THE ALBERT! FRAUDS.
WILL BUTTER TRADE BE AFFECTED? The fact: that large: numbers of Danish dairy-farmers - aiid their factories are financially injured to •a- considerable extent through' the AJberti frauds, raises an interesting query as to what effect this will have on the Danish butter trade. Some authorities consider-the pinch will .cause the factories' to' unload ' their supplies upon the London market more .rapidly. than'. they would-otherwise have done. If this expectation should b'o realised; it may be expected that -the present excess of butter going into Britain will be heavily increased, - and that prices l .will drop considerably. Should this happen, it would perhaps injure the later outlook for Australasian supplies. The unloading would ; reduco stocks, and thus shorten tho later-'supplies, ' but it is held that'if prices fall now it will, be difficult to raise ,them again. The whole position: at present. is problematical,' and affords room for extensive speculation. :'
