MOULDY MUTTON.
(Per Press Association.)
CHRISTCHURCH, October 13
The White Star liner Runic commenced this morning- to load the local portion of her cargo of mutton, consisting of 30,000 carcases. Some few hundred carcases had been loaded, when the refrigerating engineer of the vessel refused to take delivery of the mutton, and the carcases were unshipped again. A total of sixteen large cars were refused, the grounds of refusal being that the meat had greatly deteriorated, and showed signs of mouldiness.
