The HnrIem River.

Certain interests in New York city have
been for years trying to get the Harlem
river filled in; and there was hearing
given on the project by the harbor lines
board of the United States engineers in the
city Tuesday. The Harlem, as most peo-
pie no doubt know, is a narrow estuary
which in old times made Manhattan island;
the chief argument for its obliteration
from the map is that the people who live
north of it want rapid transit and can't
have it SO long as this water must be left
open for navigation and only be crossed by
draw-bridges; real estate owners in the
upper part of the city likewise want it
done. The case is not like that of the
Back bay and the Charles river flats of
Boston, because the Harlem is deep tide
water and may at some time be of great
value for wharf privileges. The property
owners along its banks therefore enter Wig
orOus protest against its destruction, and
at the hearing the representatives of the
Astor Morris, Ogden and other big estates
put in arguments so numerous and weighty
that the two men who had advocated it
made small showing. There are now
many important industries located on the
Harlem, and the development of manufac-
lures that will need it as waterway for
supplies is entirely probable. Ship-build-
ing even is anticipated, and there is a good
deal done now in the way of launches and
boats. 1t was urged on the other hand
that to fill the 235 acres between Third and
Eighth avenues would add $4,000, 900
worth of reclaimed land and increase the
value of the surrounding property by
500, 900, 600.

ball Bearings on street Cars and an linz
pOrtant Invention.

There has been running on the Fitch
burg street railroad for several months a
car mounted on ball bearings which have
been in constant use and subjected to the
severest tests, and examination now shows
that not the slightest evidence of wear can
be found on either the bearing surfaces or
balls. Experts in metallurgy and mechan-
les say that the perfection of the system
and theory have resulted in a discovery
that will practically abolish friction. The
bearings were oiled with few drops of oil
at first and have run ever since without
being touched. TO perfect the principle,
the inventor has originated process for
making perfect steel spheres and also for
hardening them so they will not break.
Incidental to this hardening process way
has been found whereby low carbon steel
or iron is converted into steel of the finest
quality and of even temper and hardness,
at cheap cost, both of raw material and
conversion.

Railroad Trains TO he Run by Electricity.
The New York, New Haven Il Hartford
will probably be the first railroad to sub
stitute electricity for steam on a large scale.
This road is known to be constructing a
four-track line, and the two central tracks
are to be equipped with special reference
to the use Of electricity instead of steam to
propel both freight and passenger cars over
that portion of the line between New York
city and New Haven, distance of "a
miles. When the plant is ready, the dis
lance between these two cities will be COW
cred in go minutes. 1t is probable that a
light locomotive will be used, and that the
electric power will be taken from an over
head wire, as in the case of most electric
street cars. The central electric tracks will
be fenced in and there will be no grade
crossings The arrangements at stations
will be similar to those of the elevated roads
in New York city. A passenger cannot
cross the tracks except by bridge over
head or a tunnel underneath.
