Turlington, from whom the Commis- mission proposes to purchase, has agreed to extend the option until Wed nesday night of this week. The only action of importance last night was the authorization of the chairman to employ Capt. Walter G. MacRac to begin at once a survey of the entire property to ascertain exactly how much of the pond is included in the proposed purchase. It is thought that if the survey is not completed m the limited time extended that still furth er time may be granted. It is understood that as soon as the survey is completed, an immediate search of the title will be commenc ed by the City Attorney and that the complications that have arisen will be definitely settled one way or another in a very short time. The municipal ownership preposi tion in being widely discussed on the streets. While there is some differ ence of opinion on the question of municipal ownership generally there is a wide variance of opinion as to the purchase of the particular proper- TO CONNECT AT GOLDSBORO. Southern Railway Train -Hereafter Will Not Be Delayed. The matter having been reported to the Corporation Commission, Vice President A. B. Andrews, of the South ern Railway, has given assurance that in the future Southern Train No.-112, due at Goldsboro at 7 o'clock, will hereafter connect at that point with A. C..L. train No. 41 for Wilmington and with the northbound A. C. L. train for Fremont, Wilson, Rocky Mount and points North, as well as with the A. & N. C, for Morehead City and Newbern. There has been fre quent complaint here that the morn ing train misses connection at Golds ooro and the matter vas being seri ously considered here when the South ern's vice president gave the assiir ance noted above. This is gocd news for all Eastern North Carolina and for all travellers who go from -Western or Central North Carolina to points east of Golds boro.

The company on yesterday made ap plication to Building Inspector H.

Nearly 250 feet of water front has been acquired by lease and the promoters of the industry hope to have the factory in full operation by Jan uary loth.

But laterly the train has often reached Goldsboro behind time and missed all the connections. That has . been very disappointing to the travelling public. Complaint was made to the Corporation Commission. That body took the ma'ter up with Vice President. Andrews, who reported it to the operating department. The rail road company has had under consid eration several weeks the question of how they could best make the connec tion. For the past few weeks the connec tion has been missed practically every day which meant that anywhere' fi;om 1,500 to 2,000 letters for Wilmington were delayed at Goldsboro to say noth ing of the papers, the delay being at least eight hours.
