The Tunnel from France TO Eng.
land.

Such has been the progress OF engineering
science that thorough ventilation, either during
construction or for the permanent submarine
railway, has not been considered by either Eng
l1sh or French engineers as presenting any In
superable difficulty. Mr. HaweS the original
protector, Is even sanguine as to the ultimate
SUCCESS OF this channel tunnel as financial
operation. 1t Is first OF all proposed TO make
shafts and carry preliminary driftWays on
small scale, to such distance under the sea as
would decide the practicabllity Of the enter
prise on a larger scale. These preliminary
works he estimates at f16O,0 and he observes
that the estimate for the tunnel itself is ten
millions. On this point we cannot do better
than quote the words OF the protector of the
plan himself, given In Mr. HaWeS' pamphlet:
with regard to this project 1t might be well
to state that the cost, which had been put at
ten millions, for the construction of the rail-
way beneath the channel, though 1t appeared a
large sum, really embraced about ten miles OF
railway On each side. In order to get to the
tunnel, the railway would have to be COM
menced In the town OF Dover, where a very
large station would have to be made and run
from point point along the coast till it turned
down near the South FoIeland. When 1t
emerged on the other side on the French coast
several miles OF railway would also have to be
line, so as to be able to get to Paris and Bel
GUM. In fact. the capital OF ten millions would
be Tor about thirty-one miles OF railway In all
That would make the railway cost 4e3OO 600 per
mile, about third the cost Of the MeJrOpolI.
tan Railway, and about cne-SlXth the cost of
the railway from Charing Cross to Cannon
street and London Bridge which he had himself
constructed, SO that 1t was not so formidable as
1t at lirst sight appeared. Words.
