ANNOUNCED THAT THE
"BOYER" CUTOFF IS
TO BE BUILT.

A special correspondent of the
Engineering and mining Journal
says
1T is automatically announced
that the Southern Pacific is consid
ering CUTOFF extending through
the Wonder and Boyer camps in Ne
vada and across the Osopp valley
salt fields. This line will extend
from Battle Mountain to Hazen in a
direct line and will cut out the great
curve in the Humboldt river, saw
ing 493 miles across the State of
Nevada. The line can be built for
$7,00U,000 and is important in con-
nection with the reduction of costs
on the transcontinental traffic over
the Southern Pacific trunk line to
such an extent that the cost will be
repaid in eight years. The original
survey was made by John T. Reid,
the Mining engineer of Lovelock, Ne
vada, and was transferred to the
Southern Pacific interests, some
months ago. 1t is expected that
decision in regard to this cutoff
will be made soon. 1t is of import
anoe to several mining camps in Ne
vada, particularly the operotions OF
Wonder and at Boyer.
