LONDON, Nav. Copyright, 1891, by
New York Associated Press. The Lib
eral leaders have decided to incorporate in
the platform approved at the Newcastle
conference an
ENGLISH TENANTS RIGHTS BILL.
This decision is one of the most important
steps the chiefs of the party have ever
taken. The question of ameliorating the
position of British farmers has long been
recognized as ripening toward Liberal
legislation. This resolution was fastened
by the movement of the Conservatives in
the same direction since the great Liberal
victory in South Moulton. The history of
the Conservative party presents no
change more surprising than that
which has occurred on the Eng
lish land question under dread
of what would happen to the landlords in
terests through an uprising Of laborers
and farmers under Liberal banners. The
tenor of opinion of leading Conservatives
at the Carlton club Wednesday WAS thai
laborers must have power to acquire small
plats of land cheaply and through simpls
method, and the state must also assist the
nun Der OF years without paying more than
customary rents. This has been communi-
Gated to Lord Salisbury with an additional
| appeal from the party agents TO the effect
If English land legislation precede every
thing else at the next session and meas
ure be presented
ACCEPTABLE TO THE AGRICULTURAL INTER-
EsTs,

Secretary Fosters instructions TO Major
Bracket in defining the position of the
| American government states, IN substance,
that the government and people of the
United States are not adverse to the immi-
grafton of meritorious and self supporting
persons, but public opinion and the law of
the country are crystalliZing definitely in
opposition to further immigration of per
sons belonging 10 the helpless, defective or
criminal classes. He suggests some method
of effective inspection of emigrants Is de-
sirable, and any proper measure will re
ceive the hearty cooperation of the United
States English trade councils have taken
up definite position on the necessity of
REGULATING THE IMMIGRATION OF ALIENS.
The committee also favors a bill on the lines
of the United States labor contract law.
The attorney general, in opening the
session of the Society Of Arts, appealed Il
manufacturers IN their own interests to be
fully represented
