Miles in st. doe Country.
WALLACE. Idaho. Feb. s4.-That
it will take 81. 900 goo feet OF tunnel
and bridge timbers for 20 miles OF
the Chicago, Milwaukee q st. Paul
railroad from the west portal OF the
big tunnel to the main ST. Joe river
was learned today from A. e. Doug
las, superintendent OF the sawmill OF
the Flewelling Lumber company
which has 1000, 00O-foot contract
with the Milwaukee. The sawmiII
Is located two miles from the west
portal of the tunnel and is saving
10000 feet Of bridge and tunnel tim.
Der day, though the full capacity
OF the plant is $4,000 feet day.
The Milwaukee really expected us
to furnish more OF the timber, but
on account OF getting the plant
started little late 1t was found nee
essary to ship a larger per cent from
the coast. twenty-five four-horse
teams are hauling timber in from
Taft. We are furnishing nothing but
bridge and tunnel timber for the road
from the west portal OF the tunnel to
the main st. Joe, and should Judge
that we shall supply about 80 per
cent of what is required.
The great amount OF timber re-
quired for this stretch OF road is
caused by the number OF bends to get
a good grade. The west portal Of
the tunnel Is 500 feet above the main
st. Joe. The distance by an air line
to the main st. Joe Is about eight
miles, but by railroad 1t will be about
20 miles. In one loop, which is four
miles long, there are ii tunnels. as
well as several trestles. Tunnels win
be all timbered, save where the solid
rock is struck.
II understand they have struck
solid rock on both ends OF the big
tunnel. The Idaho end Is In 100
feet and the Montana end is In 1900
and progress Of about 40 feet day
Is being made, on the two ends COM
bined The best progress Is being
made on the Idaho side. Two and
half hour shifts are being kept con-
stantly az work. II is the intention
of the engineers to have the track all
laid up to the tunnel on both sides
by the time the big bore is completed.
Good progress has been made on the
grading in spite OF the winter wealth
er and deep snow. There Is seven
feet of snow in the valleys and II
feet on the SUBMITS"

RISE NECESSARY
 TO MOVE FLEET
Government Work Being Delayed On River Front Because Fleet Oi Gov ernment Boats Cannot FlOat Over Sandbar at Rob Roy.

Owing to the fact that the govern ment fleet of ten boats is unable to come any closer to Pine Bluff than Rob Roy until rise comes down the Arkansas river and aids the boats to float, the weakened river bank along the river front here is con- pletely at the mercy of the treacher ous Arkansas river. Reports from Rob Roy state that the low water prevents movement of the fleet. It was com pelled to Hay up" at Rob Roy. while on it's way to this city from White river, to begin the work of building new revetments and dykes at this place. A large sandbar in the mid dle of the Arkansas river at Rob Roy makes it impossible forathe~ten gov ernment boats to pass up the Arr kansassvfver to Pine Bluff. The fleet is esM charge of Captain Albro.
