SLAININ HIS STORE Witnesses See _ Fleeing Youth With Pistol After Shooting.. John Lacovaro, sixty-two years old, grocer at 46 F street, was shot to death in his place of business last night a few minutes after 11 o'clock, and the police are searching for a young white man as his slayer. A de- scription of the suspected man tele- phoned to the several police stations last night fixes his age between twen- ty and twenty-five years and states he wore dark clothing and a straw hat. ning. away from tHe store after the murder gave practically identical de- scriptions of him. John C. Parks, col- ored, 45 F-street, almost directly op- posite the store, heard the shot, went {to a front window of his home and saw the slaver putting his weapon in his hip pocket as he ran. Parka' outcries attracted the atten- ition of Pletro Guillanl, grocer, two doors west of his home, who was closing his place of business for the night, -and he saw the fleeing man putting something in his pocket. At the corner of New Jersey avenue and F street Charles Mathers, colored, saw the same man and watched him run eouth on New Jersey avenue to E street, turn west, then south and dis- appear in the darkness on 1st street. An Italian who lives near the store rushed to the sixth precinct police station last night and 1y hi breath enough left to gasp: “A mal been shot in his store on F street. Lieut: McGill Grove, Sergt. Whalen and Policemen Koontz and Jacobs im- mediately left for the scene of the murder. Capt. Robert E. Doyle, com- mander of the precinct, and Detec- itives Kelly and Scrivener also took part in the investigation. Came Here_Forty-Five Years Ago. John Lacovaro came to this country from Italy about forty-five years ago. Last night the grocer and his wife were in their living room, adjoining the store, the husband playing soli- taire, and the wife doing the family ironing. James, one of the Lacovaro iboys. says he came home about 11 o'clock, and. after a_ talk with his father, went to bed. His mother fol- lowed him In a few minutes, and Lacovaro was left alone downstairs. James said he had been In bed only a short while before a pistol shot startled him. He ran downstairs and found his father behind the counter. He dragged him-to the living room and placed him on the sofa, where he died without a word. Peolice Take Up Trail. Detectives Scrivener and Kelly and police of the sixth precinct heard several witnesses and tried to pick up the trail of the slayer, where he was last seen making his way south on 1st street. They failed to get any trace of him, however. Y Members of the Locovaro family told a Star reporter today that the head of the family had never had any trouble with any person during the eight years he was in business on F street. Detec- tives belleve robbery was the motive of .the murderer. In the first place, the grocer was a little deaf, they were told, and probably was unable 1to understand what the robber said. The bullet entered in the region of the heart, and, it is stated, its down- ward course indicated the grocer was stooping when he was shot. The deceased is survived by his wife and four children. The children ai Mrs. Mary Bucco, 608 8th street north. east; John Locovaro, 506 K street southwest, and Frank and Jame: Locovaro, who reside at the F' street homte of their parents. It is probable that funeral servic for the in man will be held in Holy Rosary Chureh Saturday morning. The police department today offer- ed a reward of $100 for information leading to the arrest of the murderer. REGULATIONS AMENDED. Amendments to the regulations for the Officers’ Reserve Corps provide that- an_officer or employe of the United States or the District of Co- iumbia cannot hold a commission in that corps, nor be enlisted in or per- mitted to continue in that corps; “writhout the consent of the head of the executive department in which employed.” Coal Deadlock BuYers, vs. Dealers Situation is Serious ‘It is very improbable that we will +have another mild winter. o Pa.

From reliable information received here it appears_that 25,000,000 people are threatened with starvation, the famine being worst in the towns of northern Russia, which used to be sup- plied by the southwestern provinces. The crops in the Ukraine were reported to be fair, and the towns in that re- gion were invaded first by the soviet officials and then by people from the famine regions. The result was that everybody began hoarding food, a pound of bread rising In price from 1,500 rubles to 7,000 rubles. Coal Mines Denerted.

