BRAZIL TO PUSH COFFEE HOUSES Plans Advertising Campaign to Increase Trade in I United States. I WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The United states, long recognized as the largest Eittee consuming country in the world, |.>ay, as a result of nation-wide prohibition, greatly increase the consumption of this beverage by the establishment of the once popular “coffee houses” ot Kngland in this country to supplant the "bar." This Is by no means an Improbability, and the Brazilian governkment, alive in the possibilities for ex- • ansion of the coffee trade, has decided Bo spend a largo sum of money during next four years in an extensive adcampaign in the United States. PP|rding to Information received by the of commerce. Receipts approximating normal, higbrecord shipments, and Increased average prices mark the movements of coffee to and from the United States in the fiscal year 1919. Receipts exceeded those ot Ihe “peace” year 1914 by only 4.5 per rent and were 8.2 per cent below those of 1912, the last full year of the war; •-hipmentß (exports and re-exports to countries and sales to noncontinguous territories in the United States'), on the other hand were 87.1 per cent greater in both quantity and value than In 1918. The average price of the coffee received in 1919 was 13.7 cents a pound, contrasted with 9 cents in 191S and a shade over 11 cents in 1914. The average price of the coffee (both domestic and foreign) shipped was 18.6 cents, compared with 13 cents in 1918 and 16.1 cents in 1914. As regards domestic raw • offee alone, the average export price was 19.5 cents in 1919, 14.5 cents in 1918 and 16.2 cents in 1914. RECEIPTS SHOW ROOD GROWTH. The receipts of coffee into continental United States during the fiscal year ending June SO, 1919, from foreign countries aggregated 1,051,899,810 pounds, valued at $144,069,369, an increase of 4.5 per cent in quantity and 0f39.3 per cent in value over the pre-war year of 1914. The bulk of the coffee arriving in the United States comes from South America, chiefly Brazil. Central America, Mexico, the West Indies. Hawaii and Porto Rico supply what are known as mild coffee; from Aden and Arabia comes the familiar Mocha coffee, and the Dutch East Indies send Java coffee. Brazil has dropped from supplying approximately 75 per cent of the imports of coffee into the United States in 1914 to 58.3 per cent of the receipts in 1919. This loss was partially compensated by the increase in imports from Central America and the West Indies. CENTRAL, AMERICA INCREASES CARGOES. Coffee cargoes from Central America Increased from 40,000,000 pounds In 1914 to 158,000,000 pounds in 1919; those from Hayti rose from 2,000,000 pounds In 1914 to almost 48,000,000 In 1919. and those from other West Indian Islands from 2,500,000 In 1014 to 9,000.000 in 1919. The arrival of almost 8,000,000 pounds of coffee from Japan was a feature of the last year. In 191S the United States re-exported 77,720,366 pounds of foreign coffee, valued at $18,913,404, as against 9,574,496 pounds, valued at $1,276,227, in 1914. Exports of Hawaiian and Porto Rican raw coffee for 1919 amounted to 3i,224,166 pounds, valued at $7,252,294, and of roasted and prepared coffee 5,564,701 pounds, valued at $1,194,413. The foreign coffee re-shipped from the United States goes principally to northern Europe and to. France. Re-exports in 1919 of 21,000,000 pounds to France. 20,000,000 pounds to Belgium, 10,000,000 pounds to Denmark, amost 8,00,000 pounds to Sweden, and more than 6,500,000 pounds to Norway are particularly interesting when compared with the •quantities sent those countries in 1914.
Holds Job 32 Years; Never Gets Raise COLUMBUS, 0., Jan. 9.—Probably the oldest employe of the Ohio state government, both in point of age and length of service, is Capt. Orrin Henry. During the past thirty-two years be has held the only position he ever occupied in the state’s government—land clerk in the state auditor's office. He receives the same salary today that he received when he took the position In 18S7. Despite the fact that he is in his eightieth year, Capt. Henry almost every morning walks to the statehouse from his home on the east side. His exceptions occur usually on mornings that are rainy or when ice is dn the sidewalks. That his handwriting has not been affected by the ravages of Father Time is disclosed by a comparison between a letter written twenty-five years ago and those he is writing today.

- YANKS BEATEN UP IN CAPT. DETZER’S OFFICE, FORMER SOLDIER SAYS
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.—Further testimony of alleged inhuman treatment ot military prisoners by men under command of Capt. Karl Detzer of Ft Wayne, Ind., was introduced by the prosecution yesterday when rebuttal to the captain’s court-martial began. W. A. Sullivan, a private stationed at Camp Dix, N.

