FEAR TO RELEASE
 FAIRFIELD MAN IN
 NORWICH HOSPITAL
Habeas Corpus Action Insti. tuted for Petrosie Fails
 Tn Superior Court

On the ground that it would be un- safe to have him at large in his pres ent condition, William Petrosie, the Fairfield resident who threatened to kill his son a short time ago, has been Hospital for the Insane at Norwich.
 An effort was made to get him free on a writ of habeas corpus but Dr. H. M. Pollock, superintendent of the asylum, appeared before Judge Webb in the superior court yesterday after noon to oppose the motion. He de- cIared that when Petrosie was first brought to the as1um he said, ''I am going to kill my family and than my self" Within the past two weeks the patient appeared normal but Dr. Pol lock said the man was apt to be all right for a short time and then be- come violent. He did not think it wise to parole Petrosie at this time.
 pr. Morris Steinberg, declared he had examined Petrosie and found him sane. pr. William H. Donaldson of Fairfield, testified that complaints had been made to him by Deputy Sheriff Elwood and others of Fairfield, who regarded Petrosie as dangerous
 Acting upon the suggestion of Judge Webb, the three physicians took Petrosie into a side room for exauina- ton. Upon their return they said they would not recommend that Pe- trosie be released from the asylum. The court said he would continue the case for a few weeks so that the patti eHt might be under observation.

Summary
 OF THE War News

; Germany's declaration that the waters around England, Scotland and Ireland are. to be included in the war zOnes as interpreted in a statement issued today by the German embassy at Washing ton, contains no threat to Ameri- can shipping. The statement says that no change in Germany's attitude toward neutral ship
 ping is involved and that Ameri- can vessels carrying foodstuffs for tn eciviIian population of countries with which Germany is at war will not be seized. So far as neutral shipping is con- will serve merely as a warning ing those waters.
 The Austrian government an- nounced today that the attacks of the Russians in the Carpa- thians have broken down and that they had suffered heavy losses. In certain sections of the front the Austrians were on the offensive and the capture of 1000 more Russians captured.
 Should Austria gain a definite victory they would be freed from the menace of invasion.
 In Poland and west Galicia, the Vienna statement today says, the situation is unchanged. Petro- grad .despatches agree that a bat tie of almost unexaInp1ed fury is in progreas along the Warsaw front with the issue yet to be determined.
 Desu1tory fighting is in pro gress in the Argonne and A1sace regions but elsewhere in the western war zone activity is di- ninishing. The German at tack in Flanders, although 1ead- ing to several days of brisk fight ing, has mot developed into an important engagement ,and ap4 parent1y the onslaught has been abandoned.

GERMAN

Berlin. Feb. e-Arny headquarters today issued the following state ment:
 1.-TWO new French attacks against positions taken by the Germans north of Massiges remained unsuccessful. A French attack in the Argonne also failed.
 'tAlI attacks were repulsed. The Germans made 1000 prisoners and took six machine guns.
 ''EspeciaIly from the British but also from the French side the al1e- gation is repeated continuously that the Germans, to commemorate the Emperor's birthday, made attacks on a large scale, which were attended throughout with heavy reverses for the Germans All German official reports of events on the days in question prove that this allegation was invented with perfdious intent. Of course such fighting manners can not touch the Emperor's person but the German army headquarters would not dare to expose their business to shams.''

HOLD TWO MEN AS SUSPECTS IN ARSON ATTEMPT Police Believe Pair May Be Members of Famous CAT son Trust" of New York INSURED GOODS FOR
 FAR BEYOND VALUE Chief Mooney's Complaint Results In Sensational
 Disclosures

In the arrest last night of Anthony De1nar, S5. of Waterbury, and An thony Lanaartino, 30. of S41 Grand street, on technical charges, the State police think they have two former members of the famous larson trust which attempted insurance frauds amounting to thousands of dollars in New York recently. Denar and La nart1no are held in connection with @ suspicious frs at Lamartino's home on Feb. l.
 They were arrested by State Police men Robert Bridgnnan, Frank VirelH and Rowe Wheeler, following a report by Fire Chief Mooney Their inyes- tigations disclosed that Lamar1no, Bemar and Mrs. Lamartino held in surance policies in three companies, totaIing $1,7eO, on $4OO worth of fur niture in Lamartino's home-
 In Police Court to-day, their cases were continued in order that the state police may make further investigation There was no charge written into the warrants on which they were before court to-day, but it is possible that complaints of arson will be preferred shortly
 According to the police Lamartino and Demar after placing $4oO worth of furniture in the Lamartino home took out the following fire insuTance
 
 the name of Damartino, $T0O; from J. J. Fisher in the name of Demar, $500; from JIG. Bradley in the name of Mrs. Lanartino, $500.
 On February, l. the fire department was called to the Lamartino home. There was a lively blaze in g. bedroom. Fire Chief Mooney, on investigation. found circunstantial evidence that there had been inhammabIes in the room. He reported the case to the state police

