FREIGHT ON FROZEN MEAT.
NEW RAILWAY REGULATION. DIFFERENTIAL CHARGES MADE. A new regulation fixing charges for the carriage of frozen meat by rail has been gazetted. Meat is now charged at class C rate, with a reduction of 30 per cent, in the case of frozen beef and veal and of 20 per cent, in the case of mutton, larnb and pork. The department is now authorised to decline the respective rebates when frozen meat is consigned "by any person or firm utilising other means than the railway for the carriage of by-products, such as pelts, skins, tallow, wool, etc., from the works of such person or firm, where the railway is available for the transport of such by-products."
