THE OTIRA TUNNEL.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Wednesday. At a committee meeting of the Canterbury Progress League to-day the following motion was carried: "That the Minister of Public Works be strongly urged to take eteps to proceed with the construction of the Otira Tunnel at a greater rate of progress, 'by employing more men at an adequate wage, consistent with the nature of the work, so that the line may more speedily become remunerative and save the present loss of interest on the amount already expended, which can best be achieved by the early linking up of the east and west coasts."
