8 NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, JUNE 12, 1874.—TRIPLE REAL ESTATE. The Desre of the Market for Rapid Transit. hie ea ai WOW TO DEFEAT THE OBSTRUCTIONISTS, ‘The week opened upon a quiet market, as was @pticipated, with few oferings. The dealings, however, are far irom representing the ful interest felt in the market, which is quickened by the growing assurances of a revival in other de- partments of business, so stimulating dealers to prepare taemseives for the new awakening con- fidently anticipated here in the fall; how cor- rectly has, of course, yet to be demonstrated. Thus a coniplete map of the new wards, prepared and issued under te direction of Potter Brothers qwreviously noticed in the HERALD), is now ready for distrioation at their office, It will be found an excellent work of reierence for persons contemplating investment in this sec- tion furnishing much of the very sort of imforma- tion, they would naturally desire., Thus it defines the boundaries of all properties in the district comprised, giving the names of the owners of the land, the elevation (one point is 253 feet above higo water mark), water courses, depth of water at mean low tide of the entire water front as shown on the map (including Hariem River and Spuyten Duyvil Creek), pier and bulkheaa lines, location of all post ofiices, telegraph oflices, fire alarm and police stations. The new wards remain part of the Twelfth United States Congressional district, First State Assembly district of Westchestér county and Sec- end State Judicial district. They form the Eighth School district of the city, Sixth Police Justice district and Tenth Judicial district. The laying out of new streets in the new wards 1s under the control of the Department of Parks. In this connection people are rendered every day more and more alive to the importance and necessity Of rapid transit, and men constantly ask the question more and more impatiently what can be done to obtain it, It will pe readily acknowledged that one of the principal reasons of the delay that has waited upon the de- sires of our people for rapid transit arises princt- paily irom the opposition of the numercus in- terests that thrive and prosper and grow rich and dictatorial from our shortcomings in that respect, We have first the surface railroads and numerous stage lines within the city, and in addition to these all the numerous raliroads outside of the city that approach this terminus; that is the railroads that have their termini respectively at Jersey City, Ho- boken and Long island City. This gives an im- mense weight to the opposition, and renders it al- Most certain that no scheme of rapid transit will ever be permitted to be established that has not run the gauntlet not only of opposition at Albany, Dut of denunciation bere and before the Governor, obstruction in the Courts, litigation and every de- vice known to chicanery or sharp practice to defeat or delay its fuifilment. Not much progress in this direction, therefore, 18 to be hoped for from any Legisiature that is lest simply to its own concep- tion of whatis right and proper in the circum- stances, It must be instructed as to what the people want in this respect, and so instructed tnat there can be no doubt of the popular will, We have yet seven months besore there will be another meeting o! the Legisiature, and in the meantime a geverai election, Suppose the various associa- tions representing THE REAL ESTATE AND TAXPAYERS’ INTERESTS of tis city, such as the East Side Association, the West Side Association, tne Citizens’ Association, the North End Association, the ‘taxpayers’ Asso- ciation and other Kindred organ 8, in the injerval appomt @ jomt coumittee to carry out the provisions of Mr." Eastman’s Dill, in so jar as may be, the same as if it had pecome alaw. ‘Thus ‘these several associations might appoint an Ex- ecutive Committee, having power to appoint Com- missioners tne same as under the bill and invite propositions looking to a system of rapid transit sulted to the needs of New York, with the under- standing that the plan and sctieme approved of by such Commuissiouers or Judges should receive the support of the united associations. It might, with the consent of the Police Commissioners, be pre- sented to the people lor them to vote on it at the next election, under the supervision of members of the associations. Receiving a popular endorsement, ag there 1s no doubt thus presented it would, the Legisiature at its next session might be asked to give it legal sanction. No delay wouid occur in tils, aS What the city mad authoritatively asked for could scarcely be withheld even by rural Soions, and the influence of THK OBSTRUCTIONISTS AND OPPOSITION WOULD SCARCELY DARE TO SHOW ITSELF against the popular will. The expenses necessary to carry out this purpose might be borne tempor- | arily by the associations, to be reimbursed subse- quently by the city or the successini competitor. ‘This would be @ short and easy method of over- coming @ great difficulty, of meeting a great pubic want abd msuring the success of a great pubiic work. It is what, in @ measure, 13s neces- sary to be done to reconcile opposing interests and silence opposition. No pian and scheme yor supplying rapid transit in this city, presented at Albany by private parties, no matter how perfect it may be, or honorable its