What Yerkes 8aid.
By Associated Press.
New York, Dec. 9.—Chas. T. Yerkes,
who has arrived here from Europe to
spend the holidays, said in an inter*'
view that it was much easier digging
his London tunnels than it was the
subway in New York, as the ground
through which he had to go was blue
clay, which cut like cheese, while two
difficulties werte to be overcome in the
construction of the tunnel in New
York, which he did not have to con-
sider. They were the flint rock and
the foundation of the high buildings.
“I have used no dynamite,” he con-
tinued. “it is only a case of going
ahead. There should be nothing but
fireproof cars used on underground
roads."
