Chicago, Jan. 90.--A dispatch to
the Tribune from Washington says:
1t is now said that three important
bills, each representing a distinct ad-
ministration policy, are practically
dead for this session of congress. 1t
is hinted that in each case, behind the
killing of the bill, is to be traced per-
sonal antagonism to the president and
a desire to belittle and injure his ad-
ministration. This is only indirectly
true. The subsidy bill, the immigra-
ton bill and the Philippine tariff bill
are all moribund, but chiefly because
each contains provisions of a radical
character which have aroused the en-
nifty of powerful interests in various
parts of the country.

FOR TUNNEL
ENGLAND TO THE
!. CONTINENT
Seems Now to be Pretty Good
Railway VIII Run
Between
LONDON AND PARIS
UNDER THE CHANNEL

London, Jan. "A bill was de-
posted today to incorporate the
Channel Tunnel company and to au-
thorize the construction of works
which will form part of the scheme
intended to connect England and
France by means of railway under
the English Channel. Powers are
sought to execute such works up to
the three-mile limit, and il is pro-
posed that a new company shall here
after be registered for the purpose
of carrying out the entire project.
1t is estimated that the scheme will
involve a total outlay of $4,000. 900.
1t is intended to raise half of that
amount in this country and the re-
mainder is promised by France as
soon as the scheme shall have re-
ceived parliamentary sanction here
A limited liability company was reg
istered here today with a capital of
$40 900, 900. Two parallel tunnels
will be constructed, the total length
under the sea being twenty-four
miles. and with the land approaches
on either side, thirty miles. Careful
calculations show that in the first
year after the opening of the "Cald-
over Tube" as IL will be called; L.
100000 passengers will be conveyed
through the tunnels, and the gross
receipts from all sources of traffic in
the same period are put at $500, 900.
Liberal estimates made by French
and English engineers, fix the an
nual expenses at $4,000, 900 leaving a
net profit of s5,7OO,00O. When the
trunk line. now in the course of
construction through Greece, has
been completed, the opening of the
channel tunnel will shorten the mail
route to India by twenty-six hours,
and 1t will be possible to travel from
London to Shanghai without having
