SPY SCARE HITTING
 BRAZIL WITH FORCE;
 STRANGERS WATCHED

RIO GRANDE, Do Sul, Brazil, Feb. ! G-BraZil, now that it has entered the war, is having it's spy scare and it has become general even more so than in some of the other bellig- erent companies. It is only neces- sary for a person to be a foreigner and stranger in any Brazilian town to become the object Of suspicious regard by the people and even of police surveillance
 Orders have gone out from Rio de Janerio for the arrest of large num- bers Of Germans, many of whom ap- pear to be innocent business men, al though there is no doubt but that German espionage is well organized in Southern Brazil Spies have been reported to be especially active in the State of San Paula and the gov ernment has taken rigid measures for watching all suspects there.
 As soon as the government began those measures of precautions, how ever, a large number of rich and well known German business men who under suspicion of being German government agents, succeeded in es- caping into the Argentine Republic with whatever secrets they may have had

AN UPHEAVAL IN
 POLICE FORCE OF
 NEW YORK CITY MADE

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-An upheaval in the New York Police Department, the most sensational in years, was caused by Mayor John F. Hylan, when he demanded the resignation as Police Commissioner of Frederick H. Bugher, whom he appointed to the office on January l.
 MT. Burgher complied promptly with the demand and established a record for brevity of services as Pc. lice Commissioner. He had served just 22 days
 Mayor Hylan established another precedent when he appointed a uni formed man as acting Commissioner selecting for the post Lieutenant Richard E. Enwright. The law which provides for civilian head for the Police Department was complied with by giving Enright leave of absence.
 Enright, for many years head of the Police Lietuenants" Benevolent Association, has had a picturesque career On the force. He is 46 years old, and was appointed a patrolman in 1896. He reached the rank of lieutenant nine years later, but nev- CT got beyond that grade. He is bachelor and lives in Brooklyn, and is reported to be affiliated with Tammany Hall.
 The ostensible reason for the re- moval of Burgher was his failure to suspend members of the motor cycle squad on charges of leyying tribute on motorists accused of violat- ing traffic regulations. Trial of these officers by the Commission CTS was recommended in a present. 'ment handed up by the grand jury, which investigated police laxity in connection with the murder of Ruth Cruger in the bicycle shop of Alfredo Cochi, which was rendezvous for motorcycle police ~
 Burgher declared. however, that he was Hbout to place these men on

UNPRECEDENTED DRIFTS

DOUGLAS, Feb. 6. - People who have resided here for 9 years say that never before has the snow been so deep on the streets. While the age inclearing a trench in the mid de of the streets, the sides of the trench are from eight to ten feet deep all over town. But little incon- vsnience is experienced, however, as nearly everyone keeps his own side walk cleared and has narrow trench leading to the street. Unless the spring is very warm, it is believed there will be snow lying around un- til we'll along in the summer.

 Mayor Hylan made it clear in his letter that the Police Departments failure in the Kruger case had con vinccd him that q system of graft still existed, and that he would not tolerate as the head of the depart ment any man who was not of the same opinion.
