ARGUES AGAINST BRIDGES.

THE BUILDING OF TUNNELS.

The Tribunes persistent fight for the con-
struction of tunnels under. instead of bridges
over, the East River meets with the indorse-
ment of some of the best informed of the en-
gineering fraternity. The current issue Of 'The
Engineering News" devotes nearly two pages
the folly of expending more of the city's
money in expensive bridges. The Engineering
News says in part.
The effort made some three years ago to secure
the substitution of more tunnels in place of
the third suspension bridge under construction
across the East River. has been renewed by a
portion of the newspaper press Of York City
While confess to but slight hopes that this
reopening of old controversy will accomplish
any radical alteration in the present plans. il is
so entirely justified by the circumstances as to
demand more than the merely passing notice that
would otherwise be its due. Indeed. unwar-
ranted is the expenditure of upward Of $2Oo0coo at
the present time to construct this bridge as to
make one hope against hope that the work already
done may be abandoned. even though N.WN0F0, more
or less, has already been spent 1t is never wise

Continuing, the writer points out that 81 .000.-
