deavOrs whether voluntarily or enforced to Sc,
cure complete combustion OF the smoke and
accompanying gases from their furnaces. In
one case the gas is conducted by pipe to the
bottom OF the furnace, and then sent into the
boilers and heating stoves, and there consumed
instead of coal-ihe blast of the furnace being
heated to a temperature Of from 900 to 100
degrees, without the use Of any coal whatever.
The combustion is so complete that it is impos-

inexpcable mysteries OF NeT York is the pneu.
matt railway. In the year 1865 pneumatic
railway company received Il charter providing
that tube might be sunk through Broadway
for the purpose of conveying parcels, dispatches,
and mail matter to Intermediate points along
the route. Although operations commenced
year ago, the work has progressed only from
the corner ol Warren street and Broadway to
the southern extremity Of the City Hall Park.
Indeed, it is impossible to speak with certainty
in regard 10 the progress of tho WORK, us mem
bers OF the press are invariably dGnied all in
formation, and the laborers employed are sworn
70 secrecy. 1t is not doubted, however, that
the construction OF the tunnel is going Oh both

ployed on the work. Why the matter should
be made so mysterious no one has yet ventured

The arrest OF Joseph Ward alias James Martin alias
Dr. Hunter, and indefinite number OF other aliases
which took place on Tuesday, reveals an interesting
character OF sharp and successful financial opera
tons. As thus far developed the operations OF the
prisoner have been exclusively confined to alleged
operations in fraudulent checks, which, through
forged certificates, he :has had no dinculy in con-
vertlng into the more soiidihed and substantial form
Of current greenbacks. The prisoner was yesterday

both in his apparel and the cut OF his whskers such
complete characterization has he undergone that

about dozen were present. were able to identity

The proceedings in court were long. First an am
davit was mace against the prisoner by Mr.. George

a1davlt t was stated that the accused on the 1st Of
last month came to Mr.. WHY'S establishment, and,
the velocpede mania being then at It's height pur-
payment for the purchase he gave q check for 1858
on the National shoe and Leather Bank,

thing seemed all right His check was taken, and
to Mr.. Martin, the name he Thus assumed as his
own, counted OUT $tl3 In greenbacks the difference
between the amount OF the check and the yelOci-
pede. In the usual order Of business the check
found it's way into the shoe and Leather Bank and
was returned as worthless. As TO the cneck, Mr..
John NJ Crom, cashier OF the bank, made Al sfIda-
VII that no such man as Frank Bird kept an account
there, and that the ceftihcaton was forgery.
Upon the above anidayits the prisoner was