projectors, will escape the stigma of being “a job"? in View oi the extent of the lorces opposed to any improvement of the kind; hence uw our people wouid hasten the day of relief they will take the matter in their own hands somewhat after the Thanner above suggested, and when they go to Albany go for what they want, not merely for what they can get. Apart from this matter of rapid transit it can but be repeated that THE MARKET FOR CITY PROPERTY is without interest in respect to dealings. Botld- ing operations are few m respect to dwelling huuses, Without at present much encouragement mm the outlook. AS general business, however, shoWs Many sighs Of recovery, an improvement in this respect may, perhaps, be noticed later. The mereasing chances of an adjournment of Congress without the passage of any radical finance bill such as would require new caiculauons in the future conduct ol business has a tendency to stimulate trade, Which is only a condition pre- cedent to investment in this market. In the new wards there is asteady quiet buying movement that shows the shrewd expectation of lar-seeing investors of an active market in that section whenever the reyived industries and commercial | activities Of the nation begin to be reflected in the our people. it will be recollected 1m this connection that provision has been made for THE BAKLY IMPROVEMENT OF THE HARLEM R wuke by the State Legisiature and vy Congre and vbat Lois will securerapid water transit to very heart of the newly annexed district.

Their Discharge Probable—important Decision of the Court of Appeals in Their Favor. A great deal of excitement was occasioned in Brook!yn political circles last evening by the report of the receipt by General Tracey of a manu- script decision of the Court of Appeals favorable to the convicted Charity Commissioners. When General Tracey, as counsel for the Commissioners, raised the point that the law under which the alleged offences of the Commissioners were com- mitted had been repealed, Judge Daniels over- railed the objection on the ground that the statute of 1828 remedied the matter, Yesterday General Tracey submitted to Judge Damels, @ manuscript decision of the Court of Ap- peals, in support of his motion, and it is stated that the decision is so clear and decisive that the Judge will this morning discharge the Commis- stoners, Last night’General Tracey said that when he moved to dismiss the proceedings on the ground that the law had been repealed, the District Attor- ney cited a decision, hoiding under the act of 1528 the repeal of a law did not take away the pow- er to convict. On the authority of this decision, the Court declined to dismiss the case. General Tracey tmmediately telegraphed to Albany for information in regard to the matter, and was injormed that the decision was afirmed for an entirely different reason. This morning he Will move for an arrest of judgment on the ground that the act of 1871, under which the Commis- sioners were convicted; had been repealed. Juuge Daniels yesterday reiused to give the reporters a copy of the decision.

They recommended the members of the organiza- tiou not to comply with this regulation. and the engagement of a lawyer to deiend them in any case arising out Of non-compliance with the man- date of the Board of Health, The recommenda- tion wes adopted. ANOTHER NEWARK CONSPIRACY OASE, “The Culmination of a Series of Frauds”’—How the Gardner Heirs Were Fleeced Out of 940,000. The triai of a most singular cage of criminal conspiracy involving the liberty and reputation of several persons was commenced in the Essex County Court, at Newark, yesterday, the princi- pal defendant betng Gilbert T. Reisbeck, a resident of Hudson county. Bertram and Edwin M. Cook, of Morris county, charge of attempted subornation of perjury one George W. Gardner. Bertram and Cook are hiding away somewhere in Newark, defying all attempts to reach vuem oy Governor Parker’s requisition, signed by Governor Dix. Yesterday Davis ap- eared in court and pleaded guilty, aud turned State's evidence against Reisbeck and the others, |,The facts of the Case, as set forth in his opening address to the jury by the County Prosecutor, Colonel Abel, are as follows:—In New York, in 1869, one Jonn Gardner died without a wilt, leaving property valued at $40,000 to be diviaed between bis three brothers, of whom Geor; Gardner was one, and @ sister, named Mrs. Flynn. Gard- ner, instigated by the parties named in the indict- ment, concocted A PLAN TO CHEAT HIS RELATIVES out of their inheritance, and conveyed the prop- erty to Reisbeck, having atranged shat the latter, with Garduer and Bertram, should divide the spoils. Reisbeck having acquired this property,’ speculated with it and grew rich, and when Gard- ner and Bertram wanted their share he refused. A number ol suits were then commenced in New York, Brooklyn and tn New Jersey by Gardner against the others, who also began counter suits, which were followed by indictments, and these parties are now under indictment in Kings county, New York, for conspiracy. Finally the case came up in hew Jersey, and Gardner and Cook were arrested and incarcerated in Morris county for perjury, and | Cook in turn bad Gardner ioprisoned ou the same | charge. Meanwhile Gardner became so troubie- some to Relsbeck and the Others thata pian is fad to have been jaid to secd him to prison.

