Churchill's Railroad.

Several months ago the DISPATCH
called attention to the surveyors work
ing III Churchill and said they were
looking TOR a new route. The follow
ing dispatch from Wells further con-
firms the news:
"A number Of surveying parties are
in the field in different parts Of the
State of Nevada, under the direction
Of Engineer Allen, searching for routes
and cut-offs which seem likely to i'm
prove the line of the Southern Pacific
railroad.
Another party started at Wads-
worth. taking the south side of the
track and crossing the low divide be-
tween the Truckee and Carson rivers,
left the rough grade over Hot Springs
and White Plains hills to the left.
This thirty miles is destitute Of water,
which Is hauled by train from Wads-
worth. Two or three helpers are kept
at Hot Springs to assist trains over the
grade. BY going south Of the noun
tain this expense would be avoided.
The line could come into the present
road at White Plains, or it could keep
south of Lovelock and Humboldt Lake,
striking the road at Mill City. That
would bring 1t near the great deposits Of
iron in Buena Vista valley and close
to the East range where the |. x. L.
silver mines, the White Cloud copper
mines and the nickel mines are located,
1t is said that the road would have been
put there when 1t was built but for the
fact that a shlpload Of railroad iron
was lost at sea and in the rush to gel
into Salt Lake to meet the Union Pa
cific the track was laid over the hills
making a shorter line. The Union
Pacific was rushing west in an effort
to get beyond Ogden and control Utah
business, while California men were
straining every nerve to get to Evans
ton as they could secure it.

DUNBAR, Pa, December 19.-Excitement

is in the Connellsville hospital, riddled with
bullets, and is expected to die at any
time.
George Templeton, a negro gambler and
desperate, is supposed to have entered and
robbed house of one of the workmen
at Mount Braddock last night, and when
the robbery was reported at the works
this morning Supt. Fletcher W. Cunning
ham started an investigation. Among 9TH
ers, he asked Templeton where he spent
last night. Instead of replying, the negro
at once said he would kill Mr.. Cunning
ham for insinuating that he had anything
to do with the thieving. After some loud
talk, he drew revolver from his pocket
and as Mr.. Cunningham was unarmed,
Sanford White, standing close by, ran and

soon afterward.

the desperate. In an instant everything
was In an uproar. The rapid firing of re-
volvers drew the workmen from their
ovens, and men from all that region joined
at once in the chase after the murderer.
and among the crowd were eight good
guns.
Tenlpleton, although wounded, ran for
the mountains, which are close to the
works, but the pursuing party kept firing
at him. He ran hard at first, but he soon
began to weaken, and before the woods
were reached he was compelled to surren-
der, being too weak from loss of blood to
go any further. He received a bullet in
the back, which entered under the right
shoulder and is supposed 10 have lodged
in his right lung.
When arrested Tenpleton had little to
say. and was not even able to walk He
was laid on rude stretcher and carried
back to the scene of the killing. AS soon
as possible preparations were q1ade and
Templeton was taken on a train 10 the

He is said to have come TO the coke

LONDON, December 20, 4:45 a. m
The government has at last consented
to mobolize force which Gen. Butler
is credited with having demanded all
along as essential of success In South
Africa, namely ten thousand mounted
infantry. This morning the war ONCE
issued an order to the effect that the
government had decided to raise for
South Africa a mounted force to be
called Imperial Yoemanry," and to be
recruited from yoennanry, volunteers
and civilians possessing the requisite
qualifications.
Enlistment viii be for one year or
during the continuance of the war. The
men must be between 20 and IS years
of age and of equal physique to the or
binary cavalry soldier. Officers and
men are to provide their own horses
and to wear neutral tint cloth shoot
ing Jackets, not necessarily uniform,
felt hats, breaches and CATERS. All
must be good riders and marksmen.
The same order invites every volun-
teer regiment that is linked with a
regular battalion serving at the front to
supply full company, which will take
the place of the mounted infantry Of
the regiment.
These arrangements are expectd to
result in a considerable force. The en-
rolled strength of the yeomanry forces,
which originated in the troublous per-
iod of the French revolution, is now
10,433. Their services have never be-
fore been called for in war.

CHIEVELY CAMP, Natal, Friday,
December 15.-The relief column con-
tinued its advance from Chievley early
to-day, intending to assail the Boer po-
sitions, which were known to be very
strong to the westward and northwest
of Colenso
During the two preceding days the
Beers had allowed themselves to be
bombarded without condescending to
reply with single shot.
They further took half an hours
bombardment this morning without an
exchange, when suddenly they belched
out stream of fire from all their en-
trenchments, beside opening fearful
cannonade with all their quick frers,
field and siege guns, which were posted
from end to end of their positions.
When their presence and actual posi-
tons had been determined the British
naval brigade commenced Smelling all
the ridges north of the town with mar
velous accuracy.
At this time the artillery attached to
Gen. Harris division was doing business
among the entertainments on the hills
on the British left under cover of the
Irish infantry brigade marched out in
extended order to cross the river and
attack.
Undoubtedly aiming at this battery,
the Beers sent several shells near the
ambulance train, which was forced to
change its position.
While this was transpiring the field
artillery on the right were busy attract
ing the attention of the Beers, who re-
taliated with a seathing fire, almost de-
moiishing all the guns and stampeding
the gun carriage and timber hoists.
