SCHENECTADY, N. Y, Oct. 27.— Speeding along at the rate of from fifty-five to sixty miles an hour, while scores of men prominent in railroad and electrical circles stood by, an electric locomotive which was built by the General Electric and American Lo- comotive Companies for the New York Central Terminal service in New York thoroughly demonstrated to-day that it will ultimately provide high speed motive power for railroad traffic. It is expected to develop a speed of 100 miles an hour. A short run was made down the track at about forty miles an hour and then the private car which brought the New York Central officials to the scene was coupled on and with W. K. Vanderbilt Jr. at the controller, four miles of track was traversed. With his hand on the controljer, Van- derbilt was in his element and he threw back the lever another notch, letting the engine forge ahead at sixty miles an hour. ONCE WEALTHY MAN MISSING Neil S.
