This Iv as the prediction made to- ! day bv tieueral Michael tiyan.the pre- ideut of the American Packem Assocl Htion. In mi interview with tue I'nit ted t'ress he said " The coo.utry is confronted with a shortage of meat and if the present shrinkage contin ues there will not be enough. Unless more cattle Hie raised it is u sure thing that thw tarill' will! have to lie removed. Argentine is shipping beef to Englahd aud this ia being sold at reasonable prices. Without the tariff the greater part of tbe shipments I could be diverted to 'his country. If all of tbe packers joined iu a peti tion for tne removal of tbe tariff it would uot be a difficult matter to have it removed." ' !
