Tin; tunnel element, was ready for the quick turn, perhaps foresaw It, and then confusion or the other railroad Interests was complete. It was a solution least expected; and they are out of the line of connection with it.

So far as the details of the plan of the tunnel have been developed It Is shown that the line from the tunnel would Join the main track of the Pennsylvania on the meadows east of New York. The fourth vice president the Pennsylvania, Mr. Rea, Is responsible for the statement, and he is credited with the further remark that no trolley company and that no railway company except the Long Island and Pennsylvania companies, would be allowed to use the tunnels. The latter follows the first statement as a matter of course, for, If the junction of the tunnel line with the main linn Is so far beyond Jersey City, the use of the tunnel Is impossible by other companies. May Be Franchise Difficulties.

The real troubles of the Pennsylvania in the execution of its project begin now that it is determined upon. An entrance to Manhattan Island and the tunneling under it can only be done tinder the tunnel act and this provides that the municipal consent must be obtained and, as well, that of the property owners on the line of the proposed enterprise. The consent of tho State Board of Railroad Commissioners, also must be obtained, but that body. If it holds to the rule it established years ago, will insist that before it will consider the application the applicant should appear before it with those consents accomplished and in hand.

When the Brooklyn Greenville plans were made and confirmed, an entrance to Manhattan was already In the minds of the Pennsylvania Railroad authorities Indeed, was determined on. And this entrance was not intended alone through the projected tunnel under the East River from Long Island City.

There, a passage over the North River, by a bridge, was contemplated. This project was not then in such shape that it could be exploited, especially as to details.

IRENE DAVIS TELLS OF YOUNG BfflE'S LIE Says Cripple Wanted to Marry Her, Although She Had Seen Him but Three Times. HIS SUICIDE PLANNED AHEAD Baine Recently Wrote to Miss DavV That He Intended to Take His Life. "He was foolish," was the comment with which Irene Davis, for love of whom Martin L. Balne, tho crippled chair maker, of 320 Tenth street is believed to have committed suicide yesterday, when she heard the news of the latter's death. The girl is a servant in the home of Mr.

and Mrs. Louis Capren of 574 McDonough street. She is 13 years old, according to her own statement, unprepossessing in appearance and discussed her relations with the dead cripple with tho characteristic stolidity of some of the Scandi? navlan races from whom she is descended. According to what the girl told an Eagle reporter, she and Balne had only met three times. They first became acquainted, she says, three weeks ago, when iiaine called at the house selling jewelry.

Fin called again, the girl declares, a week later, bringing a present of a chain for her and proposing marriage. She refused both oilers, she says, not because Baine was a cripple, but also because she thought herself too young, and beside, felt only a friendly Interest in the former. When she refused his offer of marriage, the girl says, Balne mentioned some thing about doing away with bJt she did not. take it seriously until she re ceived a letter from him in which he de clared, so she says, that be would take hl life if she did not, marry htm. She then wrote to him, advising him against such an unreasonable act, and offering him trlend ship.

Some time after this Baino met her on the street and they went to a photographer's and had a group picture taken at Balne's solicitation. The girl says that she was to receive one of these pictures from Baine when they were finished, bill had not done so up to the time that she was Informed of tho latter's suicide by the reporter. The last, letter rrtim Halite she received veslordav morning and in It, she says, he nnouneed his firm Intention of doing away with himself. She destroyed the letter, sho says, ns soon as she had read it. Tho announcement, of Baine's death did not seem to visibly shock or even surprise her, although she admitted to the.

reporter that she did not think of him going to such despcrato extremes. In telling the reporter of her first meeting with Balne she described how he bad asked her for a drink of water and how she had brought him milk Instead. Sho did not explain this apparently pronounced evidence of favoritism toward stranger In whom she had no especial Interest, when It was brought to her attention by the reporter. Miss Davis says ihat she only saw Balne three times In her life, twice when he called at the, house and on the occasion when they had their pictures taken. She only wrote two letters to Mm, she says.

Before entering i service at the street house tho girl was an inmate or a training school tor i nUTSOS. THE BACHE'S TRIAL TRIP.

on the Pennsylvania salary list, it is well known now that In the possible construction of the bridge he would have been tho engineering power over all, under the initiation of the Pennsylvania, and, perhaps, the timo when that road decided to abandon the bridge idea and mado its quick turn to the tunnel can be definitely fixed by Its appearance as favoring the appointment of Mr. Llndenthal to that place. How the Tunnel Will Be Used. What seems to be definitely fixed Is that the tunnel will be used mainly, almost wholly, for passenger traffic. Such freight as Is purely local to central Manhattan may go through it but even this is doubtful.

Tho vast bulk of the freight from both West and East will be brought to the Greenville tor mlnals and conveyed by car ferry floats nrnntlvn Tha llnanf r. Vf, Vnlr connecting terminal to Astoria and tho bridge connecting Ward's and Randall's Islands with tho main Bhores of Long Island and Mott Haven will be built as set forth last June. Over this line from Bay Ridge tho great bulk of the freight will be carried Into the traffic arrangement with the New York, New Haven and Hartford. The great passenger and freight depots at East New York will bo constructed, making it the central railroad point for Brooklyn. Tho passenger traffic here originating will pass to the East over the connecting road yet to be built and the bridges over Ward's and Randall's Islands and for the West through the tunnel, the Brooklyn opening of which will be at Long Island City and passing under tho East Rtvt Manhattan and the North River will emerge to the other opening on the meadows back of Jersey City.

