FROZEN MEAT MARKET.
MINIMUM SELLING PRICE. Press Association.— Telegraph.—Copyright.
London, April 17. At a meeting of consignees and salesmen held for the purpose of discussing the method of supporting values for frozen mutton, Mr. Montague Nelson suggested fixing a minimum weekly selling price, which salesmen should be bound to adhere to. He proposed 2s lid per stone for prime New Zealand, and 2s 8d for ordinary New Zealand, should be the price fixed for the current week.
The agent of the New Zealand Loan and Mercantile Agency remarked that similar proposals in 1887 had failed for want of unanimity. The meeting adjourned until the 23rd, in order that others interested may be consulted.
