26 CHEAPER COFFEE NOW PREDCTED Brazilian Traders Anxious to Sell Holdings as Big Crop Looms. BY J. C. ROYLE. Snecial Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, March 5.—The 60,- 000,000,000 cups of coffee which will be consumed in the United States this vear probably will not cost as much Der cup as was the case in 1924. The veason is that Brazilian coffee men are showing a greater inclination to market their holdings. This is due, uccording to dispatches from Santos, 1o an anxiety over the curtailment in demand from actual consumers and to the fact that producers now are talk- ing of an 8,000,000-bag crop.

The Cuban crop promises to exceed that of a rear ago by about 13 per cent and doubtedly will be the largest ever own. Consumption undoubtedly 1l be larger than last vear since lower prices inevitably give impetus to buying. 5 Higher Sugar Uniikely. Even If consumption should ad- vance 10 per cent, a liberal estimate, it would not take care of added pro- duction.

The supply undoubtedly will be large enough to make any price advance during the Summer unlikely, and in the Autumn, the beet sugar produ will e to check any unusual advance due to Cuban ef- forts.

BY HIRAM K. MODERWELL. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. (In an ezclusive uncensored dis- patoh Tuesday Mr. Moderwell told how Premier Mussolini’s iliness had taken such a serious turn that he had been compelled practically to relin- quish his ofice to his friend, Signor Federazzoni, minister of the interior in his cabinet. In this dispatch he tells more about the man who he says is destined to become prime minister of Italy.) ROME, March 3 (by mail to Paris, March 4).—The news that Premler Mussolini is more seriously ill than s generally belleved will be carefully broken to the people. Signor Federaz- zonl, who “temporarily” assumes the premiership and who seems destined to take the reins permanently, was one of the leaders of the Nationalist party which now has been fused with the Fascisti. He has been minister of the interior since the Matteotti murder and has succeeded in keeping Italy orderly against great dificulties. He is credit- ed with political common sense, a clear, fevel head, a firm will and great administrative ability. Strong Man of Cabinet. Since the Matteotti affalr, Federaz- zoni- has been the chief strength of the Mussolini cabinet, standing for peace and normalization against the extreme Fasclsti, who publicly threat- ened to massacre their opponents. But with Mussolini's personality with- drawn, Federazzoni would soon come to grips with the Fascist! “wild men,” who are headed by one of their most violent leaders, Farinacci, who re- cently was named political secretary of the Fascist party. He is idolized by the Fascist hot- heads, to whom he promised “com- plete realization of the revolution.” In other words, state jobs for all Fascisti and permanent suppression of the opposition press and the right of assemblage. Text of Power Possible. Tt appears to some observers in- evitable that the rivalry between these two must result in a fight to the bitter end between the two prin- ciples which they incarnate—govern- | ment by violénce and government by law.

NEW YORK, March 5.—Failure of the United States Senate to adopt the Bok world peace plan during the Sixty-elghth Congress, which ended yesterday, caused Dr. Charlss Herbert Levermore, author of the plan, to lose his chance—technically, at least—to gain the second award of $50,000 offered by Edward Bok. The first award of $50,000 was given Dr. Leyermore upon acceptance of his plan by a special jury headed by Elthu Root. Under the terms of the award it was necessary for the United States Senate to have adopted the winning | plan by March 4, 1925, before its| author could receive the second half of the $100,000 award.
