The Hotel Walllngr- ford, at Pacific and Kentucky-ayes.. after having been thoroughly renovated and improved, has been reopened under the management of C. R. Bugler. The Ashbum. at the ocean end of South '"arolina- ave.. has been reopened under the management cf J. W. Johnson. A handsome buffet has been added to the Hotel New England. The Oriental Hotel, in Vermont-aye.. has been leased by J. J. Grafton. formerly proprietor of the L»mborn. and will open April 9. In spite of the number of hotels now la Atlantic City, many new ones are projected. New-York capital is being attracted by tfct> possibilities of profitable investment in Atlantic City hotel prop- erty, and several syndicates of capitalists have been formed and are, seeking Investment here. A Mr. Baker, the attorney for one of these syndicates, has secured options on two or three pieces of land, SB one of which an enormous steel frame fireproof hotel will be constructed. Two other agents are conducting a still hunt for desirable locations, and are said to have settled on properties in the Chelsea district, on the ocean front. Rumor has it that a Philadelphia company, with Senator Penrose at Its head, will jconstruct a million dollar hotel at Albany-aye. and the beach. A great buildingboom I is on in Atlantic City, and real estate values are soaring. Kuehnle's Hotel, \u25a0 landmark at South , Carolina and Atlantic-ayes., was sold the other day to John H. Denny, of Johnstown. Perm., for $300,000. This property was purchased about a score of years ago by Mr. Kuehnle's father for 16.2W). On the same afternoon Mr. Denny purchased the op- posite corner in Atlantic-aye. for $123,600. Although all parties to these transactions deny the assertion. it Is accepted as a fact by every one that the Kuehnle property was purchased by the Pennsyl- vania Railroad, and that a magnificent terminal station will be erected thereon immediately. This has been contemplated for years by the Pennsyl- vania road, but It has never been able to MBS to terms with Mr. Kuehnle. The property adjoins the present station of this road. It is also asserted that the new station will be a union one for both the Reading and the Pennsylvania Railroads. This is considered probable from the fact that the Read- In? is now avowedly the property of the Pennsyl- vania. The official opening of the yachting season took place on Monday night at the Atlantic City Yacht Club, on the occasion of a dinner given to his fel- low members by s;imue! M. Clements. Jr.. former District Attorney of Philadelphia. Speeches were made by Commodore Kuehnle. Mayor Stoy. former District Attorney Rothermel and others, after which the binnacle on the bridge at the upper end of the dining hall was lighted for the season by Chief Engineer John A. Mans. The next day Cap- tain Samuel Gale sailed the champion yacht. Mehrer 111, over the club course from the Inlet down past the ocean piers and back " the club- house. This formal opening baa been recognized by the Government by the removal of the bell buoy : from Its anchorage off the Steel Pier, two mile* oceanward. This will mark the turning point of the yachts In the regatta- of the coming season. A channel to the Inlet for moderate draught ves- sels has been insured by the letting of a contract for the dredging of a channel through the bar at Brigantlne. :m: m The success of the second annual exhibition of the Atlantic City Kennel Club is now assured beyond the most sanguine expectations of its pro- moters. The entries number over &00. which makes this show second in size only to that of New- York. That it will be a social affair equal to that of the annual horse show i.-- insured by the fact that the stewards and other officers Include many of the most prominent society men and women of New- York. Philadelphia and Washington, and all of them have entered dogs for competition. Some Japanese capitalists have formed a company to introduce the jinricksha as a vehicle for use both on the boardwalk and beach in the coming season. 1 Several of these vehicles have arrived from Japan and will be put In service In a few weeks. The motive power will be genuine "Japs." The vehicles for use here are of much narrower tread than those used on the roads of Japan, and those designed for travel on the Boardwalk will be fitted with pneu- matic tires.

