tance inside both countries instead of
near the coast as was originally in
tended, so as to avoid the risks Of a
fall of the cliffs, such as already has
occurred on the British side near the
point where the work would have been
begun.
SIN addition to tracks, the tunnel
will carry telephone and telegraph
wires, superseding the present sea-bed
cables, and also pneumatic tubes for
carrying letters and parcels. The
French and British railroads con.
cerned are willing to finance the
scheme, but the two governments wish
to exercise control of some sort OF
joint state finance.

The enemy at this period fired hun.
dreds of torpedoes, as German officers
have since stated, Admiral JellicOe con-
tinues, and although the Germans were
in the gravest peril, the position of the
grand feet itself was menaced by de-
termined torpedo attacks in thick
weather. But the British feet by turn

the action, the admiral says, got clear
of the torpedoes, which were racing
toward the British ships, and defeated
the tactics upon which the Germans
based their hopes.
+ After estimating the relative strength
of the two fleets early in the war, Ad-
miral Jellicoe expresses surprise that
the Germans were so cautious and
says:
''If this country in the future de-
cided to rely for safety against raids
or invasion on the fleet alone, it is
essential that we possess a consider
Rbly greater margin of superiority over
a possible enemy in all classes of yes
sells than we did in August, 1914"

London-Five years would be re-

England to France, according to an
authoritative estimate. 1t is said that
in ordinary times the cost of the

in view of the increased cost of labor

would, under present conditions. be
nearly $100O00,00O.

Admiral Jellicoe says he knew that

while the German fleet in the battle
of Jutland was far better off in the
number of destroyers. In addition, the
Germans possessed "a most efficient
