MYSTERIOUS FIRES
IN EASTERN Town

New Britain, Conn. Feb. a.
New Britain is under martial law to-
day with two companies of state
guardsmen patrolling its streets fol-
lowing nine simultaneous fires In
different parts of the city last night.
Two men are under arrest under sus-
picion Of having started the fires.
Repairs are being rushed to the cleo
trio fire alarm system, which broke
down when several persons rushed
to boxes and turned in simultaneous
alarms as the fires began to light
up the skies.
All local fire departments are still
at work early today quenchine
smouldering embers that threaten
ed to start over again. Volunteer
engine companies from Hartford,
Bristol. Waterbury and Plainfield,
however, have been sent home.
New Britain has many manufactur-
ing plants which have been making
munitions for the allies. The belief
was expressed that some fanatic, hop
ing to stop their manufacture, set
fires by means OF time bombs, but
no evidence Of bombs has been found.
A tenement house, a garage three
residences and business block were
raked by the flames. The damage
is roughly estimated at about $780,
600.
The fires started early in the night
in tenement house, containing
many families. Built OF wood. II was
rapidly consumed. In habitants pour
ed down the single stairway in the
house. Everyone left safely, but fire.
men took several from upper win
dows and by means Of ladders.
While they were working, other
alarms began to come in and soon
all apparatus was working. Police
and fire departments were totally
unable to cope with the situation and
appeals were sent to nearby cities
for assistance.
Crowds began to march up and
down the streets. Mob hysteria was
growing in the air and Police Chiel
Rawlings asked Mayor Quigley fol
militia. Companies and l., First
infantry. were called out and soor
had the crowds under control.
BY midnight all blazes were out
and the city quiet No further out
breaks, It was said, are expected, but
the troops are kept on guard as {
matter OF precaution.

EXPECT BREAK WITH GERMAN
ALLY OVER THE sUBMAR-
INE CAMPAIGN
TURKS ALSO LIKELY TO FOLLOW
Negotiations Pending Between Coun-
tries Expected to Be Deter
mtned Within Few Hours

Washington. Feb. 22.-The Aus
tro-American situation today held
the center Of the international war
stage.
The climax Of this silent drama,
which has been going on since the
United States broke with Germany.
appears to be at hand.
Within 4S hours, 1t is now gen.
orally believed. this government will
know whether the scope of its sew
cred diplomatic relations Is to be ex-
tended to Austria-Hungary.
The state department and White
House say nothing as to what is go
Ing on behind the scenes. When
the curtain falls, however, one Of the
most dramatic and interesting stories
in the worlds history will be writ
ten-the story Of great nation
struggling to restrict the extension of
the great war and another great ma
ton trying ut once to please a power
ful friend and at the same time sup
port an ally.
OF what transpired between the
United States and Austria-Hungary
during the last Is days, the state
department will not say. 1t will not
even admit the authenticity Of the
aide memoir made public in Vienna,
asking Austria to clear up her POSI-
tion on Germany's U boat decree and
her own pledges to this government
on U boat warfare.
The Austrian government is por-
trayed as struggling hard to pre-
vent the threatened break. That she
must and will support the German
decree IS the official fear here.
Should she do this. 1t is taken for
granted President Wilson will i'm
mediately order passports to Aus
:rian representatives here, and re-
quest the withdrawal OF United
States Ambassador Penfield from his
post in Vienna.
1t Is felt certain that a break with
the other Germanic allies would
shortly follow. While the great pan
tomime goes forward. it is allowing
time for movements of thousands of
Americans from central power coun-
tries.