Booze Raid Arrest in Home Prompts Hunt for Big Still
.After capturing a quantity of moonshine whisky yesterday afternoon and arresting J. C. (Dave) Miller, who admitted ownership of the whisky, police went on the trail of a big whisky still said to exist in the White river bottoms near where Eagle creek empties into the river west of the city. They failed to find the still. Receiving a “tip” that Miller had disposed of whisky in Indianapolis, Sergt. Bates and Mounted Officers Shine and Kurrasch went to Miller’s home this afternoon. He waa not at home. A womau told the police that Miller had gone to Indianapolis, but would return. Upon his return he was arrested. Searching Miller’s home the police found aV six-gallon Jug of moonshine, corn whisky, a gallon Jug filled with whisky, several half-pint and pint bottles filled with it, lead colls and other materials such as are used In stills, and eight gallons of sour mash. Miller denied that he owned a still, but admitted that there was one hidden away In the river bottoms. He said that
GOMPERS CALLS BOSTON POLICE' HEAD AUTOCRAT BOSTON. Jan. 9.—President Samuel Gotnpers of the American Federation of Labor, made a' bitter attack upon Police Commissioner Curtis yesterday afternoon, terming him as a ‘‘reactionary autocrat’’ and placing on his shoulders the blame for the disorders 5f the first night of the Boston police strike. The s'tack was made in a speech at the chamber of commerce luncheon with dozens of his hearers shouting “No,” and stamping their feet in disapproval. MUNCIE SWINDLE MA Y BE THRILLER Two of Former Gang Members of New Film Company. How would you like to see the jolly little band of swindlers who lifted more than $150,000 from twenty-one victims in the qity of Muncie within eleven months , In operaWbn right before your very eyes? Tt became known today that several of the men who operated at Muncie are considering the 'advisability of staging their fake fight swindle scheme in front of the movie camera and distributing the film for what It might bring them throughout the country. Incorporation of the Crescent Film Company with capital of $25,000 at the secretary of state's office yesterday with Hubert McGinnis and Joseph W. Engleton as two of the three directors lent color to the report. Neither could be located to verify the story, but their friends discussed It freely. McGinnis played various parts in the swindles. For a time several years ago he was a prize fighter, known throughout the middle west. He was taken into the swindle gang as one of the pugilists who engaged in fake prize fights as part of the scheme to par tthe wealthy victims from their coin. For a short time he
Kinney’s for Rubbers A most advantageous arrangement with the United States Rubber Company enables us to offer their standard grades of footwear at prices which are really lower than you have to pay for the ordinary kind. Everybody knows that “United States tires are GOOD tires. ” United States rubbers are “chips off the old block.’ ’ If you’ve never tried their “Federal” or “Candee” grades of rubber footwear, you ’ll be surprised at the service to be had from a pair of GOOD rubbers. We have them in the popular lasts for men, women and children, at prices that were set. before the January increase took place. Our line includes light rubbers in all the popular shapes, and heavy rubbers in buckle arctics, pacs and rubber boots. Just say “United States rubbers” to the man. Mail orders will be filled by prepaid parcel post anywhere in Indiana.
ent. Sullivan gave his home as Sheridan, Wyo. George L. Lake, St. Louis, testified ho often had seen prisoners come from Detzer's office badly beaten. Lake now is employed at Jefferson City. Mo. The prosecution announced it will call two of its prize witnesses during rebuttal. They are Lieut. Leonard D. Mahan, formerly of the Washington, D. C., police department, and Capt. John M. Weir, both of whom have been accused by Detzer as being parties to an alleged “frame up” to obtain his conviction.
a man, whose name he would not give, made the moonshine whisky and met him at the river with it. Lieut. Thomas and a large squad of police were sent to the farm and began a search in the wilds of the White'river bottoms for the mysterious still. The police say they have information that Miller makes mysterious trips down the river in a boat and returns with a load of moonshine whisky. Miller’s farm Is about five miles southwest of Monument place. The country is wild and there are no houses In the vicinity except Millers. The ownership of the farm is disputed. The city of Indianapolis claims ownership of the farm by right of purchase in connection with the purchase of the Sellars farm for the city reduction plant. Miller, the city officials say, Is a “squatter” and now is fighting for ownership of the land in court. Miller was brought to police headquarters In a patrol wagon. As he stepped out of the wagon he said to policemen gathered about: "Well, boys, here’s yonr moonshiner."
took one of the leading parts while the gang was at Muncie. Joseph Bngleton a'iso was one of the principals at Muncie. Both men rendered the government valuable assistance in obtaining convictions of Mayor Rollln H. Bunch and Prosecuting Attorney Horace G. Murphy of Monde in connection with the swindles and both were punished with fines by Judge A. B. Anderson. Since they were arrested in Munice during the summer both men have been engaged In legitimate business in Indianapolis. McGinnis bat been acting as a salesman for a local film exchange for several months. It Is the former swindlers could not agree upon the plan to put their scheme into a photoplay, so for the time being the Crescent film company will go into the film distributing business, with the idea of filming the swindle If the Scheme ever appears propitious. Friends of the former confidence men point to the success of the stories and photoplays of the exploits of A1 Jennings, former bandit, as indicating that there would be a demand for a photoplay with a subject which has been so widely advertised as the Muncie case.

"The trouble is," the News said, “a return to ordinary business conditions is Impossible with conldtions In the world as they are toayd.”