April 4 (Special).— With Faster only one week off, the hotel keepers are confronted with the problem of caring for the great Influx of people that is coming in the interval. The beach front hotels are practically filled to their opacity to- night, and they are all sold out for Easter and the week following. There are sure to be thousands who will come without having made reservations. They will probably find refuge In the smaller hotel* back from the ocean, but these are also filling rapidly. There is no room for doubt now that the Easter crowds this year will not only break all records for this time of year, but it Is like!y that a new record will be created for any timo of the year. All trains fr-m New-York, as well as from \u25a0 South and West, are running- !n section", ar.d have been throughout the week. From this time on the travel will Increase, and the railroads are massing cars at the Jersey City. C;imden and Philadelphia terminals to carry the crowds to the snore to witness the Boardwalk pageant ot Easter morning. The storm that swept the coast In the early dnys of 'he week ended as abruptly as it began, ana the change on Tuesday from blustering March t.. smiling May came in a twinkling. In the last frnm hoars of its fury, however, it tossed a big steel steamer high on the bar of the inlet, at the lower end of the Boardwalk, where it net, the chief ob- ject of interest to tens of thousands of visitors. It is laden with bananas and cocoanuts, which have been jettisoned, and hundreds of small boats skim the surface Of the bay and return laden with the tropical fruit. The fear of lack ot ai commoaattona for the Eas- ter crowds hardly seems justified when the enor- mous number of hotels in this city Is considered. Although hundreds are now open and enjoying the largest patronage in their history at this season of ar, the reopening of others is reported daily. The Carrollton Inn, at Chetoea-ave. and the beach, has been reopened by Mrs. T. Keck. The Bryn Mawr, directly on the Boardwalk, near New* York-aye.. has been opened by Mr. Keffers. The Beaumont, in Tennessee-aye. below Pacitic-ave.. has been opened by John B. Core. The Sterling, in Kentucky-aye. near the beach, has been leased by s. A. Manuel & Co., and roopened after undergoing considerable improvement. The Hotel Richmond, in Kentucky-aye. facing the beach. li.-ts reopened under the management of Mrs. I. Sbnonson. The iUttenhoase. hi New Jsvscj -ave near the beach, has opened under the management of H. T. Halllnprr. The new five-story brick wing of the Rudolf; containing one hundred apartments, has been completed and is open for the reception of guests. Practically every apartment, however, had been enpr.gfi before the completion of the wing. The ESwood, at St. James Place and the beach, has reopened under the management of Messrs. Smith and P>ozarth. The Hotel Adolphus. in Kentucky-aye. near the beach, has been leased by John Penny, jr.. and H. B. Haviland. of Phila- CROWDS AT SEASIDE. feet and about 50 feet below the river bed. At the lowest part the tracks will be fully 130 feet lower than at the Court-st. station in Brooklyn. The Manhattan end of the tunnel nearly the whole length of the decline will, it is believed, be cut through solid rock, except for a short distance under the middle cf the river, where a bed of sand or clay, or both, will be encoun- tered. Then a smail dike of rock will have to be blasted through, after which, to Brooklyn and as far into that borough as the bore ex- tends, it will probably be excavated in the sandy glacial drift of which Long Island is composed to the greatest depths it has so far been ex- plored. The construction beneath the water level will be tubular, the. casing l>eing of steel or caatiron. Above th-? water level a reinforced concrete construction will be employed. The inclines are so long and so nearly equal that little power will be required for the pro- pulsion of the trains. After they are fairly started they will run to a point beneath the middle of the river with steadily increasing velocity from gravity on the roller coaster plan. On account of the hig-h speed possible the dis- tance probably will be covered in a shorter time than an equal distance on any other part of the subway system. Power will be needed only to start the trains from the stations at Bowling Green, on the Manhattan side, and Cnurt-st.. en the Brooklyn side. The trains on the tracks which pass beneath the river win run nearly twenty feet below the loop at South Ferry, around which the local trains are to pass. There will be no station nearer the river than Court-st. on the Brooklyn side, because the steep grade would make it almost impossible to stop the trains. The beginning of work on the rapid transit tunnel from the Battery to Brooklyn has aroused considerable interest in regard to the operation at trains after the completion of that portion of the subway. There will be very steep trades for the part of the tunnel beneath the river the incline in each direction from the centre being three and one-tenth feet to a hun- dred These inclines are long, diminishing In steepness only at the centre ar.d near the ends. The depth of the tunnel below mean high tide under the middle of the river will be about iJo How They Will Dip Under the East River. John Gennaro and his Italian concert band, of No. 25 East Fourteenth-st., furnishes specially ar- ranged programmes for Sunday performances. He has also special programmes for every nationality. A musical by the pupils of Mrs. Henry S. Boice took place Saturday at No. 28 East Twenty-third- st. The programme consisted of "Lore Me Well." Bemberg; "Romantic Melodies," Dvorak: "Villa- nella." Roff; "Elba's Traum," Wagner; "Eli -;••. Nollet. which were especially well rendered. AT THE LAKEWOOD HOTEL. Lakewood. N. J.. April 4 (Special)-— Automo- bile Club of America started its weekly series of out of town runs this season with a trip to 'Lake- wood to-day. Emerson Brooks, chairman of the committee on runs and tours, came to Lakewood early in the week to make arrangements for the trip. Starting from the clubhouse In the afternoon, the automobilists expect to rendezvous at the Lake- wood Hotel in time for dinner. They will spend Sunday in visiting the many points of interest in and around Lakewood. A large party w.MI take a spin over the new boulevard to Point Pleasant and the sea and others will visit Allaire and Toms River. Many of the participants in the run will return to New-York on to-morrow afternoon, but a number will remain over till Monday morning to enjoy machine tests over the new mile and a quar- ter speedway near the Lakewood Hotel. A young society woman of Philadelphia and a real Count, who were among the Friday to Mon- day visitors at the Lakewood Hotel, thought that it would be great fun to "sit out" everybody else at the hotel on Saturday evening. They settled themselves in comfortable rockers in the big lobby with the determination to remain there until every other patron of the hotel had retired for the night. At midnight the crowd had thinned out consider- ably and there were only a few young people and a party of brokers and business men in the lobby. Half an hour later these had gone to their rooms, and there was only one other person in the lobby besides themselves. He sat at the reading table. At intervals of ten minutes or so he would get up and walk over to the desk. Then he would return to his seat at the reading table. The Count and his companion by this time had exhausted their stock of small talk and the young woman was very sleepy. Finally they left their rockers and went over to the reading table. It was then a few min- utes to three. As they were about to sit down the man arose and said: "Excuse me, but I must turn some of these. lights out." And he suited the ac- tion to the word. He was the night watchman. The Count and the young woman bade each other good night. Late arrivals at the Lakewood Hotel Include the following from New- York: Mrs. William T.