The paKBenger traffic originating at points west, of Newark and bound East beyond Manhattan will bo carried through the tunnel to Long Island City, where it will be directed to the connecting line to cross the island bridges to tho New Haven tracks. In short tho tunnel Idea Is not an amendment or change, of thp plana which touch Brooklyn and Long Island interests but are the fulfillment of them. New York Central Harmonious. The plans In their entirety are or such magnitude that It is difficult, to graBp them In all their details, and, it Is not surprising that rumors and misapprehensions should creep up. fine of tbe strongest Is that the Pennsylvania efforts to reach will result.

In the bitter antagonism of the New York Centra! Interest. Thin can he laid low In the most positive manner. The New York Central has been Informed from the first of the plans and intentions of the Pennsylvania, and not only does not antagonize them, but acquiesced la them did acquiesce in them before they became of public knowledge.

In each sheet are epigrammatic sentences hearing on tho possibilities of busineHH din ing tho year. Though this calendar marks the paralng of one year in a hundred.

It is In itself one calendar in a thousand for artistic, beauty and real UHefulncss. BROTHER IS COMPLAINANT.

Until a very recent period it was supposed that that entrance would be by bridge; the Anal development is that it will be by tunnel. The change is that, instead of crossing over the river, it will cross under it.

That, after all, is the sole change. But In the train of this change are some which, while they do not affect Brooklyn in any degree from the original intentions, do have a large and not benellcial influence on Now Jersey properties and the railroad companies other than Pennsylvania having their termini at. Jersey City. These detrimental Influences and results are not because of Pennsylvania's purposes, but are Incidental to the needs of that great company and, apparently, their own errors of judgment. Three Bridge Propositions to Other Railroads Rejected.

From information received from confidential sources, not of the Pennsylvania side, it may be stated that as far back as last winter the Idea of a bridge was broached to the other companies by the Pennsylvania. It would seem that it was viewed by that company in a broad and liberal spirit. Its original proposition was that there should be a community of interests among the roads terminating at Jersey City. A bridge company was proposed, so it is alleged, lu which all of the various railroads should bo stockholders and, as well, New Jersey commonwealth interests. By this plan a great union station In Manhattan waB projected and the great real estate Interests of northern and middle New Jersoy.

It was supposed, would be served. The proposition." howevor, was not accepted. Blind to their own interests, the real estate quantity, though earnestly desiring an outlet, other than by ferry, to the metropolis, showed a disinclination to enter seriously Into the scheme. The Pennsylvania had already Invested millions In the Greenville scheme of terminals, and the supposition seemed to be that the force of circumstances would compel tho Pennsylvania into shouldering the wholo financial responsibility of the bridge enterprise. In due course of time a second proposition was maCe, and that was that a bridge company should be formed to which all the railroad Interests should be subscribers to tho stock and such of the public as could see in the project good Investment.

Tho urgency of tho Pennsylvania seemed to confirm the idea that In working out its own development i that company must get to Manhattan on its own Initiative. This proposition fell by the wayside. A third one was then mado which Involved all of the first, tho Pennsylvania to take Interests beyond Its proportionate share, and If the other companies asreed to do the to guarantee a certain amount of yearly traffic to the bridge. This, too, went to tho wall, but it was under consideration up to a very recent period. Such are the allegations.

It is alleged that some of the other Interests held that through all theso movements the Pennsylvania had taken care that the control of tho completed bridge edifice should remain In Its hands. What seems to bo a fair presumption is that the Idea prevailed among the other Interests that the conditions were such; and the Pennsylvania by Its Initiated extensions and acquirements vas finally put In a position whereby It must get to Manhattan, and that It would havo to enter upon the enterprise Itself, when in the natural course of events the other Interests could benefit. Pennsylvania Engineers Pavored Tun nel All the Time. If this were so, the reasoning was correct, Such was Pennsylvania's position. Hut iti solvod its problem In a manner totally unci pectod.

CHILE ARGENTINE DISPUTE May rnvolve the Two South American States in Serious Trouble War Not Impossible.

Washington, December 14 The Chilean Charge d'Affaires, Mr. Infante, received a cablegram to day from tho Chilean Foreign Office, stating that an answer had been delivered yesterday to Argentine's latest noto In tho pending controversy, and that the Chilean government was confident of an amicable adjustment. Mr. Infante has received a number of dispatches from his government since the crisis began, all of them minimizing the seriousness of the trouble and asserting that peace would be maintained. Dr.

Garcia Merou, the Argentine Minister, received no dispatches from his government to day. Neither the representatives of Argentine or Chile havo any knowledge of formal overtures being made by the United Statos for the exercise of good offices, nor have either of the governments mado requests thus far for the friendly offices of any outside power. Although the public expressions of those occupying diplomatic positions are necessarily optimistic, there is reason for believing that tho situation Is more grave than the officials are willing to admit. On the part of Argentine, It appears to bo certain that she will maintain the stand sho has heretofore announced to Chile.
