AMERICAN MEAT.
WESTERN GROWERS' DEMANDS. Received October 22, 8.50 a.m. NEW YORK, October 21. General Michael Bayan, president of the American Packers' Association, states that packers will be obliged to urge the United States Government to abolish the meat duties unless the western cattle raisers reduce their demands. Owing largely to the prices of meat, the American Army Stores Department is asking for an appropriation of a quarter of a million sterling to meet the increased cost of rations. Since the estimates were submitted prices have risen from lOd to Is per man per day.
