.GERMANY FINALLY CONSENTS

The British foreign office notified
the state department some months ago
that the exportation of beet seed from
Germany would not be interferred with
by the British naval blockaders, the
seed to be paid for in gold. The Ger.
man government, however, prohibited
the expectation of beet seed unless it
were to be paid for BY the United
States in food products, condition to
which the British refused to agree. Ac-
cording to the above despatch from
Washington, Austrian exporters have
stepped into the breach to meet the
American demand and the shipments
will be made, evidently, on the lines
laid down by Great Britain.
