 Not knowing the streets. it is said that the occupants had reached the end of Forty first street. before they were aware Of 1t, and the car plunged into the ditch and down upon the railroad tracks. At thls moment a passenger train was seen approaching and only by sheer luck and superhuman exertion did the injured men manage to escape death, as the car was brushed by the passing train

fully replied: "Yes. but it is dirty. yell low American pork" But the customers departed for the barracks, and the correspondent was treated to q great verbal outburst of uncom plimentary remarks.
 One of the barracks is totally Amer lean, being formerly used by the Amer ican army. Four of the nine barracks opening this morning belonged to the American army; the others were put up by the French.
 It is expected that when the stores close tt , o'clock this evening, 25,0oo people wifi have attended, and that not less than 5o,o00 pounds of foodstuffs will have been sold in Paris the first day at reasonable prices. A Eroceryman near one of the bar racks. in reply to a question. said
 T am in favor of low cost of living, but cannot meet these prices. Why should Vilgrain pick on me?' He said that his receipts had fallen off more than so per cent during the morning.
 Returning, the correspondent noted a great line formed outside the Theatre Francais, despite the early hour. await ing an opportunity to purchase re- served seats at tonight's performance at ss each. By strange coincidence, the play on the boards was hitherto unproduced comedy by Victor Hugo, entitled. Shall They Eat?'

FRENCH OFFENSIVE
 AGAINST H. |. OF |.
 IS IN FULL SWING
Nine Barracks Opened for Sale of Food Direct From the Government to
 the People
Bv A,.aeia,sa rr,,.

Paris, March 6.-The French govern. ment's offensive against the high cost of living led by Nj. Vilgrain, under secre- tary of the ministry of provisions, started this morning, when nine barracks were thrown open to the public for the sale or foodstuffs direct from the government to the consumer.
 The barracks, which are named the ''vilgrain Barracks" are situated in the most congested and populous poorer quar- ters of the city. A correspondent of the Associated Press visited several of them, outside of which long lines of women, hatless. with disheveled hair blowing in the chilly breeze, and blue from cold, awaited patiently their turn to be served.
 The crowds were kept cheerful by the sight of great bills on the walls of the barracks, reading:
 Rice, II cents pounds" Beans, 13c," Lard, 50,'' Tam, 56,'' shoulders, 30" 'fatback. 5o' breasts. boneless, so''
 At the barracks in the Eleventh ward the correspondent was informed by In- spector Pierre that already 1500 persons had been served up to noon, and he ex- pected to serve as many in the after noon.
 The people everywhere were neglecting vegetables and asking for fats, of which everyone took the full quota allowed two pounds.
 NEW YORK BEANS
 Mrs. Schmidt, manager of the barracks asked the correspondent to translate for her the marks on various cases imported from the United States, and she led the correspondent to a store room where bags of beans, stenciled New York; were piled beside huge stacks of cases of lard marked Chicago"
 Finally she pointed to case on which there was conspicuous red lettering, and asked: What kind of goods are these?" The stenciled words read Stow away from boilers.'
 The correspondent translated, at which the manager was greatly amused. Then the correspondent pointed to small black lettering, reading:
 Hams. Wichita, Kansas"
 Walking to the next barracks the correspondent passed the public mar ket in the shadow of the Colonne Dc Juliet, near the famous Place De La Bastille, where he asked butcher the price of pork. This was dollar d pound, and ham was s1.s0 It was mildly suggested by the correspondent : that the same goods could be obtained at half the price at the Vilgrain bar racks, at which the butcher disdain-
