12 BIG TUNNELING. Dr. Hayes’ Explanation of the Bill Now Ponding Beforo the New York Legislature. “All the Trunic Railroads to Con- i contrato in Now York City. Extraordinary Commercial Advantages Expooted fromthe Under- z taking, New York Meratd, March 24. Areporter of the Herald called upon Dr. I. I. Hoges, member of the Assembly, yesterday, to obtain some Information in regard to the Tun- nel bill now pending before the Legislature, and the prbyistons of which authorize the constrite- tion of tunnels under cities nnd villages of the Brato for railroad purposes. ‘qe PURPORT OF THE TUNNEL BIT. Reporter—In the first place, Doctor, allow me to nsk you whether you think the Tunnel bill as presented in the Zerald of Saturday morning will pass and become a law? Dr. Hayce—The bil to which you refer ras introduced by me Into the Assembly some weeks ago, and, after having heen duly considered in the Committeo on Citles, was favorably report- ed to the Assembly, where It is now on gen- eral orders, and will probably be reached dur- ing the week, I think it will pass and become a law. “Has the bill any special reference to Now York City?” “Jt is general in ite provisions,—as much 80 as tho general Railway nct. Jt provides for tunneling under cities and villages of the State for raitroad purposes, but, naturally enough, its chief bearing will be upon New York Clty.” “T understand it fs proposed totuunel the Aludgon Hiver, and a tunnel, therefore, under New York would be of no uso unless the river tunnel was made." “It fs proposed,’ said Dr. Iayes, “to tunnel the North River at some convenlent point from the Jersey shore and ta enter New York at point as nearly opposite as possible; lut with the details of such n tunnel [ have no concer. Thave taken pains, however, to Inquire fully us to the practicability of such a project. and have no doubt whatever that [t is entirely feasible, "The bed of the river, Tam informed by compe- vent engineers, is composed of such material that a tunnel can enaily Ye duc tventy feet he- Jow its bed with comparatively littte cost, and van be made perfectly secure and water-tieht, That you can tunnel beneath the city needs no argument to prove, [Having satisfied myself on these pointe, I have simply gone abut pre- parlng a bil that will give anybody, any com road, or railroad corporation, buviny ie essary meaus, the right to avail themselves. of the oprivilega of entering. New York under the tudeon River or the Harlem, or from any point where a tunnel can be made, ‘Thatis all L hays to do with the matter. I believe it to ben creat scheme in the interest of the commerce of New York, und if availed of wil redound greatly to the beveflt of the State. Icnow of nothing which could conduco so greatly te the com: | merce of the metropolis of the country, and if {shall not succecd in passing it this your somo one else is suretodo ft notlong hence. And in this connection I woutd like to observa that £ have alav pending before the Levisiature ane other chemo scarcely Jess tinportant than this, —n measure which I introduced into the Legis- Jature last -year, Lmean the project of free canals, which, to accomplish, requires an amend- ment so the Constitution. With these two en- couragements to commerce New York wouhl andecd be not alone the metropolls of America, ‘but the greatest trading mart of all the world.” TUB GREAT RAWAVAY TERMINI. “You haye, spoken,. Doctor, of the great ad- vantage this tunnel would be to the city; let me ask you to specify more particularly?” “The great trouble nnd confplaint coneerning New York,’? sald the Doctor, {8 In her termi nal facilities. The great railroads which centre fn or about Jersey City are obliged there to de- liver the vast quantities of frelght which wa brought by them to the seaboard from the g West, and to receive thelr return cargoes. ‘The enormous expenso of dellyery to wud from th ec shipping ov the East and North Rivers {3 a great drawback. - It {s necessarily douc by boats or lighters at great expense, and, In the distribu- tloa of cominoditles upon Manhattan Island from the whoryes und piers, besides Lhe water trausportation ubout the harbor, is a eerlous ex- pense,’? EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED CHANTS, “This would, you think, be obviated by the tunnel? “Ta a great mensure, yes. Ifa tunnel should be constructed under the river und a tunding nade underground in the Jower purt of the city, somewliere above Canal street, then the Delay waro & Lackawanna Railroad, the Eric, the Midland, the = Pennaylvanin . Central, the New Jersey Central, and other lines woultt enter it and deliver thelr freight and pussen- Fers at a convenient point of distribution without any of the cost and hindrances of water- transportation, and thelr joiut grand depot would be grand indeed. And, more than thls, my bill provides, iu the Jatter part of tha frst rection, that any road—as, for Jnatanee, the New York Central, which delivers its freleht at the jmmense depot tn St. dohn’s Park—may unlta with ft. Were. this done, steam surface railroads in the city, with all thelr annoyances und lake, would bo at an end. "The eurface- tracks of the Central Road down Hudson street, on the-west aide of the city, would be sunk, the freight would be received ‘ut St. John’s Park Depot under ground, and a tunnel connect: fui that depot with the grand depot of the other ronds would unito the railways of the State in a complete clreuit. Should thfs project be earrled out the city would, Iu course of tlme, ve tune acled through to the Eust River, and another grand depot of the Central and other roads would be forined there, and that ornamental, costly, and useless structure called the Eust River Bridge would rery eoun be stipntanted by a tunnel that wonld aircetly connect Brooklyn, by rall, with the great West." rnd ig, indeed, a grand project. Do you really think It practicablet? “Most assuredly, It is but a question of moncy and engineering skill, That there aro nu ingurmotutable obstacles in the way, so tar as cngineerin is concerned, ts proves hy mumer- ous experlnents inother countries, No diMculty has been found {n tunneling the Thames. ‘The Alps ond thy Hoosac Mountaim bave heen bored through, aud the only question ta, WH It pay!

March 23.—For years past the ‘Town of Kingston has heen at the merey of a horde of Democratle olllceholdera of Ue lows eat type, and the arininistration of its affairs fins beens bright and sbinimy example of the average Democratic rule. The town has stinply been plumlered in the most outrageous manner, The population of Kingston ts not much over 4,000. A good portion of this population is made up of quarrymen unt thelr families, who ace employed in the various Minestono and cement rock quarries in this neighborhood, Thesu quarrymen are all forelgnora, und most, of them low-grade specimens of the ignorant, quarrelsonte, whisky-loving, and whisky-drink- ing class of Irisnmen, “Stony Hollow! and “Jockey Hi” are two well-known tocalitics where these men congregate, aud where AUENES OF VIOLRNCE ara not uncommon, “Stony Hollow” mado for itself n reputation in the Presidential cam- paign of 1978. A handful of bold Republicans, comprising nearly. every respectable man in the region, had the temerity to organize and attempt to maintain a Repuolican campaign club in “Stony Ttollow.? ‘Their action was allowed to pass with nothing more than sullen looks anda few angry words at firet from the Fonlority, Hut the Repiblicans grew bolder as election-day drew near, und Sally they resolved to haye a politcal wings-meeting. and ratse “Hayes ant Wheeler” banner, ‘This was the straw that broke the Democratic camel's back. It was adding insult to injury, in the opinion of the “forelen clement,” thus to flaunt the names of the standard-ocarers of the hated principles of Republicanism in their very faces, “Stony Hohtow" was a stronghold of Democracy, Such athing as ralsing an opposition bauer must not be done, AND IT Was NOT. The Republicans gathered for thefr mocting. They were met byw mab, who hooted, yelled, and cursed tke demons. When the speaking bovan, a burly Irishman stepped moon the plat- form and began to rlug a cow-bell. ‘The yells, shouts, curses, and sereeches drowned the spenker’s voice. The Democrats had possession of the meeting. Some of the stout-hearted Republicans attempted to defen themselves. Instantly revol were drawn, and the bloody felt which made “Stony Hollow”? famous fol- Jowed, ‘The Democratie ruffians, Alted with bad whisky, showed no teres. ‘Thelr wives, for: getting their womanhood, fAlled thelr aprons with stones and hurled them at the Httle band of atrngeliig men, The battle was soon ovet.

Then, while the Texas Pacific {s spending its timo in trying to badger Congress into a sub- aldy, the California Central {s pushing on its Southern Rond at the rate of ¢ A MILE A DAY. z reaching now 100 miles enst of Fort Yuma, The Sunset Route will run on to:nect this at Et Paso, thus making. direct aud real Southern Pacilie, striking at Now Orleans. ‘Then, 1 fel- low-passenger, Mr. W.
