ANOTHER CUTOFF FOR S. P.
VIII Build Shorter Line Between
Wabuska and Hazen.

The Southern Pacific railroad has de-
Cided to build a cutoff, twenty-seven
miles in length, from a point eight
miles north of Wabuska 10 Hazen,
seven miles east of Reno, New. Tie
new road will save the long haul up
the grade to Mound House. and con-
siderably shorten the route to this
city.
The only point now to be decided is
whether the road from Hazen to Wa
buska shall be narrow. OF standard.
In the former case the Western Ore
Purchasing company viii build a big
sampling plant at Hazen. but If the
standard gauge is continued to the
WabuSka end the sampler would be
installed there and this latter plan
you'd enable the smelters TO handle
the immense tonnage of low grade cop
per ores blocked out at ~YeringtOn
which, however, cannot stand the cost
of reshipment- II is probable that
work on the cutoff viii be commenced
within sixty days

RUSSIAN COMMANDER STRUCK
BY PIECE OF JAP SHELL
IN HAlcHENG FIGHT.
Mukden, Aug. 2.-It is reported that
Lieutenant General Count Keller has
been killed east of Liaoyang.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 2.-The report
death is confirmed. He was killed
July 20 while resisting the preliminary
attack of General Kuroki's army on
the Yangse pass, thirty miles east of
Liaoyang. The general was standing
near battery, which was subjected
to terrific fire, ien shell burst
close to him and he fell, mortally
wounded, dying twenty minutes later.
Before he expired General Keller had
the satisfaction of knowing that the
Japanese attack had been repelled.
Lieutenant General Count Keller, at
the opening of the war, was in COM
mand of the Second Siberian army
division. He was ffty-four years old
and resigned the governorship of Eka-
terinoslaff in order to go to the front.
General Keller took part in the three
campaigns of the Russo-Turkish war.
In 1887 he commanded the Imperial
Rifle regiment and later was director
of the corps of imperial pages, by
which Keller came in contact with the
members of the imperial family, with
whom he was in great favor. General
Keller was considered to be the pos
SCISSOR of cool Judgment and to be
fine strategist. Though strict discip-
linarian Keller was a kind and careful
officer and popular with his men, He
sustained two reverses at the hands
of the Japanese recently, July and