Inspection ot the Stevens Battery. The members of the American Society of Ctvil Engineers, holding @ convention in this city, yes- terday morning visited the Stevens Institute of, Technology tn Hoboken, and were conducted over the building by President Morton and the profes- sors of the institution. ‘The visitors were first shown into the physical laboratory, where, ip addition to various instruments in the cases, were exhibited several newly introduced appliances for demonstrating physical laws, Plaleau’s apparatus for showing the equiv librium of liquid masses and the invention of Simon (de Metz) illustrating the laws of capillar- ity, were first shown. Then Hipps’ chromogscope for measuring time with accuracy to the 1-1,000th of @ second; also the apparatus of Lissajous, Helmholtz and others for illustrating the laws of vibration: and @ large galvanic induction coil showing @ spark twenty-one inches in length, Many of the imstruments were exceed- ingly deilcate. The visitors walked over the workshop in the basement, where the students are taught the rudiments of practical mechanics. In the brsement are also located the batieries and boilers. The lecture rooms of the institute were President’s lecture room. The route then led through the photographic room with its cameras, “dark room,” baths, developers, &c. The tour ended in the library. THE STEVENS’ BATTERY, . The civil engineers then proceeded in a body from the Institute to visit the Stevens’ ironclad battery, which has for 80 many years been an ob- This enormous ironclad, of the monitor pattern, has been in the course of construction for twenty-six years. The designers were the late Messrs. Robert L, and Ed- win A. Stevens, and, upon the death of the latter, (his brother having died some years previous) in 1871, 1t was left by will to the State or New Jersey, When the vessel was first commenced there were very few iron vessels afloat. The Messrs, Stevens proposed to build for the government an iron shot- proof vessel for the defence of New York Harbor, and presented the following ne of specifi- cations, which were accepted:—Length, 250 leet; beam, 40 feet; depth midships, 28 feet; number of boilers, 4; accessory engines, 2; con- densing he tear 4; horse power, 900; ope pro- pelier and shafting; protection against snot, 43, inches of iron ariaor. There were to be seven guns of the heaviest cailbre then known, viz., 64 pound- ers. The projectors proceeded to construct a ves- sei upon the above plan, and bad advanced a con- siderable way upou the work, when, in 1851, they were brought to a stop by the government informing them that as very great and important changes had taken place in ord- nance the vessel they were building would not be shot proof, This brought the worg to a stand still, and it was not until 1856 that it was resumed upon another pian which they proposed to the govern- ment, ‘The following Were the 1856 specitica- tions:—Length, 415 eet; beam, feet; depth mudships, 32 feet 4 inches; number o! boilers, 10; horse power, 8,624; two propellers and shaiting ; accessory engines, 9; condensing en- ines, 8; protection against shot 6% inches of ron, The armament was to consist of five 15- inch guns, each weighing twenty-five tons and capable of projecting a shot of 425 pounds, and two 10-inch rifle guns, ‘he government advanced from time to time from the appropriation 000. When the war commenced, the builders endeavored 10 hasten the work and solicited turther aid trom the :government, but, this being reiused, the work came to @ stand still. Mr. KE. A. Stevens, bein, in ili health, was compelied to’ visit Europe, and while there the work was stopped. alter bis death in 1871 the State of New Jersey, to whom it was leit, called in the services of General Georye B. McClellan tor the purpose of completing the vessel. After @ careful examina- tion he reported to the trustees that the vessel could not be put afioat to | make 4 serviceable war ship under the | specifications. It was then determined to remodel her with the following result:—Length, 401 feet; beam, 45 feet; depth, 2444 feet; engines, 4; boll- | wer, 6,000, It was | ers, 10; 9 twin screw; horse also designed to give hera side armor of iron, 10 inches thick; @ deck armor of 144 incnes anda turret with 18 inches of solid iron. The side | armor backing now on is 4{feet Of oak and yeliow ine. The General also added an inner coat- ing of iron one inch thick. The ordnance was be two 20-iuch smooth bore . guns, projecting @ solid shot of 1,040 pounds, or