Udos were scarcely corcelvable.

At Grunby, on the Con garee, and at Camden on the Wat?r ee, tho water is said to have risen to a height of forty feet. Just above the conduence of the two rivers a stago Of twenty-one feet was reached. STEAMSHIP COMPANY ANSWER. Files Reply in Gallon n Month Test Suit?Imwh Cited. Charleston PoRt. The Paltirnore and Carolina Steam? ship Co., through their attorneys, Fin? ger, Wilbur ?fc Guerard, yesterday filed an answer in tho United States district court to the bill of complaint of W. F. Galnos, who charged them with violat? ing a section of the constitution in that they refused to deliver him a quantity of beer In excess of tho gallon a month allowed by law which had' been ship? ped from Baltimore. Tho bill of com? plaint was tiled sometime ago by Geo F Von Kolnitz, Jr., attorney for the plaintiff. The hearing was duo to ho held yesterday, but owing to the :.b ienee of Mr. Van KotnUi from the city, was indefinitely put off. Tho doftnd ants also tiled a motion to dismiss the complaint in addition to their answer. In tiic answer to the complaint, the attorneys for the defendant transpor? tation company cite the Wilson Hill of 1HD0 and tho Wcbb-Kenyon act of IMS as an argument in favor of their refusal to deliver the beer. These acts of congress provide that tho class of s such as carrying alcoholic liquors .should be subject to laws of lot al jurisdiction. Thus the act of the ^outh Carolina legislature controlling the importation of liquor in this State will have jurisdiction. The acts of o '.gross referring to this have be Mi b< an declared constitutional by the courts of the United States it Is ar ? ;ued in the answer.

Dargan, Dr. Hugh Smith of Timmons villc and James McLeod, Dr. MeLeod's ton, who left Florence early Wednes? day morning for Pee Dee riVer and then on Dr. McDcod's naptha launch Kita for Winyah bay, narrowly escap? ed with their lives from the hurricane which struck them while off South la land in the lower bay about 1 o'clock Thursuay afternoon. While tishing iu the bay the party noticed the hoist? ing of the storm signals at South Is? land life saving station and Imme? diately weighed anchor and made headway at full speed for Georgetown. The hurricane fell upon them, how? ever, within a fow minutes and with? out other warning.' The wind attain? ed a terrillc velocity and in an incredi? bly short time whipped up a raging sou. The cross current of the bay and the heavy tide caught the light craft in its fury and half tilled with water the party succeeded in reaching South Island where they beached the boat. The government tender Snowdrop which was making for shelter observ? ed the stranded party and succeeded at great peril In taking them aboard. Later the Snowdrop took up a picnic party on Mosquito creek who would have been lost but 1for the rescue. NEW FLOOD RECORDS MADE. Waters Prom Piedmont Sweeping Through Eastern Carolina. Florence, July 20.?The waters from the Piedmont section of the State aro sweeping down wfth force to the sea through Eastern Carolina and are establishing records never before heard of. The Santce River at Remi ni is twenty-five Inches higher than the great Hood of 1908, but despite this fact and that the water Is five feet above the rail on the trestle at Uemtnl tho trestle at 9:30 o'clock to night is held intaot because of its being weighted with a solid line oi four hundred box and coal cars. Tho crest was reached at 6 o'clock this evening at that point and the waters are now receding. At Bobbins Neck, on the Bennetts ville division, the crest has beeh reached and tho waters began reced? ing at 0 o'clock this evening. At Wa terce, on the Columbia division, the I water has been receding all day long and no further dcmolishment of tres? tle has occurred. The drawbridge is now safe, the Coast Dine people began this evening assembling men and ma? terial at Eastovei and Camden junc? tion to repair the damage done by the going down of tho four thousand feet of trestle work. As soon as men can get into the swamp the work will go rapidly forward, but official esti? mates place it at two weeks before traffic will be resumed between Flor? ence and Columbia. This afternoon several additional bents under the Jeffrey's Creek t:*ostle, two miles south of Florence, wont out and trains are tied up on the main line going north and south. This trouble will be remedied by morning and the main line opened up again. Traffic is badly congested be? tween Florence and Charleston and besides the uso of double tracks be? tween Danes and Charleston the Coast Dine is diverting south-bound trains via Sumter to keep trains moving. The Coast Dine is moving hundreds of cars of Georgia peaches over this route and that with the many other trains of their own and the Seaboard Air Dine is causing the congestion. Seldom in the history of railroading have otlicers and men worked more faithfully on a railroad than they have on the Coast Dine day and night to keep traffic on the move and their lines open.