Prink does, undoubtedly, in the well-to-do, bring people down from sham respectahfttty to open vice. It brought dow^* •'•\u25a0 BSU of a famous g-f?neral officer, himself orice hofcMng a tominfssion in a crack regiment, to fighting with his dying boy for a trinket, _and. on another day, to pitching the dead body^ on the flo.ir that he might pawn the blankets and sheets: that is nn* of my cases. But drink, the problem of drink, must be looked on as an effect of lilthygarrets, monotonous labor and starvation wages. We breed our drunkards. Just as we manufacture our criminals. The begin- ning of the cure, Ifeel confident, hi a tremen- dous exodus from the poisonous slums and al- leys to the open country. "Oh, the nonsense people talk about the poor! I remember once a famous woman coming down to the East End, and telling an audience of her haggard sisters that one of the thing? that drove their husbands to the public house was iad cooking. And then excellent soul! she proceeded to deliver a lecture on pretty and ap- petizing cookery. I could have screamed with \u25a0the irony of it! I longed to shout at her: "Do you know what the poor cook with? They cook with a saucepan, a kettle, and a tin fork; de- monstrate your dishes with their means" But— ialf I^ondon is talking nonsense about the other half. People don't know; people won't trouble o know; they come to the problem with their fast held theories ready made for the solution, and they fit the problem to the theory. They don't want to know the real shoddy. "Hut there are many ladies, of course, doing a great and silent work. Have you heard, to take one instance which touches the subject of the homeworkers, of the Farthing League? A few- excellent ladies in Richmond consulted me a year Hgo on the subject of doing something for the ground-down women, and the little Farthing League is the result. The league asks ladies to put into a money box a farthing tax on every yard and every article they purcha-se at the drapers' shops which has the usual as part of the price. Last year the league raised nearly £"<», and by this means K»4 women were sent to my Rest Home at Walton-on-the-Na^e for two weeks' holiday, and four for a month. The ages of thfse varied from seventeen to some- thing near eighty, and tb<? rate of their earnings from 2^d. an hour in the case of a widow with two children, to a penny an hour in the case of an unhappy creature who thus kept body and soul together by making tassels for umbrellas. "By-the-bye, I must tell you a little story concerning this Rest Home, I once sent down a poor creature whom I had discovered nodding off to death over her matchboxes. When she ar- rived she seemed dazed by the sight of God's sea iind the great wide laughing horizon. Some of us who were present watched her haggard face and the lustreless stare of her big cavern- ous eyes; and as we looked we were puzzled to p^e that hr-r hands, as though striving to ex- press her wonderment, worked ceaselessly and convulsively at her side. This went on so long that we gave up the theory of wonderment, and presently discovered the truth.. In front of the sea. with the shrewd wind in her face, the noise of the waves on the h^-ach. and all about her green downs and waving grasses— she was making matchboxes." -Who can fail to see it.. and Feel it?" "From that little scrap of paper came my dream. I saw the possibility of combining the horr.eworkers irto one corporate body; buying their food not by the hoarded halfpennies and farthings of their wages, but by the pounds of their aggregated earnings. Do you see what I mean? One woman earning 10 shillings a week Uvea below the poverty line, and her children sink with her either to death' or to moral chacs ... thousand women earning the same wages produce £300 a week; and --'I* 1 \u25a0 wwk will provide a thousand families at least with healthy fare, the means of sanitation, and the chances of health. All the access of lift- you see could be bought wholesale. Ana so my dream is to organize the homeworkers; not for strikes and lockouts, but for health. virtue and happiness I want to transplant them from their dogholes and garrets-dean out or London— to s<v*ne rlace in the country. Wn> not villages of workers, with an organiza- tion of their labor-rooms lighted by trlcity. machines driven by it. the fetching and carrying done by one common motor car? Wh;. not make a giant club for them? One thousand adult members to each club, and the weekly income £500 Is that Utopian or unpractical." "On the contrary." . '•Well, that is my dream-at least, that is how I must hint it to you. I give you the shell of the idea and from that only you must Judge whether 'the kern. really solves the problem Perhaps the announcement of the scheme will S&Sf&ffiSSr.derf of excellence amor '5 people living m this sorry fashion? "Ob, the rarest humanity: There is i no hero- ism can look it in the eyes. Th most splendid pluck, often the most beautiful trust in God. Ind always an attempt to hide the «bjectnesa of their lives.

