THE ABERDEEN BILL
Senator PettigreW Opposed to the
Bill In Its Present Form.

s WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
Efforts are being made to pass the Aber-
deem bill, which grants to the city of Aber-
deem, s. D., the quarter section known as
the Dayton tract. Senator Pettigrew is OPP
posed to the bill in its present form, and
will move to amend it in the senate by the
addition of clause granting rights to
to the application of the city to take pos
session OF the tract or at the time of the in,
PRODUCTION of the bill. The provision at
present is that all rights shall be reserved to
the squatters who are on the land at the
time the bill becomes a law. It is claimed
that in view of the probable passage Of the
bill many people have rushed upon the
land, and that they are in no way entitled
to consideration, and further that they will
get the land for nominal sum and the city
will secure no advantages from the sale OF
the lands.

England Considering Retaliation for
the Increase in the American Tar

LoNDoS, Special. In suggesting in reply
to query as to the United States tariff
bill that there IS no opportunity of pro-
imposing duties upon staple articles Of
product from the country in question, . the
ministry has thrown out a hint OF
possible policy of retaliation upon the
United States for an increase in the
tariff. Much feeling prevails throughout
the manufacturing districts of England in
regard othe proposed increase of Ameri-
can duties, and this sentiment, as indi-
Gated in a former dispatch, is shared deep
ly in Holland. owing to the expected dis
astrous effect of the American tariff on the
trade in Sunatra tobacco. 1t is thought
possible, therefore, that some policy may
be formulated, as already suggested in Hol-
land, of discrimination against American
products.
