FOURTH AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS.

DetentiOns or tho Trains ON tho Harlem
Railroad by tho Work OF Excavation
What the Contractors Say-Thc New
Bridges from Forty-second to Fifty.
ninth street.
The occasional detention of trains on the Harlem
Railroad, between New York and Harlem River, il
the cause OF considerable grumblng by many OF
the detained passengers On Thursday afternoon
the White Plains train was detained In the
Yorkvile tunnel more than one hour and
a half These detentions are occasioned
by the work Of excavation that Is going
for the laying OF additional tracks and the low
ering OF the present road, details as to which wero
the magnitude OF the work and its peculiar char
acter the contractors say the marvel Is that there
are not more impediments in the way OF the Ordi-
nary traffic than there Is. Though the blasting and
tunnelling and especially that part OF 1t from
Ninety second to Ninety-sixth street, Is worked
under circumstances greatly calculated to result in
loss OF life or limb, not one life has yet been lost IN
the progress OF the work. short time ago two
men were killed by q careless and stupid mode of
using the blasting powder; but with that excep-
ton, the work has gone on without the record Of
any fatality. The level crossings from FOrtysecOnd
street to Filtyninth street, and which occasioned
great loss Of life about year ago. are fast
being bridged by neat light bridge OF easy ascent
and descent One at the north end Of the depot is
nearly complete, and Is now used by all pedes-
TRANS wishing to 60 the west east side OF tho
avenues. These bridges are constructed OF wood
with iron supports, and are rather attractive In
appearance than otherwise. On the higher part OF
Fourth avenue from Ninetieth street to 10th
street. 1t Is alleged that the throwing up OF the sol
has caused chis and lever to be prevalent in the
neighborhood Inquiries In the neghbOrho0d yes
terday by HERALD reporter failed to find any in
dicaions OF it, and the men who are at work In the
tunnel ftysix feet below the surface, all said thae
they were healthy and that they knew OF case Of
chs or fever In their boarding houses.

The market opened this morning under crcum-
stances that enshrouded its movements In mystery.
without any apparent exciting cause. without
sympathy with any known financial changes, and
seemingly 0bedient to a mere within, gold took IT'S
stand at lis, from which point, with but one or
two exceptions, 1t did not recede during the day;
on the contrary, 1t grew stronger AZ 1t advanced
an u, and e, at which latter figure the market
closed. 1t was soon noised abroad that "the
cliquen had resumed operations, and the tongues
OF the street waxed busy in circulating the thou
sand and one rumors incident to this last new
departure. The story was current and generally
believed that one or two parties have Tor several

blackbcrries. Mems judgments are like their
watches No two may go the same, yet each be-
ueves his own. BY some it Is alleged that the
clique are intent on locking up gold In order to
depress stocks, and thus cover the short interest
which at present exists. By others the averment
Is made that the chief leader in the movement Is