"I thought a great deal had been done for the matchmakers"' says the interviewer. "The public shares your confusion of thought most unfortunately. You remember there was an outcry some years ago against the dangers to health incurred by the matchmakers? Well, the outraged shareholders can now visit their factory, and go away with pride and benevo- lence in their kind hearts. They will find every- thing in an admirable condition cleanliness, fresh air. healthy materials to work on. fair wages, and reasonable hours. But who make The matchboxes? The firm are quite safe. 'We do not make them ourselves,* they reply; 'we buy them from \u25a0 contractor.' The shareholders thank God. and pocket their dividends with a cle£i conscience. But the matchl-oxes are made by women and children, who find their own paste, fetch and return their work, and receive C'-id. a gross in me cases it is less." "What is the remedy?" "You remember that a religious enthusiast asked the public for a million pounds. and promised to save the submerged tenth? He took over the freehold of muddy humanity; and the other half of the world was glad to buy off its responsibility so cheaply. Well, what has hap- pened? There is as much destitution and as much injustice la London to-day as there was •when respect put down its money. As many children die of starvation, and as many women curse God and die under the heel of the sweater. Then your municipal authorities, in- spired with Che same motivates* of benevolence, buy a few rockeries, pu' lem down, and build up flats for workmen earning high wages! All the way through this sorry business you will find that it Is well off and organized labor that is cared for; the lex^n and haggard army cf homeworkers is pressed nearer and nearer the river. The most democratic member of Parlia- ment, for all his humane speeches, la only the representative of organized labor. Poverty and starvation are rotten boroughs— unrepresented." "Is there no hope for them?" "I believe there la." he exclaimed, the tired eyes hardening, "and I am devoting my energies to its fulfilment. That fulfilment is the dream of my life. It keeps me going. I have seen trough sorrow, depravity and ruin to make me think of throwing up the sponge; but this ray of light which has come to me helps me wonder- fully to go on pegging away. To be honest, I'm in love with it. I— Tan a bit of a fighter when I Fee the goal. I cannot tell you the whole scheme, because I am working with one who desires neither publicity nor sound of trumpets till the dream is something of a fact. But I can tell you a little. And first of all, let me tell you the genesis of the dream; for it is very Interesting, and shows how God may work by the tiniest means to a great end. "A little girl appeared before the magistrate charged with stealing food. She had stolen— ehe was a thief in the eyes of the law—in order that her brothers might not die of starvation. The case led me to seek out the child's mother. I found her in a pitiful dog hole of a place a widow, keeping body and soul together by making cheap blouses. As I talked] to her, and my eyes ranged over the miserable home. I es- pied a rap of dirty paper on the table. It was an account of how she had spent her last shil- ling: 'Tea, %d.; sugar, *:•>&.: bread, l^id.; mar- garine. Id.; oil. Id.; firewood, %d.; and a bit of bacon.' The case appeared in the papers, and attracted a great deal of attention. It made me acquainted with a hard headed philanthropist— the man of whom I have spoken to you. "Do you know,* he said to me. 'what strikes me most about that widow's housekeeping account?' "The poverty ?* \u25a0Not at all.' he answered; "it's the hor- rible and senseless waste of it! Do you suppose Ehe gets a full halfpennyworth of tea or sugar. or a full pennyworth of margarine? No. She loses on every purchase; she is bound to. The •shopkeeper can'T lose, so she must. Multiply the loss on that shilling by the number of shillings ep<?nt In the year. Why, It is frightful. You ap- preciate ... of view? The more abject the poverty of the poor, the greater the price they pay for the meanest necessaries of daily exist- That seemingly unnolvable problem of I m to help the poorest classes of a great city -without pauperizing them Is perpetually worrying those philanthropic people •who come in daily per- sonal contact with the "submersed tenth.- The •.a. c seems hopeless to most persons, but every new ani then some one more hopeful than the rest comes forward with a new plan for Its solution. The latest plan is set out in "The Pall Mail Magazine" by means of an interview with Its Inventor. Thomas Holmes, a police court missionary of London, who is backed by the Emrll»h Police Court Mission Fund. The conversation between Mr. Holmes and "The Pall Mall Magazine" writer starts with the treat improvements which have recently been made in the conditions of organized labor. Mr. Holmes acknowledges them: "but.*" he asks, "who will organize the women and children toll- Ing over matchboxes, toothbrushes, shirts. till—in, babies* clothing, fur jackets, mantles, artificial flowers— and your West End tailors' clothes? Who will be bothered to organize fami- lies who earn from 9 to 10 shillings a week? "What profit is to be got out of this shoddy human material for the expense of the organiz- ers? No!

