STEAMSHIP COMPANY ANSWER.

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

Florence, July 20?Dr. F. H. Me
Deod, Mayor W. It. Barringer, *H. F.
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.
