BORING THE ALPS.
Swiss and Italian Workmsn Meet
 In the Work.

Condo, Switzerland, Feb 24.-Pierc. ing of the Simplon tunnel through the Alps was completed at 7:2O o'clock this morning. The work was commenced in 1898.
 The meeting of the two boring par, ties, Swiss and Italian, was signalled throughout Switzerland by ringing of church bells and salutes by cannon.
 Many unexpected obstacles were en- countered, the most serious being hot springs which threatened to wreck the whole enterprise, and a temperature which at one time rose to 131 degrees Fahrenheit, making a continuance of the work impossible until the engineers found means of cooling the atmos- phere.
 Now that the borers have met it will enable the water accumulated in the north gallery to be drawn off.
 The work of preparing the tunne. for permanent way will be pushed as rapidly as possible, and it is hoped to inaugurate the tunnel about March 20.
 The length of the SimplOn tunnel from Briga. in Switzerland, to Iselle, on the Italian side of the mountain, is about twelve miles. Work was begun over seven years ago. A very hard formation of rock was encountered at the outset on the Iselle side. After the boring had been pushed about two miles powerful cold springs were met, from which poured more than 300 gal Ions of water minute ana for time caused a suspension of all work on the Italian side. Hardly had this difficulty been overcome when about 200 feet further on a stratum of shifting mater ial was encountered and the further t',nneling of about 150 feet required six months time and an expenditur., of over S1OO.OOO.
 The greatest difficulty encountered was last September when hot water began to pour into the tunnel and caused a further suspension of work for several months
 On the Swiss or northern side there exists an accumulation of water which was expected to precipitate to the Tt"li"n side so soon as the two squads of workmen meet under the mountain and the greatest precautions have been ."'-en '" nrnvent catastrophe. The construction company has contracted to have the tunnel ready for traffic op May 15. under a heavy penalty. but owing to the unexpected difficulties encountered it is not likely should tho contract he broken that the penalty --ii he enforced hv the Swiss and Italian governments. who have iointiv financed the undertaking. share and s'--e aIite at the cost of S15.onnOOO
