The Southbound Railwty.
As result of the mass meeting in
Winston last Wednesday the corre
tpondraU it that place state that tbe
proposed Southbound railroad from
that place to tome point oa the Car
olina Central railway, will certainly
be built The scheme is a very am
bitioua one, judging from the fol
lowing, taken from the report aent
out:
"In a nut-shell. there ia back of
the scheme a wonderful plan looking
forward to the construction of the
Panama Canal The plan embrace
the connection of the Norfolk
Western, the great coal-hauling road,
with both the Seaboard and the At
lantic Coast line systems, and the
entrance into Charleston, S. C, a
city south of Cape Hatter. By
connecting with the two great sys
tems mentioned, it means the deliv
ery to thera of their entire supply of
coal for their Southern point over
the Southbound Railway, and it
meana the construction of a great
coaling station at Charleston, where
all vessels bound for Pacific points
through the Panama Canal can coal
south of the dreaded Cape HaUeras."
Col. F. H. Fries, president of the
Wachovia Loan A Trust Co., and a
very weathly and interprising man,
says that he is assured by those be
hind him that they are ready to build
the road, and he knows that they are
able to do so. The conditions seems
to be that the communities along the
line must furnish right of way and
f 500,000, whether, the latter is to
be a donation or a subscription to
stock is not stated, presumably the
former.
The three routes proposed are as
follows: One from Winston-Salem,
via High Point, down the Uwharrie
river and along the left bank of the
Pee Dee river, to Rockingham and
Hamlet, thence connecting with the
Atlantic Coast Line at Gibson for
Charleston. Another route, via Isl
ington and Wadesboro, connecting
with the Atlantic Coast Line at the
latter point for Charleston. A third
route, via Lexington, Mount Pleas
ant, Monroe, Jefferson, S. C, McKee,
8. C, connecting with the Atlantic
Coast Line near Sumter for Charles
ton. Still there is another rout
bidding for the road by Salisbury,
Concord and Monroe. At the meet
ing last Wednesday a great many
speeches were made by representa
tives from the several sections, in
cluding those of Messrs. Armfield
and Stack from Monroe. It is to be
hoped that the project will not fail.
Other places are doing their best,
and it is to our interest to be stirring
hereabouts whenever the time comes
to stir.
From a most graphic and enter
taining article in Everybody's Mag
azine, entitled Hell at Port Arthur,
by an eye witness, we take the fol
lowing: ' Before General Baron Nogi sail
ed for Manchuria his first son, 8ho
ten, climbed the frightful Nanshan
Jlill, only to get a builct in the brain
at be sabeed a Russian lieutenant
cross the parapet. The corpse ar
rived in Tokyo tho day the General
left, and Nogi said to his wife: "De
lay funeral services until Hoten and
I are brought back to lie with Sho
ten." Hoten went with the father
a a lieutenant in the first division.
On December 18th a Keissheitai
(certain death party) was called for
to make the last assault against the
hill known as "203-meter." Hoten
led it The hill fell. Hoten went to
join Shoten."
Compare this with the heroism of
the man, who, in the great fire at
Brocton yesterday, when pinned
down and staring awful death in the
face, told the rescuers to let him
lone and help those behind, at the
same time reaching over and help
ing the girls behind, and you will
realize that "peace hath her victories
do less renowned than those of war."
The complete disaster to the Rus
sian arms ha seemed to bring peace
little nearer than before. General
Linevitch haa succeeded General Ku
ropatkin, and the retreat continues.
The Cur declares that another big
army shall be sent out, but those who
study the situation say that Russia
is now really helpless and that it
would be a year before she could
hope to strike an effective blow.

SCORES KILLED BY EXPLOSION
Shock Wreck tb BuOdiag and

Roasted Oreat tterekwa.
Rt tho inkwioa at boiler in a
big shoe factory at Broctoa, Mass.,
yesterday, about seventy-nve peopie
were killed or burned to death by
the subsequent fire.
