AUSTRALIANS SEEK REDUCTION. (Received 22, 1.25 p.m}) Melbourne, Sept. 22. A representative deputation from the Graziers’ Associations asked Mr. W. M. Hughes for a reduction of freights on meat and wool for export, explaining that Australian growers were charged .267 of penny, a pound more for wool than New Zealand growers were charged which made a difference of £640,000 for the season’s clip. Mr. Hughes promised to consult the management of the Commonwealth Line and ask them to assist in every way possible.—(A. and N.Z.)
