fhe Bill Will Necessitate Immediate Re-
adjustment Of the Treaties with the
south American Countries which Now
Have Practical or Theoretical Reoi-
procity with the United States.
WASHINGTON, Nov. %. = The new
Democratic tariff bill was given out to
the public Monday morning. The free
list Is of such liberal scope as to satisfy
the most radical advocates of reform,
and the reputation of the principle of
reciprocity is also decisive and EN-
phatic. In addition to the reforms it
makes in the customs laws the bill will
necessitate immediate readjustment OF
treaties with the South American coun-
tries which enjoy practical or theoreti-
cal reciprocity with this country.
The bounty on sugar, which was to
be so promptly repealed. Is, instead, to
be repealed by easy gradations, and
will not reach its conclusive effect until
after the end Of this century.
