EASTERN CAROLINA RAILROADS.
Plan to Extend Service by Barges from
Goose Creek Island to Bellhaven.

There is a rumor afloat that indi-
Gates that there is to be tufthef eH-
tension of railroad interests in eastern
North Carolina, and that the Atlantic
Coast Line is to share in the business
that is to be done.
The building of the Pamlico, Or1en-
tai and Western Railroad has been
told of. This road begins at New
Bern, goes eighteen miles to Bayboro
nine to Vandemere, with a branch OF
eight miles to Oriental sixteen to
Goose Creek Island, or Gold Point, on
the Pamlico.
Here, it is said the railroad traf-
fic will be supplemented by boats and
barges. BY means of boats Swan
Quarter and other points in Hyde
county will be reached Then, it is
strongly believed, there will also be
barges to Belhaven in Beaufort coun-
ty, distance about fourteen miles from
Gold Point, and that on these bargeS
the loaded cars will be taken from the
Pamlco, Oriental and Western, and at
Belhaven turned over to the Norfolk

THE BILL0WS BURST IN A
GLORY OF FIRE AND BLOOD

shells are bursting everywhere, their
white smoke being distinctly trace
able against the dark foliage on the
mountain sides. The Japanese are
searching the whole country side
with their fire, selecting certain
squares of territory on which for a
few moments they mass hal. of shot
and shell from all their guns They
then pass to another square, thus
working the whole field, with mathe-
matical precision from right to left.
In this way the entire Russian front
has been Systematically searched in
the first four hours of the cannonad-
ing. Then commenced the general
Japanese advance along the whole
line.
At this hour, 10 a. m. the Japanese
artillery fire has somewhat slackened,
but their infantry is steadily pushing
forward.
The Russians have been holding
their ground gallantly, and their losses
are small considering the terrible ma
ture of the Japanese fire.