City, many new ones are projected. New-Yorkcapital is being attracted by tfct> possibilities ofprofitable investment in Atlantic City hotel prop-erty, and several syndicates of capitalists have beenformed and are, seeking Investment here. A Mr.Baker, the attorney for one of these syndicates,has secured options on two or three pieces of land,SB one of which an enormous steel frame fireproofhotel will be constructed. Two other agents areconducting a still hunt for desirable locations, andare said to have settled on properties in the Chelseadistrict, on the ocean front. Rumor has it that aPhiladelphia company, with Senator Penrose at Itshead, will jconstruct a million dollar hotel atAlbany-aye. and the beach. A great buildingboom

Iis on in Atlantic City, and real estate values aresoaring. Kuehnle's Hotel, \u25a0 landmark at South,Carolina and Atlantic-ayes., was sold the other dayto John H. Denny, of Johnstown. Perm., for$300,000. This property was purchased about a scoreof years ago by Mr. Kuehnle's father for 16.2W). Onthe same afternoon Mr. Denny purchased the op-posite corner in Atlantic-aye. for $123,600. Althoughall parties to these transactions deny the assertion.it Is accepted as a fact by every one that theKuehnle property was purchased by the Pennsyl-vania Railroad, and that a magnificent terminalstation will be erected thereon immediately. Thishas been contemplated for years by the Pennsyl-vania road, but It has never been able to MBS toterms with Mr. Kuehnle. The property adjoins thepresent station of this road. It is also assertedthat the new station willbe a union one for boththe Reading and the Pennsylvania Railroads. Thisis considered probable from the fact that the Read-In? is now avowedly the property of the Pennsyl-vania.

