To- The Hudson River Tunnel between

begun three years ago and interrupted
by litigation, has been cleared Of embar.'
rassments; and work is to be resumed
about. the first of next month. The
scheme was projected in 1873 by, 9; num-
Der of California capitalists, as the result
Of vexation atsa delay in Jersey City
from an icel embargo; a stock company
with $4,000, 1000 0lcapital was formed, >, and
work was begun at once. lnjunctlons
we're soon served by the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western railroad and the
Hoboken lands and improvement comps-
nv, but. these membranes. have been
removed after expensive litigation. The
work is, to- be begun on the New jersey.
shore; where a shaft So feet deep is to be
sunk, and the tunnel then pushed out
into the river The workmen are to be
followed as they advance by massive
wooden plug, and air is to be supplied by
an engine above, the current also whisk-
ing out the disengaged earth through 9
pipe. The tunnel will be about two miles
long, 26 feet wide and "a high, construc.
ted of the best brick and cement, and will
be.about 10 feet below the rivers bed,
Work is to be carried on at both ends at
once, the two parties meeting in the cen:
ire, and about 800 fnen will be employed
when the work is fairly under headway.
The railroad through the tunnel will con,
meet with all the railroads terminating in
Jersey City and Hoboken there will be
a double track, and the tunnel will be
lighted with gas: The undertaking will
be,completed in about three years, and
the company intend, if profits are en-
eouragings to continue the tunnel under