The explosion was immediately
fcJLwuH he a Hash of tknte. which
consumed the factory, a long, four
inr iti-M-inm. a if it were a house
of card, and incinerated an unknow n
number of men and women, woo
WAN) unable to extricate thenwelve
from a mass of tangled wreckage
formed by the terrible upheaval in
the boiler room. More than half a
hiin.1rwi of the emDlovea in the
building were maimed, burned or
bruised by the time they reached
safe ground. Some had jumped from
ihA nmf aume from windows, and
others had been injured in the mad
rush to escape trom me aomnea we
tory, which from all part emitted
the intense, awful heat f an inferno,
driving back the band of heroic res
cuer w ho in a few brief moments
had performed gallant service.
Scarcely had the rear portion of
th structure oollaosed when a tongue
of flame started up from the boiler
pit and reaching out as it ascenuea.
and setting fire to the wreckage.
Soon the entire factory was in flames.
Instant death was the fate of many
who went down with the floors that
collapsed. A large number of men
and women who were working near
th aunnorta were alive after the
floors and walls fell. From these
unfortunates the dying agonies of
terror went up, and they rent the air
with their cries. By this time near
by citizens bad arrived to assist the
employes who escaped, in the rescue
f thir fallow This task became
momentarily more difficult and pe
rilous, for the neat Jrora tne nre was
ilmmt unbearable. Bv the use of
long piece of timber the rescuers
were able to raise parts oi mewreca
age and thereby release some of the
imnnsoned men and women, and
then by rushing into the smoke pull
them from the rums.
Then it was that acts of sacrifice
and heroism were seen. One man
whose legs were caught under an
iron beam, cried to the rescuers that
they could not extricate him, and to
help the girl behind him Stretch
ing his arms, he lifted several girls,
one by one, and passed them to the
rescuers. Then the fire reached him
and he died. A woman who was
KntanLrled in a shoe machine cried
out that she was dying, and com
manded the rescuers to attend to
others who might live. She begged
to be shot Soon flames enveloed
her. Among the first to arrive on
the scene was Rev. James O'Rourke,
eiirate at St. Marcaret's Roman Cath
olic church, near by. At the risk of
his life, he removod seven persons
from the ruins before the tire had
reached them and was returning for
the eighth time when he fainted
from the effect of the smoke and the
shock.
Father 'Rourke said last night:
"In order to reach the imnnsoned
sufferers we had to crawl through
the debris, and with tlie aid oi a
large timber we raised the wreckage
which held fast several men and
women. In this manner, and by
brute strength, we pulled out seven
employes.
"By this time the flames were al
most upon us and we were aUmt to
rW fur aafntv. when one Door fellow
begged that a last effort be made to
save him. Three of us grasped the
man by the shoulders and arms ana
twamA anil nulled until suddenly
he cried: 'My God, my leg is pulled
off!'
"It was terrible and especially so
heratise a moment later, with our
clothing scorched, we were ordered
away by the chief of the fire depart
ment and were reluctantly compelled
to leave the poor man to his fate.
"Just before leaving I saw just
fifteen of the imprisoned operatives:
some already suffering untold agon
ies from the flames which were ac
tually cooking their flesh, and others
watching with terror-stricken eyes
the fate of their companions, know
ing that a moment or two would
bring to them similar suffering, and
then death."
With tear-stained and haggard
faces women and children besieged
the church during the day, pleading
with the nriests for information
about husband, father, sister or
brother who failed to return home.
Little comfort could be given to
these people.
At the Campbello police station a
similar scene was enacted. Early
in the dav. Msvor Keith, foreseeins
the confusion which would ensue,
posted notices in conspicuous places,
iwiiipatinv all emnlnvea who had es-
n - - s - ' ,
caped to go at once to the police
. . i . L : rrl
siauon ana give ineir names, i u-m-names
were posted, and around this
list of names hovered a throng of
women many hysterical with grief,
because the list did not include a
relative.