Only the railroad shops are busy, the moviet supplying the workmen with army rations. ~Ac- cording to soviet calculations, Russia will need 64,000,000 tons of grain for next year. The soviets have decided that half of that quantity must be sup- plied by the peasants and the rest'from property owned by the authorities. Steps have been taken to increase the cultivated area, to supply seed from the general reserve stored in_the Ukraine and to put the unemployed at ‘work on the land. In spite of the chaotic conditions ef- forts are being made by the soviet government to feed the army on the northwestern frontier regularly, even if insufficiently, from food received from abroad and stored in Petrograd. The southwestern army receives no supplies at all, but lives on requisi- tions and- forced contributions. The Caucasian 9th and 11th armies receive full rations, thanks to the large quan- titles of grain and cattle received from Anatolia in exchange for arms and ammunition. The military lead- ers are advocating the policy of “go. ing and getting food from Eurdpe this tive on the southwesterd front incit- ing the oldiers. “You have excellent war equipment,” they say. “Food is abundant in Rumania and Poland. Why not go and get it from there?’ Rumanians Accused. Foreign Minister Tchitcherin on Tuesday sent a new wireless note to Rumania making the charge that the Rumanian government is encourag- ing and helping the enemies of the soviets. - He accuses Rumania_ of sheltering the remnants of Gen. Pet- lura’s army and assisting financially the anti-bolshevist leader to recruit an army on the Dnlester. Tchitcherin also protests against the attitude of the Rumanian government, which warned Bulgaria that it would con- sider the sending of Bulgarian dele. gates to Russia to arrange for the exchange of war prisoners as a hos- | tile act. After repeating many pre- vious accusations the note ends by saying that while Russia desires to live in peace with her neighbors the soviet has instructed its army on the Rumanian border, if attacked, to pursue the attackers in Rumania territory until they are annihilated.

An indication of the number of for- eigners who will be in Washington to participate in the disarmament and far eastern conference was contained in information received at the State Department today that the Chinese delegation would be approximately 100 strong. Karlier informal reports had placed the number &t thirty-one. Caiculations based on the assump- tion that the Chinese delegation might be the smallest make it a reasonabie presumption, it was said, that the delegations from Great Britain, France and Japan wiil be at least 200 each in size. Lodge Confers With President. Senator Lodge called at the White House today and conferred briefly { with President Harding for the first time since his selection as a member of the American conference delegation {was announced. He said later that a wide range of subjects had been cov- ered in his conversation with Mr. Harding, and it was assumed some phases of the disarmament problem had been talked over. Under Secretary Fletcher of the State Department, who has been placed in charge of those matters, is finding some difficulty in selecting suitable places for the meeting of the coming conference, as well for the housing for the experts and working forces of the various for- eign delegations. It is practically settled that the Pan-American Union building will be used as the main headquarters of th: iconference, and, undess some large ilable, that the hall 1 building of the Daugh ters of the American Revolution near- by will be used for general assem | blies of the conferees and accompany {ing delegations. Other buildings un- der consideration for pofsible use in lllle purposes of the conference are the Senate Office building, the Con- gressional Library and the Corcoran Gallery of Art. The governing board of the Pan-American Unfon will mect in a day or two to consider the offer of the use of its building for the pur- poses of the conference. There is no donbt that its action will be favor- labl:_ Confer With Fletche: -1 - Members of the District real estate board called at the State Department yesterday afternoon on the invitatign of Undersecretary Fletcher and were asked |to co-operate with him in providing suitable housing accommodations, at reasonable rates, for the delegations from the various countries. It is un- Cerstood that they promised every as- sistance in their power to see that the necessary physical facilities are pro- vided the official visitors for the com- ! fortable and convenient prosecution of their work in this city. It was shown that those matters cannot be finally arranged until defi- nite information has been received at the State Department as to the per- I sonnel and number of the various for- _eign delegations and their special de- sires in the matter of living and office accommodations. !” Officials of the embassies and lega- tions in this city have been requested to supply information on that point at their earliest convenience.
