or tho Ten Mile tunnel.
Ho nlso stnted thnt Porter Hrpth
ers hnve not taken over the bnlanco
of tho contract for tho road from
tho MncArthur, Perks company. He
Raid thnt If they hnd, he had not been

of the contract south from tho Ten

pany, when they sublet part of the

will work from both ends nnd will
rush It through just as rapidly Ub
possible. There Is no time limit on
It In their contract with tho Southern
Pacific other than that the work
shall be done expeditiously. Just
how rapidly the tunnel can bo driven
Mr. Porter would not venturo to

the kind or ronnatlon they encount
ered. Mr. Porter wns very reluctant
nbout giving out an Interview as ho
said that sometimes wrong interpre
