OUR CATTLE EXCLUSION.
Indications That the Administration
Will Take Positive Action.

Indications That the Administration
Will Take Positive Action.
While no specific instructions have been
sent to Messrs Erstis and Runyon, our
ambassadors to France and Germany. re-
spectively, to threaten reprisals for the ex-
clusion of cur cattle and beef products
from those countries there are visible
signs that the administration is preparing
to take more vigorous and positive action
than was embodied in the simple protests
recently lodged with the French and Ger
man governments.
There Is now no expectation that at this
late day the Senate will pass the bill re-
sugar, and the representatives of the west
ern cattle interests to the effect that their
important trade is nearly paralyzed by the
operation of the exclusion DEGREES are be-
coming too strong to be resisted. There
fore it has been intimated to the steam
ship interests that 1t may be that the
United States will attack France and Ger
many, as it threatened to do Spain, by i'm
posing the 10 per cent differential flag duty
upon imports entering the United States in
French and German ships.
With competition in ocean freights as
keen as it is at present, the effect of this
action would be practically the same an
embargo on goods transported in French
and German bottoms, and while it is hoped
that there will be no necessity for such a
drastic measure. this may be unavoidable,
should the President conclude that the de-
crees constitute an unjust discrimination
against United States trade.