The official opening of the yachting season tookplace on Monday night at the Atlantic City YachtClub, on the occasion of a dinner given to his fel-low members by s;imue! M. Clements. Jr.. formerDistrict Attorney of Philadelphia. Speeches weremade by Commodore Kuehnle. Mayor Stoy. formerDistrict Attorney Rothermel and others, afterwhich the binnacle on the bridge at the upper endof the dining hall was lighted for the season byChief Engineer John A. Mans. The next day Cap-tain Samuel Gale sailed the champion yacht.Mehrer 111, over the club course from the Inletdown past the ocean piers and back " the club-house. This formal opening baa been recognized bythe Government by the removal of the bell buoy

:from Its anchorage off the Steel Pier, two mile*oceanward. This will mark the turning point ofthe yachts In the regatta- of the coming season.A channel to the Inlet for moderate draught ves-sels has been insured by the letting of a contractfor the dredging of a channel through the bar atBrigantlne. :m:

mThe success of the second annual exhibition of

the Atlantic City Kennel Club is now assuredbeyond the most sanguine expectations of its pro-moters. The entries number over &00. which makesthis show second in size only to that of New-York.That it will be a social affair equal to that of theannual horse show i.-- insured by the fact that thestewards and other officers Include many of themost prominent society men and women of New-York.

Some Japanese capitalists have formed a companyto introduce the jinricksha as a vehicle for use bothon the boardwalk and beach in the coming season.

1 Several of these vehicles have arrived from Japanand will be put In service In a few weeks. Themotive power will be genuine "Japs." The vehiclesfor use here are of much narrower tread than thoseused on the roads of Japan, and those designed for

travel on the Boardwalk will be fitted with pneu-matic tires.

Problem of Caring for Them at

Atlantic Cittj.Atlantic City. April4 (Special).— With Faster only

one week off, the hotel keepers are confronted withthe problem of caring for the great Influx of people

that is coming in the interval. The beach fronthotels are practically filled to their opacity to-

night, and they are all sold out for Easter and the

week following. There are sure to be thousandswho willcome without having made reservations.They will probably find refuge In the smaller hotel*back from the ocean, but these are also filling

rapidly. There is no room for doubt now that the

Easter crowds this year will not only break allrecords for this time of year, but it Is like!y that anew record will be created for any timo of theyear. All trains fr-m New-York, as well as from•

\u25a0 South and West, are running- !n section", ar.d

have been throughout the week. From this time

on the travel will Increase, and the railroads aremassing cars at the Jersey City. C;imden andPhiladelphia terminals to carry the crowds to the

snore to witness the Boardwalk pageant ot Eastermorning.

The storm that swept the coast In the early dnys

of 'he week ended as abruptly as it began, anathe change on Tuesday from blustering March t..

smiling May came in a twinkling. In the last frnm

hoars of its fury, however, it tossed a big steel

steamer high on the bar of the inlet, at the lower

end of the Boardwalk, where it net, the chief ob-ject of interest to tens of thousands of visitors. It

is laden with bananas and cocoanuts, which have

been jettisoned, and hundreds of small boats skim

the surface Of the bay and return laden with thetropical fruit.

The fear of lack ot ai commoaattona for the Eas-ter crowds hardly seems justified when the enor-mous number of hotels in this city Is considered.Although hundreds are now open and enjoying thelargest patronage in their history at this season of

• ar, the reopening of others is reported

daily. The Carrollton Inn, at Chetoea-ave. and thebeach, has been reopened by Mrs. T. Keck. The

Bryn Mawr, directly on the Boardwalk, near New*York-aye.. has been opened by Mr. Keffers. TheBeaumont, in Tennessee-aye. below Pacitic-ave..

has been opened by John B. Core. The Sterling, inKentucky-aye. near the beach, has been leasedby s. A. Manuel & Co., and roopened afterundergoing considerable improvement. The HotelRichmond, in Kentucky-aye. facing the beach.li.-ts reopened under the management of Mrs.

I. Sbnonson. The iUttenhoase. hi New Jsvscj -avenear the beach, has opened under the management

of H. T. Halllnprr. The new five-story brick wing

of the Rudolf; containing one hundred apartments,

has been completed and is open for the reception

of guests. Practically every apartment, however,

had been enpr.gfi before the completion of thewing. The ESwood, at St. James Place and thebeach, has reopened under the management of

Messrs. Smith and P>ozarth. The Hotel Adolphus.

in Kentucky-aye. near the beach, has been leasedby John Penny, jr.. and H. B. Haviland. of Phila-

feet and about 50 feet below the river bed. At

the lowest part the tracks will be fully130 feet

lower than at the Court-st. station in Brooklyn.

