FROZEN MEAT FOR GERMANY.

• A CONFERENCE. It is reported from London, that a conference is to be held in Dresden to consider tho matter of frozen meat importation. ' ■ The London correspondent of. the Christchurch "Press" ■'writes:—"Meat ■producers the world over agree that Ger■many, while, of course, the most difficult ■market to gain, is undoubtedly, the richest 'to secure as a new source of demand, and Jbcsido tho Teuton, consumer tho Latin meat eater must always rank a bad second. ■ The tidings from Dresden, therefore, are highly interesting, as they show that tho ferment set up by the Socialist agitation, the International Congresses, and other agencies, is actively at work, and is bearing fruit. "The source of the information as to ■this German , conference also tells us that the promoters of tho conference have the fosling that ■ any shipments that may ■ultimately bo called for as a result of this movement -will be from tho.Argentine; but note the reason. This is because it is felt in Germany .that Australian tariff policy has been hostile to Germany. Thia is retaliation with a vengeance; But. tho trade will have to see that thc=o little corners are rubbed smooth."
