GIGANTIC PLANS
FOR NEW TUNNEL
TO CONNECT ENGLAND ,,ANP
FRANCE DY RAIL
Channel Tunnel Will Enable Trains,
to Run From London to Bombay'
and Cape Town.
The Construction of the Channel
tunnel,' says the London Daily Mail,
will, with the exception of the Pan-.
ama Canal, be the most stupendous
engineering enterprise yet planned.
The total length, including the
a
p-
proaches in England andTralce, will
be thirty .miles, of which rather more
than twenty-one and a half miles will
be under the sea.
The first work was done on the
tunnel in 1874 when a French Com-
pany sank an experimental shaft in
France. In 1881 the South -Eastern
Railway Company's chairman, Sir E.
Watkin, obtained an act permitting -
him to sink a shaft on the English
side. A boring was driven for 2,015
yards toward the Channel, when In.
1882 the construction was stopped by
the government. Since then the
scheme has been in abeyance, but in
1913 the government called for re
ports from naval and military author-
ities with a view . to permitting the
construction -if they were favorable.
Then the war came and nothing more:
could be done.
Worked By Electricity.
The present plans provide for the.
building of two tunnels, each eighteen
feet in diameter, connected by cross
galleries at intervals of 200 yards.
The lines would be worked by elec-
tricity as in the case of the Simplon
tunnel, which is twelve and a hall
miles long, and at present the longest
The maximum depth of water on
the route is 180 feet, and a cover o1
chalk 100 feet thick would be left
undisturbed above the crown of the
tunnel to provide against any danger
from. an enemy or the sea, so that
the tunnel would descend to 'a level
of about 200 feet below the sea's sur-
face.
Iron tubes will be built up as the
tunnel advances, precisely as in the
London tubes, Owing to the extra-
ordinary advance in the art of tunnel-
ling in recent years the work could
be done quickly and it is estimated.
that . the tunnel itself could be com-
pleted in five or five and a half years.
The cost before the war was esti-
mated at $30,000,000, which amount
now probably would have to bo con-
siderably increased—to $100,000,000,
or even $125,000,000. The working
expenses before the war were calcu-
lated a
lated at $2,100,000year and the in-
come at $7,750,000, but both estimates
probably would now have to be ex-
ceeded.
Before the war it was thought that
British rolling stock, which differs
slightly in gauge from French and
Continental rolling stock• could not
be run over Continental lines. But
experience during the war, when
many thousands of British locomo-
tives and wagons have 'been used =-
the French lines, has proved that this
difficulty does not exist.
London to Ends of the Earth.
It would be possible to shorten the
journey to Paris greatly. Before the
war the quickest service was in six
hours, forty-five minutes. With the
tunnel the journey could be done in
six hours, whatever the weather. The
customs examination could be carried.
out in the trains.
London would be in direct communi-
cation with every part of Europe
where the gauge is similar to our
own. Through carriages could be run
to every Continental capital except
,Petrograd, as in Russia the gauge is
too wide to admit of standard trains.
The Bagdad lines and' its connec-
tions, now completing, will give a
complete route from Constantinople
to the Persian Gulf. This line is con-
nected by track of varying gauge
(some of which will not admit stan-
dard rolling stock) with Jerusalem
and Cairo, and from Cairo eventually
a railway is to be carried to the Cape.
Ultimately the Indian system wilt
be connected with the Bagdad Rail-
way, and a line has already been car-
ried some distance west from the In-
dian system through Southern Balu-
chistan, so that it is no mere dream
that one day trains will run from
London to Calcutta or Bombay.
Sword Kills More Than Rifle.
In spite of the long casualty lists of
the present war, fought with all the
fiendish contrivances of modern
science, the destruction of life is not
so great in proportion to earlier wars
when soldiers fought hand to hand.
The most deadly of all weapons was
the Roman short sword. Caesar re-
ported that at the battle he fought
near Namur his soldiers slew 60,000
Of the Nervii. There were no wound-
ed when the weapon was the short
sword, As men began to fight at
longer' range ' the death lists grew
shorter. It is an axiom of modern war
that it Costs a marksman his woight
In lead to kill one of the enemy.
