Exports Peril Meat Supply.

New York, Sept. 13.-The Euro
pean war is encroaching seriously up.
on the meat supply of this country,
according to figures made public by
the foreign trade department of the
National City Bank. Notwithstand-
ing the marked decrease in the num-
Der of food animals in the United
States, exports of meat have trebled
since the beginning of the war and
of beef alone exports are greater by
tenfold. ...
The compilation shows that exports
of meat of all kinds, which amounted
to 445,0O0,000 pounds in the fiscal
year 1914, the year prior to the war.
amounted to Ss5,000,00O in 1915 and
1888, OO0,OO pounds in 1916.
The increase of 100 per cent in the
total meat exports during the first
year of the war and goo per cent in
thessecond year is trifling when com
pared with the gain in beef exports
alone. The quantity of fresh beef ex
ported jumped from 100000 pounds
in 1914 to 10, 100000 in 1915 and 231,
100000 in 1916.
