He said;
We never expected to complete this great

lens. and big ones, too. but we have faced them
and are solving them. The real estate inter
ests on Long Island have been impatient at
what they thought was delay in the East River
work, but can assure them that we have been
doing as well as could reasonably have been
expected. We are making tests OF the freezing
process of tunnel construction but that does
not necessarily signify that are going to use
that process. We may use IL II IL is success
ful and we may not. We shall make tests
OF other methods OF construction and OF any
new discoveries that may tend 10 aid u.s. as nat
urally we would not boldly adopt some untried
scheme for 50 expensive a work
We may decide 10 bore two additional tunnels
under both the East and the North rivers as our
franchise and War Department permits allow,
but that has not yet been decided upon. II de-
pends, Of course upon what the outlook Is
toward the time of completion of the present
work; that is. if additional traffic will Justify
the new tunnels. i hope you will assure the
people of New York that the PENNSYLVANIA Rail-
road will play fair with all interests and will
complete this work as have stated.

able to this game as a main point
of difference between this sport and
the others. They do not seem to
realize that other popular sports in
troduce the element of danger also
and probably to as great a degree.
For instance, the figures collected
by the Brooklyn Citizen regarding the
number of baseball deaths in the east

cate that baseball, contrary to the
popular belief. is a far more danger.
Gus pastime than football.
Twelve baseball players were kill,

sides this number, a dozen or more
spectators were killed in falling of
roofs or by some similar accident.
This list is much larger than the

To BUY Up ALL
THE BULL DOCS
Americans Prepare to Form
One of Most Unique
Trusts on Record.

London, Nov. 3-The latest thing
in trusts, or combines, is that which
three Americans az present in London
have got in hand. Their intention is
10 buy up all bulldogs of the one
strain. that of the Stone" blood, or
family. which gave to the world the
best dog of its type, that named after
Sir Conan DOyle's novel, Rodney
Stone"
That dog was sold by Mr.. Walter
Jefries, of Denmark Hill, London. for
$4,000 to Richard Croker, and when
the dog died in America there be,
came quite a craze to buy up that
special strain of blood. The result is
thac the fancy over there will pay
any figure for a dog whose pedigree
ctn truthfully show an infusion or
splash Of the Stone" blood.
The London bulldog fanciers aver
that the Yankees will have to pay
dearly for what they are seeking.
English breeders know their value
full we'll Very few Stone" dogs
come on the market, for it is the most
favored strain in the fancy. The
Yankees will not get much change
out OF $500 cheque for any Stone
dog displaying anything of the reg
ularly accepted standard of quality.
