Robert 3. Marlborough, Esq, of Con-
way, S. c., who is i'll the city ON pro-
fessional business told a. member Of
the Messenger staff 1ast night that
during the season just closing the to-
bacco warehouse in his town has sold
three-quarters of a million pounds Of
loose leaf. This statement was made
to him by Mr.. J. E. Coles h manager
on last Friday. Mr.. Marlborough say
that the industrial development which
has distinguished Conway since the
establishment of the tobacco industry
in that section is very great.
The lumber interest are also, he says
being developed quite rapidly. Vast
areas of timber lands are being pur-
chased by the Atlantic Coast Timber
Company, of Georgetown and the Cape
Fear Lumber Company of Wilmington.
There are also other purchasers and
the competition is serving to material
ly raise the prices paid the land own
ers for their timber.
Mr.. Marlborough says good progress
is being made by the Burroughs and
Collons Company, of Conway in the
construction of a railroad across the
country IA miles to the seashore and
will be pushed at once to completion.
The special object of the road is to
render that section, which is heavily
timbered, accessible and also ultimate
ly to establish a seaside resort, the
company owning as they do about %
miles of sea front. The. railroad from
Fair Bluff to Conway is now handling
quite a good deal of timber. Mr.. Var
borough says Conway has gained sew
eral hundred inhabitants within the
past few months.
