WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. District Judge Adrienne Nelson on Monday set Aug. 26 as the start of a hearing on the Federal Trade Commission's bid for a preliminary injunction to block supermarket chain Kroger's $24.6 billion deal to buy smaller rival Albertsons. The FTC sued last month to block the deal that would create a supermarket empire with more than 4,000 stores, saying it would boost grocery prices for millions of Americans. The tie-up has drawn tough scrutiny from lawmakers and consumer groups worried about higher grocery prices, job losses and store closures.
