CHICAGO Feb lS.--A war between the
American Biscuit company and the New
York Biscuit company, which both sides
agree in saying will be to finish, has
been openly inaugurated by tho New York
Biscuit oompany's announcement Of cut
equivalent TO 80 per cont on the price Of
the entire product # the concern. This ac-
tion was precipitated by the slashing of
prices by the American Biscuit company.
1t appears now to be a simple question Of
which can hold out the longest, for the
American Biscuit company makes no Sc
cret of their intention of at once making a
reduction as great as that of it, rival, If
not still more radical. Tho present price
Of the biscuit goods brings tho figures
down 60 the actual cost OF production Of
ficers of both companies acknowledge that
