NEW YORK. Sept. "a Q.N.S0 .
With coffee traders studying war
maps of the revolution in Brazil
as a guide to trading operations,
coffee prices continued to sky
rocket last week on the New
Yorl. coffee and sugar exchange.
Each succeeding day Of the
revolution, which has been in

coffee supply situation in this
country more acute. Consumers,
roasters, chain stores and specula-
tors frantically competed last
week to buy spot coffee and fu-
lures.
, The most spectacular position
on the New York coffee and sugar
exchange was the December San
tos delivery which advanced 180
points, and yesterday closed at
1882 cents a pound. Prices last
week were the highest the ex-
change has recorded in three
years.

new peak for the past three years

BAT TIES
FIRE THREAT

Suggesting a year-round fire
prevention committee in every
rural community in the country,
Secretary of Agriculture Arthur
M. Hyde has outlined a national
program for rural fire prevention.
The program was issued in con-
nection with National Fire Pre-
vention Week, designated this year
by President Hoover for the week
of October GIG
Pointing to the huge annual
farm fire loss of $100,000,000,
nearly a fourth of the total, and
about $500 lives lost by fire in
rural communities, nearly a third
of the country's total, the secre-
tary said:
"This heavy tax is a toll
levied upon every days work."
Secretary Hyde urged coopera-
ton of local fire prevention COM
mittees, farm clubs, All clubs,
rural clergy, rural press, rural
teachers, women's groups, and all
agricultural organizations and
leaders to minimize the rural
fire toll.

ARREST ABROAD
HINTS KILLING
SYNDICATE

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, Sept. "a
G.N.SO.-Believing he has un-
covered an international murder
ring, Prosecutor Ray l.. Thomas
today acted to extradite from
Belgium a gallant foreigner with
a mysterious name who is reputed
to have connived with love
starved wives to kill their hus-
bands for their insurance money.
"Nicolai Nickolaidi" is held in
Brussels, Belgium, after confess
ing an unSolved Youngstown muir
der committed on october 81,
1929, and Prosecutor Thomas de-
clared today that the man and
his woman companion will be
brought back to this country, if
possible, because there is slight
discrepancy in their story.
Confessions Alleged
"Nicolai Nickolaidi" is already
dead. A man supposed to be
Nicolai Nickolaidi was the person
slain on October 21, 1929.
Brussels police declare that the
man they are holding has con-
fessed to several murders Of huS-
bands with insurance policies,
and Thomas said today that the
man they buried in Belmont
Park Cemetery three years ago
perhaps was just one of the VIC
tins.
Queer slashes we're found on
the temples of the "Nicolai Nicko-
laidi" buried here. The head was
crushed as though it had been
snapped by the jaws of a beast.
Having no one to absolutely
identify the victim, authorities
photographed him as he lay on
slab in the morgue.
With that, when the "Nicolai
Nickolaidi" in Belgium has been
returned to America, they will be
able to determine the truth.
Woman Gets Insurance
On the body of the man slain
here were found papers identity
ing him as the bearer of the
foreign name. And later woman
from Montreal claimed his $4,000
insurance.
That woman, who collected the
insurance by mail without ever
coming to Youngstown and also
wrote a tender note about her
husbands death, is believed by
Thomas to be the Henrietta Mic
kolaidi now held in Brussels.
The man, says Thomas, may
be Renee Copyn, a polite and
gracious steel mill hand who for
merly roomed with Nickolaidi. Of
ficials believe Copyn was the
paramour of Nickolaidi's wife.
Both men, it was later learned,
had taken out insurance policies
naming the same woman in
Ostend, Belgium. as benefactresS.
