TUNNEL ROAD.
MINISTER UNFAVOURABLE. [Feom Oue Correspondent.] WELLINGTON, October 2. . Mr Ell recently asked the Minister of Public Works to have a report made on the cost of tunnelling a roadway to Lyttelton through the Port Hills. Sir William Eraser replied to-day: "I regret to have to inform the honourable gentleman that I cannot favourably consider this proposal. The deviation N on the Lyttelton-Sumner Road now being constructed will afford very fair means of access between Christchurch and Lyttelton for a long time to come."
