LONDON, April n.-No further news
has been received regarding the reported
assumption Of peace negotiations in
South Africa. but the fact that the censor
allowed the report to pass and the fact
that the government has not issued a de-

some sort are in progress.
The casualty list issued yesterday re-
vealed the fact that Lord Metnuen was
discharged from the hospital last week.

STUTTGART, April 1.-Baron Schott
Won Schottenstein, minister Of war for
Wurtemberg, stories of whose resigna-
tion under pressure and suicide pending
painful diclosures, were circulated last
month, resigned his portfolio today. For

minister of war for Wurtemberg. Last

Baron Schott Won Schottenstein was ac-
cused of being one of the principal par
tlcipants and was called upon to testify
at the preliminary hearing Of the charges
against the accused woman Shortly af-
terward he was given leave of absence by
the king of Wurtemberg and there was a
report that he had committed suicide

HAVANA CONVENTION.

the convention should express it's disap-
proval Of the principles embodied in the
Platt amendment, especially clauses II,
III, VI and VII. Senor Giberga moved
that the subject be indefinitely postponed.
but this proposal was supported by only
six delegates. The effort of the radical
element is to put the convention on rec
ord against the amendment before vot-
ing to send commission to Washing
ton. 1t was evident the Radicals had a
majority today. The matter will be fur
ther discussed.

Proceedings to stop SHIPMENT of
Mules From New Orleans May
Have Something TO DO
With 1t.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE depart
ment of agriculture haSnreceived a dis
patch from a prOminNf5 packing company
of Chicago announcing that they have
Just been advised that the English gov
eminent has excluded all beef except
home-bred from the British army con-
tracts. This it is stated is to be effect
i've June I next.
The Chicago concern has asked the
agricultural department for any assist
ance it can render. 1t has pointed out
that the action of the British government
is a severe blow to American beef and
cattle exporters and producers and means
not alone the loss in government trade,
but it is feared it will serve very mater
lally toward melting a prejudice on the
part of the people of Great Britain
against the beef and cattle of this coun-
try.
No official information of the report
Df this contemplated mCse has been re-
reived here according to statements of
officials this afternoon. Steps have been
taken however, looking to acquiring
whatever information it is possible to
get.
To demonstrate the Importance of the
move now said to be contemplated, it
may be stated that our exports
of live animals amount to $4,000 600. while
the total of animal products exported
from the United States to Great Britain,
is stated to be in round numbers s200, co.,
600. 1t is pointed out here that this pro-
posed embargo may really be a sequel,
in greater or less degree, to the pro-
ceedings instituted at New Orleans
against shipments of mules and horses
from that port for use in the South
African campaign. While this is, of
course, merely conjectural, it IS very
strongly limited that the New Orleans in
cident probably it the direct inspiration
for the step. 1t is pointed out that if.
the English really decide to take the
action reported in the advices just re-
ceived, the British might turn to Aus
tralia for their meats It is claimed,
however, that meats cannot be gotten
there in as good quality nor as cheap
as in the United States.
CABLE TO SWIFT.
CHICAGO, April n.-swift &, Co. was
tie packing firm referred to as having
wired the agricultural department re-
garding probable action of the English
government excluding all but home-bred
beef from army contracts. Mr. A. II.
Veeder, general counsel for Swift &
Co., said their London representative had
cabled to the above effect and they had
Immediately advised the department at
Washington. They had also cabled Lon
don for further information. Mr.. Veeder
was inclined to doubt that definite ac-
ton had been taken by the British gov
eminent. He expected further informa-
ton. Mr.. G. ]. Brine, Of Armour & Co..
said his company had received a cable
gram from it's London agent stating that
sit was runlOred" that such action had
been taken. Armour & Co. Immediately
telegraphed Secretarw of the Treasury
Gage, asking for confirmation, but had no
reply up to late hour.
