WHITEVILLE MADE
RECORD BREAKING
SALES LAST WEEK
Continued from page one
Tuesday, a day when rain fall
was incessant, 704,282 pounds of
the leaf was sold to bring the total
sales of the market through that
day to 14,518.602 or 2,374,129
pounds more than was sold all
last year. It is expected that
enough tobacco will be brought
here by Friday to bring the
market's total poundage to 16,000,000
or more by the end of
this week. This phenomial gain
is the greatest shown by any of
the Border Belt's big markets
and it is a splendid testimonial
to the tobacconists of Whiteville.
It is useless to say that the
rapid growth of the market can
be accounted for only by the high
prices that have prevailed every
since opening day .... high
prices that have been paid for
every type of tobacco offered
since sales started, and prices
that have been consistently high
on every day of the week. Every
large manufacturer of tobacco
products in the world and every
large independent dealer in the
world is represented on the
Whiteville market this year and
it seems as if each and every
one of these buying companies is
eager for the tobacco that has
been carried here. Competition
has been keen all season, and it
can be said that satisfaction has
been prevalent among the growers
who have sold here every
since the market's opening.
Through Friday of last week
there was only a difference of
$2.14 in the average price the
grower was paid last year and
the price he is receiving this
year. Monday's and Tuesday's
Prices were reported to be as
high as have been paid at any
~.ime during the season and the
narket's average at the close of
the week will be close to last
year's figure than it was last
week. >

nephew of the Misses Anglin.
Mrs. Hilda Weiss, wife of a
Brooklyn silk merchant.
Captain Penderson said the first
call for help from the Dixie came
Monday midnight and the tankei
was then 35 miles away. It was
bound from Port Arthur, Texas
to Wilmington at that time. He
immediately started to the linei
and obtained its position about (
o'clock Tuesday morning anc
started standing by. Other vessels
steamed to the rescue anc
by Wednesday afternoon the ses
had calmed enough to take.pas
sengers off the grounded craft
The Reaper sent two boats at
1:40 o'clock and one of them
in charge of Officer Jacobson
was the second of all craft to
the Dixie. The first was a coast
guard boat. The women were
calm as they boarded the tankei
and everyone was given a warm
meaL "They have been the nicest
| passengers we have ever had,'
- the captain stated.
It was also learned that th<
Reaper was the first ship to an
swer the Dixie's SOS. Operato
i Payne said he had retired bu
was awakened by the startling
three dots, three dashes an<
11 three dots of the distress signal
! He returned to his instrument
and copied: "SOS Steamer Dixie
Aground on Carysford reef. Twi
hundred and sixty passengers am
115 crew. Need assistance." Th
Reaper's captain was notified im
mediately and headed for th
Dixie. Operator Payne stood b;
his set for the next four hours.
After picking up the survivor
The Reaper turned north. It wa;
first thought that she would no
arrive until Saturday but Frida;
morning Mr. Curtis was notifiei
at Wilmington she would appea
off the Cape Fear bar at 5:01
; o'clock in the afternoon. The ter
minal superintendent, after mak
; ing arrangements to have th<
passengers taken to Wilmington
(came here in the afternoon an<
(obtained the pilot boat, with Cap
(tain I. B. Bussels and Enginee:
.Harry Weeks in charge. It spec
lover the choppy bar and met the
j tanker several miles at sea ai
5:50 o'clock. Captain J. I. Davi:
was the first over the side of the
Reaper and he piloted her intc
port. The Reaper arrived in the
harbor shortly before 7:30 o'clocl
and was met by a patrol boal
'from the Oak Island coast guarc
station, in charge of Officer G
IB. O'Neal. It was but a mattei
(of a few minutes to gather up
