The Ffrst Electric Rnilrond.

The first regular electric line to be
established was at Lichterfelde Ger
many, near Berlin. II was only mile
and a half in length and opened for
traffic In May, 1881. The trains car
ried twenty-six passengers, at maxi
mum speed OF thirty miles an hour.
The first electric car to be operated
regularly in the United States was In
stalled by Deft on the Hamden branch
OF the Baltimore Union Passenger
Railway i'm August, 1856. That
was barely twenty years ago. So
great was the skepticlsm of the public

lent,

Maurice J. Dunnegan, a clerk In the
railway mail service, living at 20S
South High street, was arrested yes
terday afternoon and held in jail for
a bond Of $500 on a warrant charging
him with having threatened 10 kill Z
young woman employed in an Albu-
querque dry goods store. because the
young woman had persistently re-
fused to accept the attentions which
Dunnigan sought 10 bestow upon her.
According to the story Told to the pO-
lice by the young woman, who is e.
tractive and retiring. and who is
deeply worried by the affair. Dumb
gan has been seeking to pay atten-
ton TO her for more than a year. He
had been repeatedly told that his at
tentions We're unwelcome. but accord
ing to the young woman. could not
be discouraged. and when more siren
uous means We're taken to stop his ar
dent suit. he became violent and
threatening. Saturday night the
young lady feared to come down town
TO her work, expecting that Dunnigan
would wait for her. and asked for the
protection Of an officer. Officer Ken
nedy stationed himself at the store,
and Dunnigan soon after walked past,
looking in. h young lady did not
come to the store Saturday evening.
Sunday morning she appealed to the
police for protection, making the
statement that Dunnigan had threat
ened to kill her. A warrant was
sworn out and Dunnigan was arrest
ed and placed under a $500 bond TO
keep the peace by Judge Craig. Up
To q late hour yesterday afternoon
Dunnigan had not been able to fur
nish the bond. and was still i'm Jail.
The officers are inclined to think that
his ardent affection for the young
has unbalanced Dunnigan's
mind.
