FROZEN MEAT.

WEDDEL'S REVIEW OF THE TRADE.

REMOVAL OF FRENCH RESTRIC-

TIONS,

j .'■' [Prbss Association.] (Received Jan. 15, 11.25 a.m.) LONDON, Jan. 14. Weddel's annual review- of the meat itrade states that the experiences of 1 the war already show that for ease in transport, capacity to stand exposure, and economy in handling frozen meat is far superior to fresh killed or .chilled. France's removal of restrictions must materially influence . the whole trade. For some time she has been admitting frozen meait 5 not only for military requirements, but also to protect her flocks,and herds from undue depletion. It is impossible to forecast the course of the .market,, but while the British. Navy retains: control of the sea and the supply of insulated tonnage is maintained it is scarcely likely that prices will advance further.
