night, in responding TO the sentiment "Our
Present Duty Mr.. Kern declared that Mr..

quarter of the working people are either
idle or insufficiently employed. There is
little prospect of an Improvement in the

WAITS TO KNOW THE REASON.
Secretary Hay Cables to Ambassadors
ChOate for Information.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-The informa-
ton in the Department of Agriculture re-
Gardng the British governments decision
to buy only home bred beef for its army
supplies after June / next, consists of the
advices from three large packing houses
in Chicago and the press report from LoE-
con confirmatory OF those advices. No off,
cial confirmation has been received. Among
officials here there is no disposition TO
accredit the reasons that actuated the new
policy to any dissatisfaction with American
meats. No objection has been offered to
American beef or beef products on the score
Of their quality condition. The beef
shipped from this country to England for
the use of the British army, it is stated,
always has been of the finest quality and
uniformly in prime condition when deliv-
cred and distributed. No complaint has
been made by the British authorities.
Secretary Wilson said to-day that every
thing the administration do in the mat
ter Is being done. But l cannot under
stand" he said, why the British govern
ment has taken this step. They know that
our erain-fed beef is the kind that is
shipped to them. There must be some rea-
son that is not APPARENT on the surface. We
sell them million dollars worth of meats
for every million of their population. Sup
pose they have a quarter million troops
in the field. 1t can make little difference
10 our producers whether they take enough
from the homegrown supply TO feed the
soldiers, for If they do that they must i'm
port just that much more to supply the
deficiency. The British do not produce
enough in Great Britain to supply their
home demand. There must be some other
reason
Secretary Hay has cabled to Ambassador
Choate to inquire into the reason for the
order OF the British government, a meas
ure which excludes the American refriger-
ated beef heretofore used. This action is
taken at the instance of the Department of
Agriculture.
