NO EARLY REDUCTION.
NEW YORK. Feb. 16. Mr Arthur Bcese, president of the National Association of Wool .Manufacturers, addressing the annual meeting to-day, said that, though lie had earlier believed that a trade treaty lowering raw wool duties either with Australia or Argentina, or with both, might be effective in July, it was now known that difficulties had arisen in connection with the negotiations with both Australia and Argentina, and present indications were that there would not bo any reduction in wool duties before the end of this year or even later. The Ma-ster Butchers’ Association of New South Wales believes that the home meat market is capable of great expansion and that a far greater amount of prime quality meat could bo consumed
locally. With this object in view, it has planned a preliminary campaign to increase public interest in moat, and to point out tlie advantages of greater meat consumption.
