shown on the map above in shaded patches
along the line of the southern viaduct.
Entering Tunnel From South.
AS stated above, the tracks entering the
tunnel from the south will leave the main
southwestern viaduct at I'd street and Vir-
ginia avenue. Curving to the northeast
they will be constructed along an embank-
ment on property purchased by the rail-
roads to LIST street southwest, which will be
crossed on trestle. In the next block
there will be another embankment on
property owned by the companies, and
Canal street will also be crossed on
trestle. Then will begin a rapid descent to
reach the mouth of the tunnel. which is
to be located just south Of D street and
west of New Jersey avenue. Continuing to
curve. the tunnel will run into LIST street
east and continue under that street to the
depot site.
From the point of its beginning, at D
street and New Jersey avenue, to the de-
pot the tunnel will be about 1890 feet in
length. or, approximately, three-quarters Of
a mile.
The style Of construction, as shown by
mel, or two single-track tunnels, separated
from but running parallel to each other.
The tunnel tracks will enter the union sta
ton twenty feet below the level of the
main track platform. To bring trains on
these lower tracks up to the level Of those
on the viaduct will require grade from the
union station to K street north.
AS these tracks for the through trains
must go over H street, according to the
law and the plans, it is said 1t will be
necessary to cut down that thoroughfare

which is the loweF--ef the three bridges
spanning the Potomac. The new Long
bridge. belonging to the Pennsylvania rail-
road. is now nearing. completion, 1t may be
said. while the highway bridge. which is to
be constructed by the government, is yet
to be contracted for.
The heavy lines on the map indicate the
roads that are to remain or will be built
under the new arrangement. The tracks
in the southwest section of the city are all
to be elevated. Fronlthe Long bridge to
I'd street southwest these tracks will be
used for the passenger trains from the
south. At I'd street Is seen the branch to
the northeast which will lead into the
tunnel under Capitol Fill. The mouth of
this tunnel is just south Of D street and
west Of New Jersey Avenue. Trains enter

by Benning and through the Navy Yard
tunnel. just as all Pennsylvania trains do
now. Upon leaving, the Navy Yard tun-
mel, the tracks will at once. begin to as
cend a grade leading to the viaduct. The
Pennsylvania and cooperating companies
have bought in much additional land in the
southwest for increasing the freight-han-
ding facilities. The locations of the various
freight depots or distributing places are

some eight or nine feet. It was thought at
first that the depression of H street would
only be a few feet at the eastern end of the
viaduct on account of the natural rise in
grade Of the thorOughfare toward the east.
Union Passenger Station.
The location and extent of the union pas
senger station is very plainly shown. Some
idea of the immensely Of this proposed de-
pot may be had by comparing the space it
will cover with the territory shown to be
occupied by the United States Capitol. The
station will have a frontage equal to that
of the Capitol. with length the proportion
Of which is easily to be seen.
Continuing to the northeast, the plan
shows where the various lines are to
branch off. 1t gives the location of the new
Baltimore and Ohio freight terminals in
the plot between Florida avenue on the
south, r street on the north. lexington
place on the west and the present Metro
politan branch on the east. There has been
more and Ohio proposed to extend its
freight terminals as far north as r street.
The map indicates that such is to be the
case. 1t Is intimated that additional land
north Of street and east of Sd street may
also be secured by the company.
The location of the new roundhouse and
the passenger car yards is shown on this
map for the first time.
The Union Station.
Mr.. D. H. Durham of Chicago, a mem
Der of the Senate park commission and
architect for the Pennsylvania railroad, is
now busily engaged in preparing the plans
for the union station. 1t Is expected he

will follow quite closely the preliminary
sketches which were shown to the COM
mittees Of Congress when the matter was
under consideration The front Of the sta
ton Is to be divided into three sections.
The grand public entrance will be in the
center. A second public entrance will be
at the left or western end, and the third
entrance, to be known as the executive
entrance" will be at the right, or east
end. This latter entrance. will lead into
suite of rooms designed for the use OF
the President and his party in leaving
the city or arriving. The entrance will
also be used for distinguished visitors.
The need Of such an arrangement in the
national capital was emphasized on the
occasion OF the visit Of Prince Henry sew.
eral months ago.
There has been a good deal Of current
gossip to the effect that the proposed
frontage of more than TOO feet originally
planned for the station would be cut down
to something over 600 feet. The latest
however, do not show any reduction in this
frontage. The present plans call for twenty
two tracks in the main train shed and
six depressed tracks coming from the tun-
mel. making twenty-eight in all. The
ground lines show the train shed to be
somewhat narrower than the station front.
A new street Is to be opened along the
western side Of the terminal station The
Pennsylvania company will build a private
thoroughfare on its own land along tho
eastern side. The station will front on
a plaza, which Is to be constructed at the
cost of the District. Several new streets

give more convenient access to the statioA

senger depot on Massachusetts, avenue just
east Of North Capitol street This map will
be of special interest to all who have fol-
lowed the legislation and who may be con-
cerned in the changed order of things
wrought by the great work about to be I'M
dertaken. The map was prepared for the
use and information of the District Com
missioners and shows at a glance just what
is contemplated under the terms of the new
law. 1t also illustrates forcibly the magni-
tude Of the project upon which the Pennsyl-
vania and the Baltimore and Ohio systems
have entered. From one side of the District
to the other the railroad lines are to be re-
built. When all the work now planned is
completed, the trackage arrangements and
depot facilities in the national capital will
be the best that the foremost engineering
thought and the most lavish expenditure of
money can assure to any community.
The conditions to be met in the District
and the city proper regarding the elimina-
ton of the deadly grade crossings and the
bringing together of the two main systems
entering Washington have been somewhat
complex and difficult, but all obstacles have
apparently been overcome and an arrange
ment reached that is practically satisfac
tory to every one.
Expense to the District.
The taxpayers of the District of Columbia
are to share to the extent of a million and
half dollars the cost of the railroad i'm
provements The last Congress did not ap-
propriate any moneys for the purpose of
meeting this expense. however, but the
