WATPRBURY, Conn., Apri! 23.—Quiet Prevails here to-day after the terror and turbulence of last night, as the result of the breaking out of thirteen myaterl+ ous fires in various parts of the city, one of them in the City Hall. The lat- ter was the only serious blaze, th» mu- nicipal building being wrecked. The Property damage in the other fires was emall. The total estimated loss r-sened today a Httle over $200,000. At @ meeting of the Board of Alder men called by the Mayor this afternoon it was voted to offer a reward of $600 for the arrest and conviction of each per- @on concerned in setting the fires. That the fires were started by incen- Giaries is the belief of the polis, and every effort 1s being made to apprehend those responsible for them. Three ar- rests were made during the aight, but the prisoners were subsequently re- leased, there being found nothing to connect them with the fires. To-day the Police were without @ clue apparently to the perpetrators. The three companies of the Connectt- cut National Guard called out to guard Public and private property about the! city remained on duty until daybreak, when they were ordered back to the | |.

No robberies had been reported to the Police this morning and this the author- {tes say would tend to weaken the theory that the fires were set by a gang intent on robbery, ———___ TURKISH ISLAND SEIZED BY ITALIAN WAR FLEET.
