FEAR H0RSEFLESH WILL

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.)
LONDON. Nov. 29.-Fear that horse
flesh shipped to Rotterdam might fnd
it's way as food into Germany resulted In
a $50 fine being imposed on horseflesh
dealer at Hull this week. The defendant
had done business with a horse butcher
in Rotterdam for six years. But he had
exacted no bond from the Rotterdam
man 20 make sure that the meat would
not reach Germany. For this lack OF
precaution he was fined. The butcher
testified that the war had made no diff
ference In the price OF horse meat in
Holland. and he was paid according TO
the condition In which the meat arrived.
His last shipment consisted OF twelve
earcasses.

Andrews also said that u the New Or

match he CAndrewO would gladly take
over the project by offering tho boxers
purse OF $4,000 for ten-round bout
during the first week in February.
1T would be a serious mistake for
Burns TO drop the project" said An

substitution of Frank Moran for Fulton
would be n poor one. loran has refused
to meet Fulton.
'"rhe bout was made In good faith.
Both men have posted with me forfeits OF
$500 each"
Money Not Posted.
The promoters have as yet failed to
post their money OF similar amount with
Bon Vernon. New York.
II am certain that Tom Jones, Will

ger for Fulton. will not stand for Gny
cancellation or substitution.
1T would be an injustice to Nike Col