The Manhattan end of the tunnel nearly the

whole length of the decline will, it is believed,

be cut through solid rock, except for a short

distance under the middle cf the river, where abed of sand or clay, or both, will be encoun-tered. Then a smail dike of rock will have to

be blasted through, after which, to Brooklyn

and as far into that borough as the bore ex-tends, it willprobably be excavated in the sandy

glacial drift of which Long Island is composed

to the greatest depths it has so far been ex-plored. The construction beneath the water

level will be tubular, the. casing l>eing of steel

or caatiron. Above th-? water level a reinforced

concrete construction will be employed.

The inclines are so long and so nearly equal

that little power will be required for the pro-pulsion of the trains. After they are fairly

started they will run to a point beneath the

middle of the river with steadily increasingvelocity from gravity on the roller coaster plan.

On account of the hig-h speed possible the dis-

tance probably will be covered in a shortertime than an equal distance on any other part

of the subway system. Power will be neededonly to start the trains from the stations atBowling Green, on the Manhattan side, and

Cnurt-st.. en the Brooklyn side. The trains onthe tracks which pass beneath the river win

run nearly twenty feet below the loop at SouthFerry, around which the local trains are to pass.

There will be no station nearer the river than

Court-st. on the Brooklyn side, because thesteep grade would make it almost impossible to

stop the trains.

The beginning of work on the rapid transit

tunnel from the Battery to Brooklyn has

aroused considerable interest in regard to the

operation at trains after the completion of that

portion of the subway. There will be very steep

trades for the part of the tunnel beneath the

river the incline in each direction from the

centre being three and one-tenth feet to a hun-

dred These inclines are long, diminishing In

steepness only at the centre ar.d near the ends.

The depth of the tunnel below mean high tide

under the middle of the river will be about iJo

AT THE LAKEWOOD HOTEL.Lakewood. N. J.. April 4 (Special)-— Automo-

bile Club of America started its weekly series ofout of town runs this season with a trip to 'Lake-wood to-day. Emerson Brooks, chairman of thecommittee on runs and tours, came to Lakewoodearly in the week to make arrangements for thetrip. Starting from the clubhouse In the afternoon,

the automobilists expect to rendezvous at the Lake-wood Hotel in time for dinner. They will spendSunday in visiting the many points of interest in

and around Lakewood. A large party w.MI take aspin over the new boulevard to Point Pleasant and

the sea and others will visit Allaire and Toms

River. Many of the participants in the run willreturn to New-York on to-morrow afternoon, but anumber will remain over till Monday morning toenjoy machine tests over the new mile and a quar-

ter speedway near the Lakewood Hotel.A young society woman of Philadelphia and a

real Count, who were among the Friday to Mon-day visitors at the Lakewood Hotel, thought that

it would be great fun to "sit out" everybody elseat the hotel on Saturday evening. They settled

themselves in comfortable rockers in the big lobby

with the determination to remain there until every

other patron of the hotel had retired for the night.

At midnight the crowd had thinned out consider-ably and there were only a few young people and aparty of brokers and business men in the lobby.

Half an hour later these had gone to their rooms,

and there was only one other person in the lobby

besides themselves. He sat at the reading table.At intervals of ten minutes or so he would get up

and walk over to the desk. Then he would return

to his seat at the reading table. The Count and

his companion by this time had exhausted their

stock of small talk and the young woman was very

sleepy. Finally they left their rockers and went

over to the reading table. It was then a few min-

utes to three. As they were about to sit down the

man arose and said: "Excuse me, but Imust turn

some of these. lights out." And he suited the ac-tion to the word. He was the night watchman.

The Count and the young woman bade each

other good night.

one of the effects. Prink does, undoubtedly, inthe well-to-do, bring people down from shamrespectahfttty to open vice. It brought dow^*•'•\u25a0 BSU of a famous g-f?neral officer, himself oricehofcMng a tominfssion in a crack regiment, tofighting with his dying boy for a trinket,_and.on another day, to pitching the dead body^ onthe flo.ir that he might pawn the blankets andsheets: that is nn* of my cases. But drink, theproblem of drink, must be looked on as aneffect of lilthygarrets, monotonous labor andstarvation wages. We breed our drunkards. Justas we manufacture our criminals. The begin-ning of the cure, Ifeel confident, hi a tremen-dous exodus from the poisonous slums and al-leys to the open country.

"Oh, the nonsense people talk about the poor!Iremember once a famous woman coming downto the East End, and telling an audience of herhaggard sisters that one of the thing? thatdrove their husbands to the public house wasiad cooking. And then

—excellent soul!

