FISH INDUSTRY LOST $1,000,000 BY STORM Virginia and North Carolina Sea- son Getting Under Way When Practically Checked. By the Aseociated Pross. NORFOLK, Va., March 7.—Belated reports from coast points in Virginiy and North Carolina continue to bring news of heavy damage suffered by fishermen in the recent storm, and the total loss along the bays and sounds of the two States in destroyed nets is estimated at as high as $1,000,- 000 or more. The loss is felt particularly at this time as the shad run had just begun when the storm broke and fishermen were getting good prices for their catches, which are shipped largely to northern markets. With their nets gone operations have been curtailed or suspended entirely, and what looked like a prosperous season has been turned into disaster. Trainman Hurt in Crash.
