GENERAL CABLES
Received April 18, 1.0 p.m. MELBOURNE, April 18. The death lias occurred of Mr Andrew Spence Chirnside, aged 81. Deceased was one of the founders of the Victorian Amateur Turf Club and won the Melbourne Cup and two Caulfield Cups. LONDON, April 17. With respect to the French attempts to seek to deprive Australian producers of the right to use generic descriptive names for wines such as hock, burgundy, claret, port end sherry, the Daily Express understands that the British Government has decided to stand by Australia in her fight to retain the right to label wines with names like those mentioned. It dedescribes France’s attitude as a threat to Australia’s £20,000,000 wine industry. VICTORIA (8.C.). April 17.
With the object of producing brandy now imported from France and Australia, a million gallons of loganberry wine which has been stored for three years has been pronounced excellent by experts and will be on sale within a year.
