Paris, Jan. 20.-Within few months
Brazil will have an army OF several
hundred thousand men ready to take
their places in France beside their
allies. and by the end OF this year
she will have assembled an army of
100000 men,, ..-
This was the statement made by
the BRAZILIAN yssnator,s De Melioseacb-
ado, In a recent Interview published
In the Petite journal. Brazil has q
population of 25,0oo,00O. An army OF
2.eoo,0oo men would bring in service
at least one-sixth of the male popu-
lation.
1T is a question of honor" declAr-
ed Senator De Mello Machado, "for
my country to come to the fighting
front in France in order TO take part
in the defense of the worlds liberty.
Germany seems to have considered
our declaration of war as a matter
Of small importance. She adopted the
same tactics With regard, to Great
Britain at the beginning of the con-
flict. and more recently with respect
to the United States. We must make
her change her tone.
Before the war our army and navy
had altogether about 10000 men. ]
do not exaggerate when ! say that
today Brazil. with a population OF
25.0O0,000 can easily raise an army OF
100000 men. This number we shall
get together by the end of the year.

ON GREGORY ORDER
Wealthy Pal Of Bernstorf Arrested
at Plattsburg,. N. Y.

Plattsburg, n. Y. Jan. 90
Adolph Pavenstedt, former associate
Of Count Won Bernstorff when the
latter was German Ambassador, and
Of Bolo Pasha, was arrested today
at the Lake Placid Hotel. The order
for his arrest was issued direct by
Attorney General Gregory.
Pavenstedt, who is a wealthy re-
tired private banker, expressed sur
prise when arrested, saying he
knew of no, reason for his appre-
hension. He was locked up in Jail,
awaiting an order from the Attor-
ney Generals Office as to the dis
position of his case.
Definite information as to the
charges upon which the arrest was
made were not divulged. From ad-
missions made by the prisoner un-
der oath last fall as to his associa-
tion with Count Won Bernstorfr.
Bolo Pasho, DR.. Dernburg and Count
Won Jagow, it was assumed some
form of espionage charge was the
basis for his Incarceration.

Final Instructions for
Heatless Days.

traitor. last night issued an appeal tc
the department stores of the country
to close their doors today.
Reports from various sections indi'
cate that. through misinterpretatior
Of the spirit of the original order. pro-
prietors of the large establishments ali
over the shutdown zone intend to
continue business today as usual. This
will be in violation of the real purport
Of the order. and the Fuel Administra-
ton makes an urgent request that al
stores avoid the use of coal or other
fuel for heat. light and power.
e. Store Heads Confused.
An amended order will be issued
within few dayss prohibiting the
opening of department stores on Mon.
days and making the prohibition tight,
Department stores form one Of the
largest industries OF the country,
They consume hundreds of thousands
Of tons OF coal daily. The Fuel Ad-
minlstration intended to shut them
down on Mondays with all of the other
industries, but by some inadvertence
, the words ''and light" were omitted
from the original order. This caused
confusion, because many store owners
were satisfied that they could KEEP
open. using light and power for eIe-
vators. but emitting the use Of coal
for heat. Other store oSners. who
wished to avoid the real spirit OF the
order, had an opportunity to keep open
against the real Instructions Of the
Fuel Administration.
Special ruling was made last night
by DR.. Garfield with reference to cle
food distributing stores, suspendil1
operation OF the order today. The fol-
lowing telegram was sent to State fuel
administrators:
