EFFECT OF FOREIGN CONTRACTS. DOMESTIC SUPPLY TO BE IMPORTED. (By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright.) (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) BUENOS AYRES, June 25. (Received June 27, 5.5 p.m.) The Argentine Government, after securing the enactment of a four pesos super-tax on wheat in order to obtain funds with which to purchase wheat for the manufacture of bread, is now attempting to negotiate for a wheat supply. It appears that the available supply has been contracted for by England, France, Italy, and other foreign Governments and the Government will be forced to seek wheat abroad.