Won Hindenburg Plans
 New Blow at Warsaw

London, Fob. 6-On his chosen ground to the west of Warsaw, Gem ! era Won HindenburR. the Gaermau8 commander, is continuing his costly 1unges to break through to the Polish capital At the same time the Russ sians, further to the north, have pressed forward and, after crossiuas the Bzura river, they are seriously threatening the Germans with an outhanking movement.
 Thus another great Battle for War saw is on. involving perhaps agreat-
 .er loss of life than any conflict in the war. The issue is still undecided but the Russians claim that the in ttiattve has passed to them although further vigorous German attacks are expected.
 The more complex and serategical- 'ly the more important struggle in the Carpathians is dragging on without any decisive turn. Broadly speaking it appears that in the western half of the battle region the Russians are making progress while in the eastern half they appear to have fallen back from the Lupkow and Beskfd Passes on prepared positions where they are attempting to stem the rush of large Austro-German forces
 The Russian counter blow on the massed assaults of Won Hindenburgfs men is the most interesting deveI- opment to British observers of the struggle dn the east It Overshad- 'ows for the moment the operations of the Russians in East Prussia. and it is taken in some quarters to indicate that they have ceased playing the role of merely holding their lines to the west of Warsaw and have de- ternined on an effort to expeI the invaders.
 The western war zone has seen vi1-- tuaIly no change during the week, but there are many reports of German preparations for renewed activity in Belgium. The German threat of a, submarine blockade may be a factor in this situation, the theory being advanced that the Germans expect the allies to attempt to force them back from the coast, with the idea of destroying their submarine base
 Dispatches from Cairo indicate that the Turks who attacked the Suez Canal were merely the advance con- tingent of three columns which ara struggling across the desert. The main bodies of the invading army should soon be heard from.

DRIVES ON TRACKS IN
 PATH OF TRAIN Milk Wagon Driver Picked Up Unconscious By Berk-
 shire Train Crew LONG HILL YOUTH PROBABLY WILL LIVE Flung Many Feet, Driver Falls In Soft Mud Be-
 side Tracks

Fred He1merech, 1s, of Long Hill, was dozing in his covered milk wagon as his two horses plodded onto the Housatonic railroad crossing in North avenue at Tt3O o'clock this morning, directly into the path of a fast-mov-. ing Berkshire train. The gates at the crossing had become clogged with ice. and the gatenaan, F. H. Meyers, was attempting to flag traffic with the usual danger signals, but could not avoid disaster1
 The locomotive of the train hit Helmerech's wagon and reduced it to spIinters. He1merech was catapulted so feet through the air and landed in the soft mud beside the tracks. The horses. unsettled, ran away
 Gateman Meyers. with Engineer Dolan, Fireman Cassidy and Conduc- tor Fitzsimmons picker up Helmerech, unconscious The ambulance was summoned, pr. Weldon responding on a hurry call. A cursory examination showed He1merech suffering from shock and possible internal injuries. At the hospital 1t was found that Helmerech's right leg was broken.
 He was removed to St. Vincent's hospital where it was said he was rest ing comfortably tE1is afternoon. He has a good chance to recover, if com plications do not set in.
 According to Gateman Meyers, ice had formed in the mechanism of the gates and they could not be lowered. He says he and several bystanders shouted to He1rnerech of his danger, but they could not rouse him. The train bore down on the team before anyone could act.
 Those who saw the wreckage of the team say it is little short of a miracle that He1merech was not killed out right The horses attached to the team were caught after they had run several hundred yards. Helrnerech is employed by his father.

The girl was almost hystericaI and it was with difficulty that she was revived sufficiently to tell her story.
 She almost collapsed when Ander- son was sentenced to two months in jail, on the charge of assault.
 According to Miss Harrigan's story on the witness stand, she and Edward He placed a pretty diamond ring on her finger and the young couple ap- parently were as happy anybody could ask. Then came difference and the two were estranged.

He claimed that he only loaned" it to the girl and would expect it's return, since their engagement was broken. The girl refused to give up the diamond and then, she says Anderson sought to recover it by force.
 She charged that Anderson grab bed her hands and attempted to yank the ring from her finger. Failing in this, she says, he tried to choke her, and scratched her face. He fin ally got the ring, fracturing a fling CT on her right and left hand in the attempt. He then left the house and was arrested in East Norwalk later in the evening"
 Miss Harrigan's parents are dead and she lives with her brother. She is employed as a clerk in g, local
