The road, as its name implies, is to be built under the sidewalk of the street, the space required being only eight feet in width by eight feet in hight. At the curb line a wall Is laid from one end of the street to the other. Under the other side cf the walk the curb wrall is parallel with a stone foundation for posts and a fence. On this foundation and on the base of the curb wall rails are laid. Iron columns are set on the inner wall suporting girders level with the top of the curb wall and marking the line between the sidewalk proper and the area space. A wire fence connects the posts and separates the railroad from the area space. This space will he for stairways and entrances to basements. With the curb-wal- l, girders and bases of buildings for support, a prismatic walk Is laid for the purpose of admitting light into the space below. Electricity is to be the motive power. The speed, the plan sets forth, will not be less than thirty miles an hour, and may in some cases be as high as sixty miles an hour. One of the advantages claimed for the road is that it will convert the basements of buildings into valuable property. This and other it is believed would make owners the property readily give their consent to the construction of the road. short stories for published Every Saturday Railway.
