MEAT PACKERS' GRIEVANCES.

London, July 17.

It is iseira-officially announced in ■Washington that the meat-packers have persuaded the Government to actively push'-their case against the British Admiralty.

The Germans are delighted at the reappearance at this juncture of American trade grievances, realising that the last German Note is impossible of acceptance. They are trying, through Count Bernstorff, to persuade the Americans that the only terms on which Berlin will withdraw from the present stand is that President Wilson approach Britain to secure a compromise on the blockade question. Nobody believes that the move will be successful.