—she

proceeded to deliver a lecture on pretty and ap-petizing cookery. Icould have screamed with

\u25a0the irony of it!Ilonged to shout at her: "Doyou know what the poor cook with? They cookwith a saucepan, a kettle, and a tin fork; de-monstrate your dishes with their means" But—ialf I^ondon is talking nonsense about the other

half. People don't know; people won't troubleo know; they come to the problem with their

fast held theories ready made for the solution,and they fit the problem to the theory. Theydon't want to know the real shoddy.

"Hut there are many ladies, of course, doinga great and silent work. Have you heard, totake one instance which touches the subject ofthe homeworkers, of the Farthing League? A few-excellent ladies in Richmond consulted me ayear Hgo on the subject of doing something forthe ground-down women, and the little FarthingLeague is the result. The league asks ladies toput into a money box a farthing tax on everyyard and every article they purcha-se at thedrapers' shops which has the usual as partof the price. Last year the league raised nearly£"<», and by this means K»4 women were sentto my Rest Home at Walton-on-the-Na^e fortwo weeks' holiday, and four for a month. Theages of thfse varied from seventeen to some-thingnear eighty, and tb<? rate of their earningsfrom 2^d. an hour in the case of a widow withtwo children, to a penny an hour in the case ofan unhappy creature who thus kept body andsoul together by making tassels for umbrellas.

"By-the-bye, Imust tell you a little storyconcerning this Rest Home, Ionce sent downa poor creature whom Ihad discovered noddingoff to death over her matchboxes. When she ar-rived she seemed dazed by the sight of God'ssea iind the great wide laughing horizon. Someof us who were present watched her haggardface and the lustreless stare of her big cavern-ous eyes; and as we looked we were puzzled top^e that hr-r hands, as though striving to ex-press her wonderment, worked ceaselessly andconvulsively at her side. This went on so longthat we gave up the theory of wonderment, andpresently discovered the truth.. In front of thesea. with the shrewd wind in her face, the noiseof the waves on the h^-ach. and all about hergreen downs and waving grasses— she wasmaking matchboxes."

-Who can fail to see it..and Feel it?"

"From that little scrap of paper came my

dream. Isaw the possibility of combining thehorr.eworkers irto one corporate body; buying

their food not by the hoarded halfpennies and

farthings of their wages, but by the pounds oftheir aggregated earnings. Do you see what I

mean? One woman earning 10 shillings a weekUvea below the poverty line, and her childrensink with her either to death' or to moralchacs ... thousand women earning the

"The public shares your confusion of thought—most unfortunately. You remember there was

"What is the remedy?"

"You remember that a religious enthusiastasked the public for a million pounds. andpromised to save the submerged tenth? He took

over the freehold of muddy humanity; and the

other half of the world was glad to buy off itsresponsibility so cheaply. Well, what has hap-pened? There is as much destitution and asmuch injustice la London to-day as there was•when respect put down its money. Asmany children die of starvation, and as many

till the dream is something of a fact. But Ican tell you a little. And first of all, let me tellyou the genesis of the dream; for it is veryInteresting, and shows how God may work by

the tiniest means to a great end.

"A little girlappeared before the magistratecharged with stealing food. She had stolen—ehe was a thief in the eyes of the law—in order

that her brothers might not die of starvation.

The case led me to seek out the child's mother.

Ifound her in a pitiful dog hole of a place—

a widow, keeping body and soul together by

making cheap blouses. As Italked] to her, andmy eyes ranged over the miserable home. Ies-pied a rap of dirty paper on the table. It was

an account of how she had spent her last shil-

attracted a great deal of attention. Itmade me

acquainted with a hard headed philanthropist—

the man of whom Ihave spoken to you. "Do you

know,* he said to me. 'what strikes me most

about that widow's housekeeping account?' "The

poverty ?* \u25a0Not at all.' he answered; "it's the hor-

solution. The latest plan is set out in "The PallMailMagazine" by means of an interview with

Its Inventor. Thomas Holmes, a police court

missionary of London, who is backed by theEmrll»h Police Court Mission Fund.

The conversation between Mr. Holmes and"The Pall Mall Magazine" writer starts withthe treat improvements which have recently

been made in the conditions of organized labor.Mr. Holmes acknowledges them: "but.*" he asks,

"who willorganize the women and children toll-Ing over matchboxes, toothbrushes, shirts.till—in, babies* clothing, fur jackets, mantles,
