BEHRING Tunnel.

Another great enterprise that had
its birth in the mind of some pro-
moter of no ordinary caliber has
been stalled for q while. The Rus-
sian cabinet the dispatches say, has
rejected proposal by an American
syndicate for the construction or
tunnel under Behring straits. the
conditions of the proposal are not e%-
planned. although they are presumed
to embody certain concessions from
the Russian government that would
have meant much for the promoters,
and would have given them a stand
inc that would have enabled them
to have procured certain amount
of funds for the fou' lation OF the
enterprise; for it is no miniature per-
Torrance that they had IN view. The

commercial, when il was announced
that the Russian government regard
ed the scheme fayorably. II Will be
years and years yet before line

across to Siberia can be made to pay,
