CHANCELLOR CArRIvI has re-
fused to admit Russian pork TO
Germany, on the ground, as he told
the petitioners, that disease was
prevalent in that country. In the
opinion Of Minister William w.
Phelps, he will soon be Obliged to
remove this restriction from Amer
can pork. The Berliners have eaten
several thousand horses within the
past year, because Of a scarcity Of
cheap food. Pork comes in from
Denmark and Austria and Hun
gary, but not in sufficient supply and
the newspapers, especially In Sax
ony, are advocating the admission
Of this food from America. Petitions
have been Presented from Ham,
burg, Konigsberg and Berlin, and
others are to be laid before the
chancellor from other parts of the
empire. Mr.. Phelps thinks that the
popular demand for the removal Of
these restrictions is constantly
growing stronger and that before
long the chancellor will be forced to
yield to 1t.
