WILL TUNNEL UNDElc
DETROIT RIVER
Construction Will Require Nearly Four
Years.
IVtroit. Mich., Aug. 25. Work on the
railroad tunnel, which is to be construct
ed under the IVtroit river between Wind
sor and Detroit, begun today, when a
force of workmen were set to work
sinking the initial shaft on the American
side. While there is still much pre
liminary surveying and testing to I
done, the location of the tunnel is prac
tically decided upon.
The official plue-print of the engi
neers in charge of construction show
that the approach on the Detroit side
will start midway between Fifteenth
and Sixteenth streets on the present
right of way of the Michigan Central.
It is said that the Michigan Central
company will not need to buy a foot of
land in order to build the tunnel, the
present right of way furnishing all
the room necessary.
The actual length of the underground
portion of the tunnel will lie two and
six-tenths miles and the distance from
surface to surface almost exactly three
miles. It is estimated that between two
and three years will be occupied in the
construction.
The Detroit River Tunnel company
Was formed through the merger of the
Michigan 1 Canada Bridge A Construc
tion company and Canada 4 Michigan
Bridge t Tunnel company. The officers
of the new company are: President.

F. A. Kilburtt crashed into the Portland
Flouring mills dock and lore away a
portion of her starboard rait, but no one
on board was Injured. Captain Harry
Etuken, pilot, was at the wheel at the
time and it was only due to his coolness
and quick work that a more serious re
sult was averted. The Kilburn was
jogging along at a lively rate of speed,
but the engines were reversed in time
to stop the steamer from cutting through
the big timbers of the wharf. Thus she
struck a glancing blow and only a por
tion of the heavy guard rail was ground
to pieces. Failure of the steering gear
to work properly at the eriticul moment
is said, to have la-en the cause of the
accident.

Horace McKinlcy, 17 years old, who
ni me from Monroe a week ago, is one

perous farmer of Monroe, and while
working on the farm ran a pitchfork
through his toe. His father, Is-couiing
alarmed at his son's condition, sent him
to St. Vincent's hospital to . treated,
When he had Is-en there two days evi
dence of lockjaw developed, and the
puti-toxine treatment was used, so that
now lie is on the road to recovery. The
same time that M Kinlcy entered the
hospital Edward Midey, a Brooklyn
