Bc-blix, Oct. 3,-The replie. i,-
qniries of leading wholeia dealers, hi
American pork, show that it is still very
limited. The cost of inspection In
America, combined with the duty still
imposed, prevents the popular sale of
American hog products., The price of
salted American pork rules about 54
marks per 100 weight, while cured Ger
man bacon sells at 5G marks. Dealers
are combining in an attempt to get the
government to reduce the duty, -which is
now 10 marks per 100. Until this is
done no marked impetus will be given
to the trade in American pork.

Loxnox, Oct. 3. The Manchester
Guardian, which has a powerful influ
ence among the manufacturers, in a
leading article on the Chicago fair, says
if the reports are true, that the Ameri
can exhibits are to be ticketed with in
scriptions showing the amount paid
workmen for producing the same, for
the purpose of making a contrast with
the: pay given Europeans for similar
work, it fears that English firms will
hold aloof and demand an explanation
as to exactly how the exhibition author
ities intend to treat foreigners, It adds
that Sir Henry Woods, who will soon re
turn from Chicago, may be able to throw
light on the conflict between his recent
statements, and the view apparently
widely held in Chicago and the Eastern
states, as to the uses to which the fair is
to be put. .
