Herald's Paris correspondent gives the ioi'
lowing interesting account of project to
transmit the mail:
"The plan to connect Paris and London
with pneumatic tubes has been reported la
yorably by FIeuch engineers and submitted
to the Government. 1t is proposed that Two
nn.umatic tubes be laid following the line
of the Northern Railway from Paris TO
Calais, thence across the channel to lover,
and following the line of the Southeastern
railway to London. Letters could be- thus
transmitted between the two capitals 10 one
hour. Wagonettes like those now used 10
transport kilograms from Paris are to be
used, weighing ten kilogrammes about
twenty-five pounds avordupois) and capa-
bic of carrying i've kilogrammes about
eleven pounds avoirdupois) weight OF mail
matter. Twenty pneumatic trains are 20
be started every hour. The cost 10 estimated
to be 100000. The total distance ID 40
kilometres"
Think Of it'll Letters transmitted from
one point TO another at the rate OF about
276 miles an hour! The fast mail" when
brings US the New York morning papers be-
fore our average dinner time, is proJect
that marks long stride forward IN the way
of progress. Yet through these pneumatic
tubes letters will fly TO their destination IN
less than an eighth Of the time required oy
