PUMP INSTALLED IN
GREAT WESTERN MINE
CRosSCUT, WHERE WATER FLOW
WAS ENCOUNTERED, is IN
WEST END RHYOliTE

Superintendent Magee has compile
ted the installation OF pump in the
Great Western mine and il will be put
in operation late this afternoon. The
shaft is 1850 feet deep and from the
bottom level crosscut was started
south toward the Ruby group. which
is now under the same management.
When sixty feet out a formation was
encountered Of West End rhyolite, ac-
companied by flow or water which
made it impossible TO operate by use
Of baler alone. hence a hurried trip
by Mr.. Magee to San Francisco TO Sc
cure pumps The formation encount-
cred is so favorable that more than
one mining engineer in the camp has
expressed his view that something will
happen of very interesting nature
before the crosscut IS driven much
farther.

AUSTRIA LOSES
$4,000 IN 4 DAYS

/ Zone. Nov. 4.-Twenty-five thous-
and Austrian soldiers were killed.
wounded or captured in the first four
days of General Cadorna's new sweep
on Trieste.
No offensive on the Austro-Italian
front since the beginning of the war
has been marked by such fierce fight
ing. Battling in the Carso mountain
lands, Italians and Austrians have
met in hand-to-hand struggles that
have continued at some places all
night.
An especially furious combat pre-
ceded the capture Of the Veliki hill
by the Italians. The summit was
crowned by heavy Austrian artillery
that drew a semi-circle OF fire against
the base of veliki and prevented Ca
dornas men from advancing in
frontal attacks.
Several small Italian detachments
under cover OF darkness reached the
slopes of Veliki outside this fire zone.
Without waiting for achievements
they scaled the sides, surprised the
enemy and, after brief encounter
with bayonets and daggers. captured
the Austrian battery. The victors
signalled news Of their success to
their waiting comrades below and
then turned the captured guns on the
Austrian trenches to the east.
In the fighting southeast Of Goritz
Italian infantry charged over a wide
area, which had been flooded by the
Vertaibilla yesterday, At some places
they advanced to the attack in water
waist deep, holding their rifles high
above their heads.
II Is estimated here that 10000
Austrlans are defending the Isonzo
lines now under attack by Cadorna.
Several Austrian battalions have been
practically wiped out.
