tons. which is believed by Argentine
officials to have secret mission. was
placed under arrest by Brazilian au-
thorltics at Bahia and denied entrance
to the country, according to passengers

Only 44 in Entire Borough
Will Have Sessions To-
day, Officials Say
Manhattan Is Menaced
Supply Sufficient for Only a
Day or Two, Says Educa-
ton Board Head

Another twcnty-four hours OF con-
tinucd cold. predicted by the Weather
Bureau, probably will be felt most
to-day in Brooklyn, where 14S out of
1872 schools will be closed because they
lack fuel and about 10000 children Of
the grades below the seventh will begin
an enforced vacation Of indefinite
length in homes that, for the most
part, are equally fuclless and cold.
No Manhattan schools will be closed,
according to Arthur S. Somcrs, the new
head of the Board Of Education. All Of
them have coal enough to last a day or
two more but their ultimate fate was
indicated last night by the Federal fuel
administration, which announced that
coal will be supplied first to the
homes that have none. If there is not
enough to go around, then the schools
must close
Other Quarters Sought
Divisional and district school super
intendeats Of Brooklyn searched the
borough Satu, day and yesterday for
outside accommodations for the chill
dren shut cut of the schools, but they
met only nominal success. They found
clubs, armories, churches, auditorums,
hotels and sthcr institutions almost as
badly Off for fuel as the schools.
One parochial school, st. Jerome, in
Flatbush, promised twelve school rooms
and an auditorium day for the use
of Public School No. So Charles W.
Lyon, superintendent of districts No.
81 and No. 3S, which includes Coney
Isl 10, io{1
head Bay and Borough Park, also found
Coney Island hotel willing to take in
the children of School No. 100
Principal Oliver Modorf of Public
School 1870 hoped to have the use of
the auditorums of St Marks Mctho-
dist Church and the Flatbush Congrc-
gational Church for his classes. There
was the question, however,. of fuel,
neither church having moro than
enough for heating once or twice a
week.
Mr. Lyon said last night that only
ten of the Thirty light schools in his
two districts woald open to-day. Su-
perintondent Jnnn ]. McCabe of the
Williamsburg and Greenpoint districts
announced he would have five out Of
twenty in session.
May Use Branch Libraries
Frank 7. Hill, chief of the Brooklyn
Public Library. offered ten branch IL
hraries, but these cannot be used until
the Library Board gives approval at its
meeting tomorrow night, and not then
unless moro coal can be supplied. Mr.
Hill conferred yesterday with Froder-
lck Gunnison on the subject Of coal
supply, but received only non-com~
initial answer. The fuel administra-
ton would do the best it could, he was
told
The forty-four schools which will be
in session to-day will accommodate
only the pupils Of the seventh and
eighth grades. Mr.. Somers said last
night that all the children would re
port at their schools this morning and
be told what to do by their principals
Dr.. Clarence +. Meleney, one of the
divisional supcrintendcnts. said some
of the teachers OF the closed schools
would be detailed at various branch H.
brarics this morning to care for the
chlidren who :.re sure to go to those
institutions because they arc warmer
than their homes.

1t has been suggested that
d frank word about clothing
mark-downs would be ap-
preciated by men who look
for Sales this time of year.
Well, to quote the small
boy who was asked by his
chum for the core Of his
apple, there amt goin' to be
none.
To go straight to the
facts:
CD We all know that
good clothing costs more
than it used to.
CD We also realize it s
going to cost still more be-
fore it costs less.
(3) There's been practi-
cally no falling off in the
demand for the better sort of
merchandise, in spite of the
forced rise in price. People
have learned the economy of
buying good things.
AS to revisions, that S an
other story!
Right now, the opportu-
nifty to pick up extra value
offers special inducement
20 men who, earlier in the
season, yearned for better
value than the raw costs Of
material and making would
permit us to sell at regular
price-this. Notwithstanding
that most of the woolens in
volved were purchased the
previous year.
True, a few thousand suits
by themselves are relatively
small quantity alongside
our annual volume, but re-
duced to SIS, they constitute
a mighty decent showing.
Other suits of still finer quality

TRIAL TRIP BY MOONLIGHT
tive Kept, and He Didn't Know
How to Run It.

