Guiding Pork is to Be Executed.
NO response has yet been received from

test lodged by the American charge at Con-
stantinople, by direction of the State De-
partment, against the proposed decree ex-
Guiding American pork from importation
into Turkey. SO it is not known whether or
not the decree will actually be executed.

iense OF our meat(products, as embodied
In this statement. Sufficiently comprehsn-
slve to meet not only. this proposed Turk
ism decree. but like hostile orders and en-
actments by other European governments.
