NEW ARREST HINTED
IN DEATH MYSTERY
Richmond Police Scout Theory
That Mrs. Bicoff Was
Slain by Bandits

Police of Richmond, Va, virtually
abandoned the theory that Mrs. Rosa
Bicoff, daughter of Benjamin Baran-
kin. 312 North Thirteenth street, was
fatally shot by two negro burglars re-
ported to have entered the store OF her
husband, Abe Bicoff, former Philadel-
phia merchant, the night of April 70.
The men were reported 20 have opened
fire on her when she attempted to pre-
vent them from overpowering her hus-
band and robbing the cash register.
The Richmond police are now work
ing on the theory that no burglars eli q
tered the place. They promise sensa =
tional developments Mt the coroner's in :
quest scheduled for tomorrow. 1t was
minated that white man is under sus =
picion and may be taken into custody
after the inquest.
Although Mrs. Bicoff fingered for n
day or two at Virginia Hospital after
being shot. the police say they were
unable to obtain any coherent statement
from her. Her principal thought, they
say, was about her children and what
| would become Of them in event of hei
death. The police say they have been
unable to locate any person in the
ncghborhood who saw the supposed
burglars running from the direction o
the store after the pistol shots.