An interesting incident of the first
Canadian railway, which ran from La
prairie on the St Lawrence river 10 St.
Johns on the Richelieu, under the name
of the Champlain & ST Lawrence rail
way, is related in FRONTS Railways Of
Canada.
The first locomotive used on the line
came from Europe, accompanied by an
engineer who, for some unexplained
reason, had it Gagged and Secreted from
public view. The trial trip was made
by moonlight in the presence Of a few
interested persons, and il is not de
scribed as a success. Later, the i'm
ported engineer made several attempts
to set the kitten-fOr such was the
nickname applied to this pioneer loco
motive-in motion toward st. Johns,
but in vain; the engine-prOved refrae-
tory, and horses were temporarily sub
stituted for it.
Meanwhile, the railway officials call
ed in a practical engineer from the
United States, who announced that the
engine, which was thought to be hope
Iessly unmanageable, was in good Or
der and required only plenty of wood
and water His opinion proved cor
rect, for after little practice the en-
CINE attained the extraordinary speed
Of 20 miles an hOur-YOuth's Com

WESTERN CANADA'S
CEREAL CROP
One of the Best Ever Harvested.

The cereal crop of Western Canada
for 1917 was the most valuable one
ever harvested; the returns from ali
classes of live stock have been equally
satisfactory. The wool clip was not
only greater than in any previous year,
but the price obtained was double that
Of 1915, which in turn was almost
double that Of the year before.
AS was the case in 1915 and 1915,
many farmers were able to pay for
their land outright with the proceeds
of their first years crop. Further evil
dence OF the prosperity Of Western
Canada is shown by the fact that one
in every twenty of the population is
now the owner of an automobile. If
the farming community alone is taken,
it will be found that the proportion of
automobile owners is still greater The
bank clearings of the leading cities of
Western Canada were consistently
higher than they were in the CORE
spending periods of 1916, and then they
were higher than the year preceding.
In Winnipeg $5O0,OOO,OOO more was
cleared in the IL months ending No
vember 80 than in the same months
year ago.
The entry or the United States into
the war has strengthened the bonds
between that country and Canada. We
are now working together for the
same ends. Those who are not fighting
are promoting a greater production of
fOOdstuffs. In this connection Western
Canada offers a wonderful oppOrtu-
nifty. Not only can larger quantities
of staple fOOdStuffS be produced, but
the cost of production is lower and the
remuneration greater than where land
is more expensive. Notwithstanding
the fact that the price of farm prod
ucts has doubled during the past three
years, there are millions of acres of
arabic land in Western Canada which
can still be bought at a low price.
Western Canada has an enormous
acreage prepared for seeding to wheat
in 1913. 1t is larger than in 1917, and
will probably surpass the record area
put into crop in the year 1915, when
the largest crop ever known in the
West was harvested. The year 1918
should also see q further increase in
live stock activity.
Farmers have been investing conSid-
cradle sums in cattle; the high prices
secured for wool and mutton have
opened the eyes of Western farmers to
the possibilities of sheep. and such was
the demand for breeding animals last
fall that it was impossible TO meet it
adequately; the campaign for greater
hog production is expected to yield an
increase of between % and 90 per cent
in 1913.
Those who are contemplating coming
TO Western Canada cannot do better
than come early in the spring when
they can put in crop and harvest it
in the fall. In this way they will be
able to achieve something that will
not only be of great benefit to them
selves, but also to the great cause for
which the Allies, including the United
States. are now fghting.-Advertise

Control Trade After War

Extension for a period of three years after the
close of the war of the extraordinary powers now
exercised by the government in the regulation of
imports and exports is the object of a bill now
before parliament, according to commerce reports.
This measure. entitled imports and exports (tem-
pOrary cOntrOD bill, presented by the president of
the board of trade embodies the most important
legislation thus far initiated with q view to pro-
tecting and controlling British trade after the
war. Unless extended, present powers of control
of exports and imports will to a great extent lapse
upon the cessation of hostilities
Section 1, paragraph 1 of the bill reads as fol-
lows:
''The lords of the council on the recommends
ton of the board of trade may by order prohibit
the importation expectation of goods of any
Glass; description, origin, produced or manu-
featured in whole or in part in any country or
place specified in the order, either generally or
from or to any country or place named in the
order, subject in either to such exceptions
0f any may be specified in the order and to
any licenses the grant of which may be auth
orized by the ORDER
While ordinary legislation has given authority
for certain measures of control in times of
peace the particular powers which it is desired
to make effective beyond the duration of the war
the following: Prohibition of importation of
goods of specified origin; prohibition of exporta-
ton of goods of any kind; prohibition of expor-
tation of all goods to any country or place spe-

some action of this nature is shown in a resoIu-
ton in favor of restriction, by tariff or other
