An order OF council has been issued for
continuing the order fer allowing till Dec.
1912, the importation in neutral ships or YES
sells into the British places in the West In
dies and South America, of slaves, lumber,
horses, mules. asses, neat cattle, sheep, hogs,
poultry, live stock, live provisions or any Kind
81 hroOfsions gohatSocver. But from the lst
OF Dec. none of the above articles, being of
the growth or produce of the u States, are
to be imported Into the West indies, unless
there shall be, at the time Of such important.
On, certain duties imposed upon them.
From the privileges in the above order are
excepted salt, dried or picked fish, and
beet, pork and butter, from and after the
list ofJuly, 1912.
When the Order in Council, which has
been issued, was preparing, it was generally
reported to be an effect on the American law
but It is found only to regard our West m
dia trade, and to contain nothing new. 1t
was thought government would oblige Ame-
rican vessels 10 take corgoes Of our manufaC-
tures and produce, as Bonaparte does.
