cHIcAGo'S SIDEWAYS.
The Busy Underground World of the
Wesfern Mefronolis.

n
The stranger visiting Chicago has no
idea of the immense amount of traffic
that is being carried on beneath his feet.
As a matter of fact that enterprising
western metropolis has developed a vast
underground system so quietly that many
of her own residents are unaware of its
great extent. This compares quite favor
ably with New York's method of sub
way construction, where the people liter
ally "tumbled'' to the work by falling
down the gaping chasms in the streets
being operated upon or else were made
aware of it by dynamite-hurled messages
from the rending rocks. Without noise,
dirt, smoke or the slightest delay to
traffic, the central business district of
Chicago has been honeycombed with
these tunnels. Twenty-eight miles al
ready have been constructed, and extern
sions are projected.
To the visitor, Chicago's principal
streets might seem as much congested
with traffic as ever and yet, far below
thelr surface, scores of electric locomo-
tlyes are pulling freight trains that are
taking thousandS of tons of coal into the
boiler rooms of skyscrapers, without dirt.

Tor the excavations from the Easements
OF buildings in course of construction.
More tnan this, they are hauling daily
many thousands OIL tons of freight which
was formerly carried over the pavements
in wagons.
Think of the relief this must afford,
But that is not all. There is another way
in which the tunnel system will be used
to materially advance Chicagos interests.
On Feb. 10, 1905, the company entered
into a contract with the government I'M
der which all of Chicago's second, third
and fourth-class mail matter will be
transferred from the railway stations to
the new postoffice through the tunnels.
A further plan to utilize the tunnel for
mail purposes involves the building of
chutes connecting the street corner mail
boxes with boxes in the tunnel, where
the mail can be collected by cars.
When the new schemes are perfected
and added to the present pneumatic tube
service for frst-class mail, Chicago will
have the most perfect underground mail
facilities in the world. Through the tun-
nels 500 tons of mail will be handled
daily, in special locked United States
cars. The system will be in operation
by June 1.
