FORTY KNOWN DEAD
IN SOUTHERN FLOOD
Eleven Persons Were Drowned
In Villages of Chimney Sock
and Bat Cave, N. 0.
AT LEAST SIX ABE MISSING
Atlantt Ga., July 19. As reports
filtered through tcday from parts of
h western North Carolina the death list
resulting from floods in southeastern
' North Carolina continued to grow.
Six additional . fatalities were re
ported today, bringing the known
death list to forty, while at least six
' ' persons were missing.
Eleven oersons were drowned in
. ' the villages of Bat Cave and Chim
ney Rock, M. C, which meager re-
ports show were hard hit by the
storm. Two unidentified bodies were
V ' found near Belmont, N. Cr . today,
while another death is reported from
near Greenville, S. C, in the falling
of a railway scaffold undermined by
the floods. '" i
5 While flood waters -were receding
in" North Carolina, . Tennessee and
. ' Virginia today, rivers in South Car
olina were rising. v ,
Tw Villages Washed Away.
Asheville, N. C, July 19,-Flood
waters in the Carolinas and portions
of adjacent states were rapidly need
ing today, leaving in their wake a
property loss variously estimated at
from $12,000,000 to $15,000,000, and a
list of deaths from drowning that has
steadily increased since the waters
, rose Sunday. Today the toll of hu
man life stood at thirty-four, with
: prospects that it might be increased
' still further. . .
! Two small villages in Rutherford
i county, North Carolina, tnown as
- Chimney Rock and Bat Cave, suf
fered severe damage from the volume
t of water that swept down the narrow
valley of the Rocky Broad river, ac-
cording to meager reports reaching
here. The towns, each of which has
a hundred or more inhabitants, are
more than twenty-five miles from a
; railroad and without wire communica-
' tion. - - ' '
From Spartanburg, S. C, came a
report that persons arriving there
said almost all of Chimney Rock
was washed away and that there was
no siga of its inhabitants. ' It was
- pointed out, however, that they might
' have reached high ground Ui time to
f save themselves. Eight (.erjons were
uid to have been drowned at Bat
Cave.
Loss to railroads, industrial plants
and agricultural interests :a North
' and South Carolina ha mounted into
the millions, and it may be weeks be
fore the transportation system is
S restored. Nearly all passengers
; marooned since Sunday on trains in
this section had been removed to
I" day, however, and in many localities
' repair work was being rushed and
' thousands of cotton mill spindles
' were beginning to turn again.
.' Conditions in Virginia and West
Virginia were almost normal today
It and great loss vas not feared to the
coast cection of South Carolina.

FIGHT DEVELOPS IN
DRYMHYENTION
Straggle Between Partisans of
Hanley and Sulzer for Nomi
nation Becomes Bitter.
COMPROMISE SUGGESTED
St. Paul, Minn., July 19. The con
vention of the national prohibition
party was called to order at 10:20
o'clock this morning with delegates
from practically every state in attend
ance. The arrival of John P. St. John
of Kansas, the party's candidate for
E resident in 18e4, evoked the tirst out
urst of applause by delegates.
Meetings of rival bodies of dele
gates favoring the nomination of J.
Frank Hanly and William Sulzer for
president preceded the convention ses
sion and under surtace talk ot .. w.
Chafin as a compromise candidate
grew as the bitterness ot the Manly
Sulzer contest increased.
Late last nieht the boom for Mr.
Hanly grew to such proportions that
Mr. Sulzer, who has said he would
not be here during the convention,
telegraphed his followers that he
would arrive Thursday and enter the
fight in an effort to keep the nomi
nation from going to Mr. Hanly.
The contest between the supporters
of Mr. Sulzer and Mr. Hanly devel
oped several secret sessions, which
lsated until earlv this morning. Meet
ings of delegates and leaders were
held this morning before the opening
ot the convention.
Keynote Is by Poling.
Temnorarv Chairman Daniel A,
Poling of Boston delivered the key
note address when he attacked the
"militarism and the preparedness pro
grams of the democratic ana re
publican parties and delegates stood
up throughout the Auditorium and
cheered.
Chairman Poling also attacked
munitions manufacturers, and exulted
at the progress of the prohibition and
suffrage movements.
Virgil G. Hinshaw of Chicago,
chairman of the national committee,
called the convention to order more
than an hour after the time set by
the program committee.
Prayer was offered by Samuel C.
Edsall of Minneapolis, bishop of the
Episcopal church in Minnesota. '
Mrs. Frances E. Beauchamp of
Lexington, Ky., secretary of the na
tional committee, read the official call
and Mr. Poling was then introduced
as temporary chairman, immediately
launching into nis speecn.
Batteries Are Unmasked.
An earlv morning Sulzer meeting
was the signal for the unmasking of
the batteries of the Sulzer and Hanly
forces and bitter debates took place
in hotel lobbies, in which the New
Yorker's followers accused Hanly of
trying to seize control of the party
while some Hanlv's adherents ac
cused Sulzer of accepting the support
