AT WORK ON THE NEUSE.
1t will be remembered that the Nor
folk and Southern steamer Neuse went
aground near Sans Scuci Cashie river,
| y. c., during the late West Indian hur-
ricanc, and 1t was feared she would
prove total loss. Since that time ef-
| fnrts- have -hecn under way to release
her. channel was dredged on one
| side of her and an attempt made to
| jack her into 1t. This proving unsuc-
cessful channel was made on the
other side with the idea OF sucking out
| the mud from under her, but the mud
proved so tenacious that dynamite is
now being used to loosen 1t.
Those at work on her now hope to
| get her out all right although the ex-
| pense will be heavy.
The barge williamsburg (new) has
| arrived at Norfolk from New York for
her machinery. She will take that of the
| former steamer Olive Branch, which
used to run on the James river. This
Will be installed by the Southern Iron
works. after which the barge will be
ready for business.
