London, April 10.—The Balkan allies have submitted their for- mal reply to the suggested peace negotiations with Turkey. The purports to be an aeccept- ance of the mediation conditions of the s, but the acceptance is subject to reservations which virtually repudiate the proposed terms. These are the counter propositions of the allies: 1. Indefinite determination of the frontier of the province of Thrace, the line indicated in the conditions formulated by the powers shall be taken as a basis and not as a definitive line. 2. The islands in the Aegean Sea shall go to the Balkan allies. 3. The allies consider they should know beforehand the reply power frontiers proposed for the future state of Albania, trusting they | will be in conformity with those they proposed in London. 4.

The allies agree that the operations of the war shall cease as soon as the above conditions have been favorably received. In defiance to the mandate of the powers, the Montenegrins and Servians are planning a general assault on Scutari. Fresh Ser- vian artillery has been brought up to the beleaguered Turkish fortress and the instant this is placed a general cannonade is to open, under cover of which the Montenegrins and Servians will advance to storm the city. - Mon- tenegrins generally are express- ing delight at the cefianee handed to a British admiral, who, speak- ing for the powers, demanded that the siege of Seutari should be abandoned. The concert of Europe is in dire danger of discord here today jas a result of the open defiance \of its wishes by Montenegro in refusing to abandon its attack upon or its claims for Seutari. Ambassadors of the powers are in almost constant informal con- ference and the future action of the great powers is problematical. Winnipeg, April 7—The Can- adian Pacific Railway has decided on another tunnel! in the western mountains. This tunnel will be sixteen miles long, the longest in the world, being nearly four miles longer than the famous Simplon Pass in the Alps, and nearly twice as long as_ the Lotschberg tunnel opened last year. The new tunnel will be through the famous Kicking Horse Pass of the Rocky Mountains. The eastern portal will be in Alberta and the western portal in British Columbia. Careful computations indicate that the work will cost $14,000,- 000 and will occupy seven years in completing. This is based on the data secured from construc- tion records of the five large Al- pine tunnels. The tunnel like that of the Selkirk Range through Rogers’ Pass will reduce the trackage by five miles and will do away with many miles of snow FOURTEEN MILLIONS FOR RAIL TUNNEL THROUGH THE ROCKIES ||CANADIAN PACIFIC TO HAVE THE LARGEST BORE WORLD, CONNECTING ALBERTA COLUMBIA In THE WITH BRITISH sheds. Grades will be reduced from 2% per cent to less than i per cent. " The Canadian Pacific has an even greater plan afoot than this and that is to almost eliminate the Rocky Mountains as far as rail commerce is concerned. The company proposes to have three and possibly four distinet lines from Winnipeg to the coast. The first will be the present main line, the second will be the new cutoff via Souris, the third will be through Saskatoon and Edmonton, through one of the northern passes into the com- petitive territory of the north- land and on to a Northern Pacific Coast port.
