LORD GRANVILLE SPEAKS.
He Claims That the Mckinley Bill VIII
Tell Against America

Ach <tSutuSt America.
LONDON, Oct. 20.-LSpeciall In
speech at Newcastle to-day Lord Gran
vile said that the Tories were confident
of the result Of appealing to the country,
yet they delayed dissolving Parliament
rs long as possible. Referring to the
new American tariff he said: "Exagger-
atcd language has been used with re-
gard to the Mckinley tariff, which will
not injurc us as much as was expected.
1t is certain to be more injurious to-
America herself
He added that the measure would tell
against American farmers and artisans
and eventually against American man
ufacturcrs. lie supposed that America
still desired to export, but she could
only get her exports paid for by i'm
ports. But for Canadian protection
duties, it would be impossible to prevent
wholesale smuggling.
The speaker said he wished particu-
larly to express the opinion that tho
law was not enacted out of hostility to
England. After generally consuming tho
government for it's policy toward Ire
land he strongly condemned the practice
OF Swallowing" from which, no said,
even felons in England were exempt.
