A great sensation has been created in Jewish circles here as a result of the sudden arrest of Sigmund Schulman, a Jewish leader of the Polish Socialist Party. He was arrested in suspicion of having participated in the recent activities of the anti-government party for which a score of other anti-government leaders have been arrested, among them Herman Liebermann. Schulman was released until his trial after he agreed not to leave his residence.
Schulman is a brother of Boruch Schulman, a noted Socialist leader, who died in 1906 after he had thrown a bomb at the Czarist officer, M. Konstantinow.
