Colonial Meat Export.
[PKB PBEBS ASSOCIATION J London. March 30. Mr Geddes states that a meat syndicate has been formed in Germany, and that it has been arranged to retail Australian frozen meat to the large centres. A French syndicate has requested Mr Geddes to quote a. price for 100,000 tons of preserved meat annually. A return published by Nelson Bros, gives some instructive information as to the enormous strides which the frozen meat has made in New Zealand. In 1893 the imports into London from this colony numbered 1,894,751, carcases mutton and lamb, as against 1,535,583 for 1892. In 1893 the total export from Australia was only 636,716, while the River Plate, the strongest rival of New Zeiland in this industry, also shipped less than this Colony last year, for 1,356,389 carcases of mutton and lamb was the quantity sent to London from that part of the world, or 538,362 carcases fewer than New Zealand's consignment.
