BEEF FOR THE BRITISH ARMY Confirmation of the Opposition to the Use of American Beef, London, April 12.

Mr. Brcderick's action -was taken long before the New Orleans proceedings, It is quite absurd to suppose any Idea of retaliation prompted the more, and it was due solely to a desire to help the heme industry.

The difference In price Is very trlff ling and we are making that up by giving Tommy Atkins frozen mutton two days Instead of one day weekly.

You must not suppose that we now use no home-grown beef. Aldershot am' some of our other camps are almost entirely supplied with homegrown beef. We have hitherto used refrigerated beef as an addition to our rations, ratberthanasan integral part.

This action Is taken at the instance of the department of agriculture. BIG STRIKE CONTEMPLATED Pottery Workers to the Number of 170,000 to guit Work. East Liverpool. April 12.
