'NEW BILLY SUNDAY
 IS LOCKED IN CELL
Brooklyn Soul Saver Believed to
 Be Insane

Chanting phrases of an alleged re-
 ligious nature relative to the whole- sale saving of souls, Accosting chance passersby with Questions as to their nationality and desire to be saved. as we'll as disturbing tho neighborhood with his verbal demonstrations, Aaron
 Rutstein of 19 Oak street was taken into custody 1t Grand and Hawkins streets shortly after o'clock this morning by Policemen Charles F.. Anderson and Gustav Hellbsrg, be- ing locked in . cell for safe keeping over night. Police action resulted from . telephone call to Sergeant George, J. Kelly at police headquar- ters about :16 o'clock to the effect that An apparently densnted man was making . disturbance at the scene where the arrest was made.
 ss So violent did the prisoner become in . cell that residents in the neigh borhood of police headquarters tele- phoned complaints relative to the noise and that they were unable to sleep as tho chanting disturbed their normal rest. The solitary drunk" in the cell room also complained.
 2 Friends of Rutstein today request ed Chief Of Police William J. Raw lings to defer definite action until ale legged wealthy relatives of the victim in Brooklyn could be notified and arrive. They said Rutstein. Esless he becomes more violent, will be taken to Brooklyn institution and cared for. His rawlings today disturbed poe lice court session and tho routine Of the departments clerical and detec- tive departments. He contended abil- ity to save all of the true faith from their sins and said the war would not last after his arrival at the front as he would feat the Teuton hosts alive. z Seemingly insane cunning was dis played when. he refused to exercise his claimed powers of remission of sins upon others than those of the Jewish belief.

more than year ago. The, stock market was also somewhat influenced by anticipation of an early decision by the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion on the railroad rate question. It was expected that some lines would receive liberal concessions, while roads in other sections would have to be contented with smaller pay ments owing to varying conditions in different parts of the country. In consequence, some railroad shares showed considerable strength while others failed to: sympathize. In the industrial shares temporary weakness prevailed owing to uneasiness regard ing action of the government upon the price problem. Needless to say, ended should the government inter- fere by fixing prices; although 1t has been intimated that no harsh action, in this respect need be anticipated. Under the stimulus of war commodity prices, especially steel, continue to soar upwards. Demand continues to outrun supply, ,and excessive fnfia- ton naturally induces more or less caution. In business circles there is distinct undertone of conference, based upon our strong financial posi- ton and the certainty that the war wil. insure continued industrial ac- tivity in many directions. War ulti- mately means . large waste of natural resources, and 1t Is upon American supplies that Europe. as well as our selves, will mainly depend; hence their continued activity. Genera11 business continues fairly active, though slowing down as midsummer approaches. The crop Situation, with possibly the exception of cotton, is distinctly better than . month ago.
