Jelfeving that the high prices are due to profiteering the government recently ordered the department stores to make a reduction of 15 per cent in necessities.

This last was the one nearest Duchemin, who was upon him so sud- denly that it would be difficult to say which was the more surprised when Duchemin's stick struck down pistol hand of the other with force as must have broken his wrist.
