THE GIBRALTAR TUNNEL.
Obstacles to BE Met in Constructing
the Proposed Work.

The State Department has received re-
port conveying further information as to
the proposed tunnel from Europe to Africa
under the Strait of Gibraltar. from Mr.
George H. Murphy, consular clerk at Mag
deburg. Germany. Mr. Berlier the French
engineer who has submitted the proposal of
this project to the governments of Spain and
Morocco, is said to have perfect confidence
in the feasibility of the plan, holding that
it presents no greater obstacles than were
encountered in the building of the tunnels
at Mont Gents, st. Gotthard and Arlberg
Or the other hand, Mr.. Murphy states that
the ventilation of a submarine tunnel and
removal of the constantly accommodating
water are very formidable and expensive
obstacles to be dealt with. Never. heless,
Mr.. Beriier believes that by secret pro-
OF his own he can grappe with these
difficulties, and keep the cost of the work
at a figure not exceeding that required in
the enterprises at St. Gotthard and Ar-
berg, Simplon. By working simultane-
ously from both ends of the tunnel he be-
lieyes the date Of completion could be safe
ly placed at 1907.
The proposed length of the tunnel is twen-
ty-five miles. twenty miles Of this under
