PARIS, Aug. 12.-The German army
of the Moselie 10 striking at the gap
In the French Notifications north OF
verdun. It has been checked at
Longwy on the 5eIgian-Luxembur9
frontier In that vicinity. This army
which 10 striking south through Lux
embure is reported to be operating a.
far south at Contains and to be In
great strength. Its entire front 10
screened by cavalry who are raidins
the frontier line.
1t Is believed here that this move
ment is planned to divert attention
from the operations Of the army now
moving westward in Belgian territory
and which 10 aimed at Lille. The
whereabouts Of the French army
which will attempt to drive back this
invasion, 10 kept secret at the war
office. However, it 10 admitted there
that severe fighting near stenay can
shortly be looked for.
The exact position Of the French
army Of Invasion that was forced to
evacuate Muhhausen 10 not revealed.
It n insisted at the war Office, how
ever that it Withdrew from Milhau-
sen in perfect order and Immediately
entrenched at position between that
city and the Alsacian frontier. Tho
German attack that followed was Sc
we're, all branches Of the service being
engaged. 1t Is admitted that there
were heavy losses on both sides, but
the war office insists that the Ger
mans were finally checked.
The Germans brought into action
here their new krupp guns, according
to unofficial statements from army Of
ficiaIs. These guns wrought havoc
in the French lines, having much
longer range than had been believed
possible, but It Is also claimed that
the German Workmanship was poor.
The French artillery was used to ad.
vantage and under cover Of guns, the
French cavalry charged in force.
Fighting was still In progress, accord
ing to last advices.
The war office in is account Of tho
fighting near the Luxembourg frontier
announces that the German command.
ing general made formal demand on
the French commander Of the fortifI-
cations at Longwy.
"This was Indignantly refused,"
said the announcement, "and tho
enemy was told that II he wanted the
position, to come and take It."
Up to the present the fort there ID
holding out, but as Il 10 an old one,
It is considered possible that the
French may not try to hold II against
an overwhelming force.

INVESTIGATION ON.


NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Actins on
the complaint of the Housewives
League, District Attorney Whitman
today began an Investigation TO deter
mine whether there are any eIeme nts
of conspiracy In the sudden upward
movement in food prices in New York.
Meanwhile dealers kept their goods at
the higher figures and even predicted
increases.
According to meat dealers, the
American public will suffer most when
Europe begins offering exorbitant
prices for our food. Packers and
other producers here who are not in
business for their health will accept
these Inflated prices and all the Amer
lean public can do 10 to pay the same
rates.
This fact led to discussion among
proponents Of a fight against the "food
trust" for a movement looking toward
Imposition by congress Of an export
tax. II was pointed out that such
measure would swell revenues and
take the place Of those which It was
expected would be lost through cur
talment Of European exports
Because the worlds production OF
sugar will probably be but little more
than half the normal, wholesalers to-
day predicted ten and fifteen cent
sugar. Flour is already up twenty
percent and still climbing.
/ CONDENSED MILK.
/ NEW YORK, Aug. 12-Exporters
Of condensed milk are beginning to
feel the European war in demands for
their product abroad Paralysis OF
shipping has largely hindered their
filling of orders.
The export manager Of Borden's
Condemned Milk company today said 1t
was impossible to estimate the amount
which Europe would ask from Amer
lea, but he believed continental stocks
were largely depleted now and that
American firms would be deIuaed
with orders.
