'"The rapid and unwarranted

vital a matter that 1 take the

Reply.
Il have your letter of August 13
in reference to the unwarranted
increase in the price OF food
stuffs.
The head of our special agents
has been instructed to give direc-
tfons to his men throughout the
country to begin Investigations
in order to ascertain the real
facts. and am sending the va
rious district attorneys similar
instructions. This should en-
able US to secure some definite
information in respect of true
conditions.
May 1 take the liberty of sug-
gesting that perhaps the agents
of the Department of Commerce
could render valuable assistance
along the lines indicated?
When we become somewhat
more familiar with the exact
situation l hope to be able to
make you some suggestions in
respect of legal proceedings or
appropriate legisla ton
The department has for some
time been making investigations
in various directions concerning
the price of foodstuffs.
Faithfully yours,
JAMES C. McREYNOLDS,

Germans won their first important bat
tie of the Franco Prussian war;, con-
sidering the number of combatants en-
gagged.
Force of Foe Reported Large.
We understand the French had three
divisions of about $4,000 men. Two di-
visions belonged to the 7th Army
Corps, and also contained portion of
the Bensancon corps. whose members
are among the elite Of the French
army. We do not know the extent of
the artillery and cavalry engagement,
but we believe thai the French at
Muhlhausen have now a new idea Of
the value of krupp guns.
Naturally the French would have
fortified the positions at Muhlhausen
with earthworks, but an army like the
German army, which takes fortresses
by assault. would find themselves lit
tie troubled by such obstacles"

the total effective French troops did not
reach that number"
1t is further explained that the advance
Of the French infantry on Muhlhausen
was to cut the center Of German COM
munication. and 1t is added that this was
successfully carried out.

number Of troops"
