GERMANS FORCED
BM!5 MILES
British Reinforcements Ar
rive in Time to Save Allied
Position After Five
Critcial Days.
London. OcL 27, 4:50 a. m. Tele
graphing about thr fighting in Bel
gium, the correspondent of tho Times
in northern Franco says:
"The enemy's most furious attack
along the line of the Ysor was at
Yprce, where a quarter of a million
Germans, for five crltleal days, were
held back by tho British fore
"The artillery fire against the Brit
ishers in the tranches was terrible
churning up the earth and often bury
Ing the men by the dozens. Repeat
edly the enemy's infantry advanced
to within a few hundred yards hut
every time our men leaped from the
trenches and went at them with their
bn.vonets The Germans fled, firing
their rifles over their shoulders as
they ran.
'Many hundreds were captured and
thousands wore killed and wounded.
Still their shrapnel rained into the
British trenches and fresh Infantry
took thp places of Germans who had
been decimated.
"The situation grew more and more
critical and it seemed that the Brit
ish were likely to be borne down hv
pheer weight of numbers Still they
held on. Friday came at last and
with it needed reinforcements. Th---position
was saved and the Germans
fell back fifteen miles."

OPENS 01 H 1
Salt Lake, Oct. 27. One of the big
gest pieces of railroad construction
undf-r way In Utah this year, the Utah
railroad, will be completed about No
vember 1 and will be put into oiera
tlon immediately thereafter. The
road extends from Panther Junction,
one and a half miles east of Casti
gate to Mohrland, Black Hawk and
Hiawatha, and was built to serve the
coal mines in that district. When
completed il will represent an ex
penditure of more than t:?,'m)0.000.
The road will be operated by the Den
ver & Rio Grande company, says
the Salt Lake Tribune
The length of the road in the mining
district is about twenty-one miles. Ow
ing to the roughness of the country,
unusual difficulties were encountered
In the construction of the line, which
accounts for the heavy cost per mile
It is salrl to represent one of th
biggest engineering feats ever at
tempted in Utah.
One of the distinct features of the
road, both from an engineering and
an operating standpoint. Is grade,
which is 2 per cent or less all the
way from Panther .Junction to the
mines and down grade all the way
back f This will enable one of the
heavier engines to take about sixty
empties to the mines and bring as
many loads back, or as many as can
be hauled with safety From an
operating standpoint this is an ideal
condition, and from an engineering
standpoint it is a remarkable feat, ac
complished under great difficulties.
Use Mallett Engines.
The Denver & Rio Grande company
wlU put Mallett engines, the heavi
est in service on the branch. The
mines which the road will sene have
been equipped with the latest Im
provements to increase the output,
which is estimated at approximately
150 cars per day.
The Consolidated Fuel companv at
Black Hawk has erected what is said
to be the largest steel tipple in tho
west, built new terminals and yards,
increased tho water supply, built a
large number of new cottages for tho
miners and opened a new mine on the
old Castlegate vein at Panther The
Independent Coal & Coke company al
so has erected a new steel tipple with
a capacity of 3000 tons daily. On
the Cameron property, recently pur
chased by the Browning Interests, are
being installed new boilers, new fans
and electric motors. According to
experts who are familiar with min
ing conditions throughout the coun
try, the mines of Utah aro today
among the most up-to-date in the Uni
ted States.
The Utah railroad was built chiefly
to relieve the traffic on the South
ern Utah, running from Price into the
mining territory. When the South
ern Utah was constructed several
years ago it served the district satl5-

Into service the Southern Utah will
be abandoned practically, so far as
serving the coal mines is concerned
The passenger service and local mer
chandiso service will be maintained
Flrt Plan Abandoned.
Under the original plrms of the
Utah railroad, the line was to be built
into Salt Lake, paralleling the Den-
vm JCV Rln rjrnnrlr, Tlnn-oi or thp
idea was abandoned owing to the
heavy expense involved In construct
ing a line over the Wasatch moun
tain range and a satisfactory agree
ment was arranged between tho Utah
company and the Denver & Bio
Grande company Under the agree
I nient the Utah railroad will be turned
over to the Denver & Rio Grande
for operation.
With the additional facilities of
getting coal from tho mines and the
double track extending from Helper
to Provo, the officials of the Denver
& Rio Grande feel that they will be
able to furnish the empties and han
dle tho coal as rapidly as may be
necessary for several years to come.
It has been pointed out that the
coal in Carbon county forms one of
the biggest assets of the state. Ac
cording to figures that have been
compiled, it is said that for every
ton of coal sent out of the state S3
has been expended for material and
labor in Utah At this time, it is
said, the annual revenue derived In
this manner aggregates more than
(9,000,000, which, according to esti
mates, will more than double within
the next few years.
