MARCH WILL BE
 CHIEF OF STAFF
 FOR U. s. FORCES

Washington, Feb. Maj. Gen. Peyton c. March is slated to become active chief of staff of the army if Gen. Pershing can spare him from his present duty as chief of artillery of the expeditionary forces. No reply has been received yet from Gen. Pershing.
 The selection of Gen. March means that Mai. Gen. Bliss, chief of staff, is to remain permanently in Europe as the American military representative at the supreme war council, now sit ting in France.
 The permanent assignment Of General Bliss to the war council may result in a request to congress for authority to appoint an additional general. As Gen. March will be in fact head of the army, it is regarded as probable that he will be given both the rank and title of chief of staff later, Gen. Bliss being continued in similar rank but relieved as chief of staff to permit him to devote him. self exclusively to his work abroad.
 Gen. March is 53 years old and was born in Pennsylvania, from which state he went to the military academy

ES1IMATE FIRE LOSS

Four Summer Homes of Bridgeporters Burned to the Ground
 Today.

Fire, which started early to- day from an overloaded stove in the kitchen of the house oc- cupied by Roh Lis in Laurel avenue, Walnut Beach, destroy ed five. cottages in the residen- tial section of Walnut beach, and for a time threatened the destruction of the entire colony. It was finally brought under control by the Milford and Stratford fire departments, which responded, but not be- fore five houses had been en- tirely burned, with a total loss of about $1O,0OO to S12,0OO.
 Lis discovered the fire about 1:45 this morning in the kitchen of his home, and lost no time in getting his family of six out of the house. All escaped safely, but left nearly all of their clothing and household effects in the burning building. The flames spread rapidly, and burned with a fierceness which gave the impression the entire beach section was burning. Alarms were sent to the Milford de- partment, and also to the Stratford department, both responding, but ow- | ing to the extreme cold and the dis tance, not in time to save any portion of the Lis home.
 Just north of the Lis cottage is one owned by John J. Ryburn of 105 Whit ney avenue, his summer home This

Amsterdam, Feb. 2-BerIin evening newspapers just received here say that Wilhelm Dittman, Socialist member of the reichstag, was arrested when he attempted to address a crowd in 8 suburb of Berlin.
 Deputy Dittman'S name was linked last October with those of Deputies Haase and Vogtherr, also Socialists, with the mutiny in the German fleet. The Vorwaerts in its report of a reichstag debate quoted Herr Haase as saying the condemned sailors were accused of distributing pamphlets, given to them by Deputy Dittman, which had been passed by the cen- sor. The mutiny is reported to have occurred about eight months prior to the debate. Following the. debate reports quoting the Hamburg Fremdenbladt said the government had decided to prose- cute Deputies HaaSe, Dittman and Vogtherr in the imperial court in Leipzig for their alleged share in the sailors mutiny.
 A national demonstration is be- ing organized, in Germany as 8 protest against the arrest.
