way for Yorktown, on the York River, as
soon as possible. Here he expected to
meet his first obstacle. This was in the
form of a body of troops under General j.
b. Magruder, a past master at "bluffing,"
which Mcclellan thought numbered from
1900 TO 10000. Actually they were fewer
than 1900. of which 5000 were required for
the Notifications of Yorktown and the re-
mainder for the protection OF a line thir-

Thereupon the energetic campaign with up

the army sat down before the Notifications

Mcclellan now began to ask for reinforce

more than n hundred thousand troops
ready for duty. He knew so little about
the enemys forces that he was constantly
complaining that they were greater than
his own, and with distress that was
almost comic he wrote two or three days
after sitting down before Yorktown, The

He served notice that big business interests in the country must be brought with in the law just as railroads have been. He declined to admit there exists any discretion that will permit the attorney general to stay the hand of the government in dealing with combinations in restraint of trade At the same time he made an earnest appeal for reasonable consideration for railroads and other big indus trial corporations on the ground their reformation is being brought about steadily and satisfactorily and that nothing can be gained by "Vindictive hostility" He denounced those poli- ticians who are seeking to prejudice the people, and are seeking to array one section of the country against another. He declared such utterances to be Those of the blindest of men, Trust prosecutions. he said, need not be long continued because he believed the business community is preparing to square itself with the law. He repeatedly acclaimed against sectional prejudice and unreasonable denuncia- ton of corporations by persons seek ing political advantage. He said he had heard Severest criticisms from men engaged in business regarding the anti trust law and declared their position must not be supported. The first day in Iowa was one of large crowds, along the line from Council Bluffs to Waterloo. Most of the speeches dwelt upon the tariff. He was welcomed to Iowa by Governor Carol. senator Kenyon and a large number Of prominent republicans. Senator Cummins was not present, but will meet the president at Des Moines.