two wrought iron 12-inch rifes, throwing a 600-pound shot and capabie of panera ane fliteen Her speed ts estimated at iourteen knots per hour. ‘the sum already expended upon her has been $2,500,000, and 1t is Calculated that it Will take about $800,000 more to put her afloat. The engines were built at the Delamater Works,and are models of compactness, reflecting credit upon their workmauship, One of the remarkavle features which give her a iacility oj manceuvring, a8 they are under the control o! separate engines, They can be revolved in opposite directions, thus allow. they moved up Broadway the passers by turnea and gazed upon the trio, while the street gamins, whose numbers §noreased perceptibly at every step, ind tm loud tauguter and jeering remarks, r fellow seemed to re- alize the fact that he was placed in @ strange, predicament, and that there were some people sttil left in this world who had not as yet be- come converts to the idea of amalgamation, At Houston and Broadway the trio turaed into that street, expecting thereby to rid themselves of the terrible annoyance which they were undergoing at the mands Of the lookers-on. Unable to bear the taunts of hia irrepressiple followers, the husband assumed @ belligerent tone, and with @ formidable umbrella made War upon the enemy. The contest was witnessed by a large crowd, but it was not until a sturdy policeman appeared upon the scene that the man and his wife were allowed to wend their way in peace, POLICE TRIALS, Dismissal of the Officers Charged With Robbing the Ragpicker in Fifty-second street. President Gardner, of the Board of Police, pre- gided at the trials of policemen yesterday. Com- plaints of citizens against officers were examined into, Patrolman §, Sheehey, of the Nineteenth pre- cinct, Waa dismissed from the department after a faretul and patient hearing of his case. He and OmMfcer George Riley, of the same precinct, were charwed by Nicholas Newbeck, a ragpicker, with accosting him st five o’clock on the morning of the 23d of May, on the corner of Filty-second street and Fourth avenue, and robbing nim of $5. Newbeck swore that he had just left the shanty in which he lives ‘and was going to his usual avocation when, on the corner of Fifty-second street, he was met by both officers. They stopped bim, one getting on either side—Sheehey on the left, Riley on the right—and asked himw where he was going to. He answered, “To pick up my living.” “Have you got any money there?” said one, but which of the two omMcers it was he was unable to say. Sheehey, however, putting his hand into his pocket suid, “Let's see.” The officer, he alleged, took the pocketbook out and passed it to Riley to examine. He lookea into tt and tossed it mto the basket hanging on Newbeck’s pack. There were in it, besides the $5 bill, which was abstracted, Newbeck charges, during this legerdemain, three five cent Pieces, a ten cent stamp and akey. The small matters were left in the book, but the bill leit with the officers, and he was left in RispIA. Five dollars being @ large amount of money to him, re- presenting MUCH TIME AND VAST LABOR, he felt its loss very severely, more stil: from the manner in which it was taken. He moved along Bethe avenue to Fifty-third street as soon as the officers released him, and passed along that thoroughlare musing much at the extraordinary circumstance. Seeing a Mr. Hess, who keeps a lager beer saloon on the street, inthe act of taking down his shutters, Newbeck related tne affair to him, adding that he thought it a strangely fantastic freak on the part of the officers. Mr. Hess agreed with bim im this, and advised him to go to the station house. Newbeck left the saloon apparently with that intention, and Mr. Hess con- tinued th@work of getting his place in order, Happening to look up towards Filty-third street shortly alter Newbeck’s departure, he saw him up the street, being driven on by Oficer Sheehcy, When Newbeck was gone Sheehey returned to the lager beer saloon, and asked Hess what Newbeck had told him. Hess explained, and Sheehey said, “Oh! nonsense; you don’t believe him.” New- beck, after a good deal of trouble, managed to get to tne station house. He reported what had oc- curred to Sergeant Hamulton, who was in charge at the time, The sergeant detained bim until Captain Gunner got to the station house at eight o'clock. Captain Gunner listened to the rag- ences story, and then called Riley down stairs. lewbeck at once Fr ized him as one of the ofiicers, and he was sent into the patrolman’s room