Tunneling the Straits. SENATOR HOWLAN’S PLAN, _

r Howlan,says an Oltawa despatch of the 8th inst., believes he has solved the ditliculty by which the terms of confedera- clon upon which Prince Edward Island entered the union may be carried out, and conUnuous steam communication with the mainland be fully established. He will on the 8th, submit plans and profiles to the Senate which have been favorably reported upon by Vernon Smith, C. E., Senator Howlan proposes that the Island shall be connected with the mainland by a tunnel between Cape Traverse and Cape Tormen- tine, a distance of eight and half miles. It is proposed to run bridge work for ten

Sena

thousand feet on the New Brunswick side, and four thousand feet onthe P. E. Island side, which will connect at each end with a metal cylinder ten feet in diameter, three-eights of an inch thick, lined with concrete two feet and

ahalf thick. Where the cylinder joins the trestle work the water is 25 feet ‘deep, at which point a gradual descent will be made at the bottom of the Straits, along which the cylinder is placed in sections in a simi- lar manner to that spanning the Thames, Clyde and Severn, making the cylinder section five and a half miles in length. Ventilation will be bya shaft half way across, 90 feet deep. The total cost, ac- cording to the estimates before the Govern- ment, is two million dollars. The greatest depth of water is only 14 fathoms. It is shown that with the highest wind, the cur- rent running through the Straits is only four knots, while the minimum current is one knot per hour. It is proposed to run cars through the tunnel drawn by a fire- less engine.
