Man Held In Lock Up Has Not
Spoken Since Friday Night

Speeches. and acting as one in a
deep trance, a man who is unknown
to the police has been sitting in a cell
at the lookup since Friday night fol-
lowing his arrest on a charge of sus-
picion. All efforts to get the man 10
either say or right anything have been
to no avail, although the police have
had persons speak to him in every
known language. The mar will eat
and seem to be sound physically, but
1t is thought that his mentality must
be slightly affected.
His arrest was caused by his queer
antics on Gordon street, between
Brighton and Madison avenues. which
block he paced for three hours at
a stretch. Alderman Wilson noticing
the peculiar actions Of the man, no.
titled police headquarters and had
him arrested.
The unknown M had been exam
ined by physicians also and he seems
to be suffering from no malady of any
kind whatsoever. The police are at
a quandary concerning the man, and
do not know whether he has escaped
from some asylum or not.