to await the result of the examination. The iden- tification of Sheehey was not so easily arrived at, but it was finally accomplished by Hess, a man named Diess (employed by Steinway & Co.), and Newbeck. Captain Gunner conducted both men to the Central office, explained the case to President Gardner and he sus- pended them both. This action was reported to the Police Justice of the district, and he decided Lo ged aoe his examination until the Police Court looked into the matter. The District Attorney also determined to await the resuit of the same investigation. Riley did not wait lor that; he fled the city on the Monday following the Saturday on which the alleged robbery was committed. He leit a wife and five children behind him COMPLETELY DESTITUTE. Sheehey stood his ground and was placed under $3,000 bail. The case had been set down for trial on last Thursday, but was postponed in conse- quence of the oar of getting some of the witnesses. President Gardner said, in finishing the investigation, “‘Sheebey, I dimiss you from this department, which I believe you to have uis- graced eat gut.” Officer Robert Ruberts, of the Eleventh precinct, living at No. 752 Sixth street, was complained of lor using profane and indecent Janguage to Mrs. Moore and her daughter, who lived next door to him, The evidence plainly showed the officer's nts and the Court recommended him to the oard for dismissal. Mr. Fisher complaimed that OMcer Montgomery Ditmar ciubbed and arrested him wituout cause. The evidence proved that Fisher had jumped the fences at Jones’ Wood to get into the grounds with- out paying, and that was the reason of his being taken into custody. The case was dismissed, 4 DISTINGUISHED VISITOR, A Russian General inspects the Navy Yard. Major General Solokof, of the Russian Imperial | Army, visited the Brooklyn Navy Yara at noon ing her to turn upor her “heel,” which would be of importance in @ narrow channel. By an act of | the last Legislature ol New Jersey it was decidea to offer her at public sale, which will take place on November 2, Those having charge ol the vessel | have secured the services of Professor R. H. | Thurston, of the stevens Institute of Technology, | as the consulting engineer, and he is now engaged in making measurements and preparing an elaborate paper upon it, which is to be published in pamphlet jorm in English, Frenci and German, The Commission Of Sale appointed by the Legisia- ture consists of Governor Parker, Vice Chancelior Dodd and the executors of Mr. Stevens—viz., Messrs. W. W. Smippen and S. B. Dod, of Hoboken. After partaking of a lunch on the deck of the mainmoth crait the entire party proceeded to the pier adjoining the Kagie steamship whari and ; there embarked on the ferryboat Farragut, ten- dered by the Unton Ferry Company. THE BATTERY (MPROVEMENT, The Farragut ucaded down streum and soon reached the Battery, where all disembarked to inspect the !mproveme. ts making in the sea wall. ‘The stone pier and the method of constructing the Béion blocks was carejully examined. TYE BAST RIVER BRIDGE next commanded the attention of the engineers. The landing was made near the base of the Brook- lyn tower. and, while many proceeded to the an- | chorage foundation, alarge number ascended to | the top of the tower. The top of the stone Jayers, where the last arc begins, is | reached by twenty-four fights of stairs, each Might giving an ascent of ten feet. The view irum the top is one of wondrous beauty, including the Buy, the entire island of Manhattan and most of Brooklyn. At tne giddy neight of 240 feet it seemed as if one could see down the smoke- stacks Of the steamers on the river, and ‘Irinity church spire seemed to be the only companionable ‘Object in the great city of New York. THE HELL GATE IMPROVEMENT. The excursionists then took steawer tor Hallett’s Point, to visit the Hell Gate excavations, This work has been 60 olten described that all appeared to know all about it and seemed only to go into the tunneis or “headings” tor the purpose of hav- ing it to say tney had been there. It 1s estimated that about four-fMitis of the excavauon Is finished and that there is nothing wanting to push the work to completion, save the appropriation await- ing the action of Congress. The visit was lull of interest to ihe engineers present trom a distance, | The steamer conducted the party to Harlem | bridge about five o'clock, whence they took a train w the Grand Centrai depot, inspecting tue Fourth avenue improvement on the way down, DINNER AT TAMMANY HALL.
