| LONDON, Nov. 26.-The published pro-
| visions of the new United States tariff
bill caused special surprise In the cutlery,
steel and electro-plats industries of Shelf
| field. The principal Sheffield manufactur-
| ers trading with the United States were
to-day asked their opinions of the Wilson
bill. Some said that the reductions made
were not as large as they expected. 9th
ers eaid they were satisfied with the bill
and expressed the hope that it would lead
to revival of orders from the United
States.
Those manufacturers who expected larg-
or reductions based their hopes upon re-
ports which their agents In America sent
early in the year. They now express the
belief that the tariff bill was modified in
consequence of the results of the recent
elections. Manufacturers generally want
to know exactly what kind of cutlery will
be allowed under the So per centum tariff.
They think that the low tariff will allow
German manufacturers to food America
with cheap products to the serious detri-
ment of good American manufactures.
German makers, they say, expecting tariff
reform, have been piling up enormous
stocks ready to pour into the United
States.
The ST. James Gazstte is not greatly
pleased with the new tariff bill; yet 1t ad-
mits that the bill shows signs that Mr..
Cleveland is prepared to fulfil his promises,
and that there is no question that it will
prove great relief to trade. It says:
''All through the bill care is taken to
leave the American producer with the diff
ferential due in his favor. Complete free
dom Is given only where no competition Is
feared. 1t is that better than McKinley's
Chinese WALL but it leaves the foreign
trading with the United States at no small
disadvantage. Still, the best We can say
for 1t is that this is preferable to the pure
ly obstructive thing which 1t is designed
to replace"
PANS, Nov. 2S.-The Journal DIES De-
bats contains in its editorial columns to-
day an analysis of the new United States
tariff bill The article, in concluding, notes
that France will profit little blythe bill, but
expresses the hope that President Cleve-
lands energy and courage will ensure the
adoption of the measure.
TORONTO, Nov. 2S.-The Globe, liberal,
commenting on the new American tariff,
says:
"Apart from the financial effects of the
proposed measure which will be important,
not only to Canada but to the commercial
world at large, the fiscal revolution is in
terssting in itself as a more important
event than any change in forms and sys.
TENS The protective features have not
been entirely removed from the tariff, and
there is some protection philosophy in
Chairman Wilson's report. The free list,
however, is most comprehensive and 30
advantageous to Canadians that they can
readily excuse the occasional cropping up
of the old falacies."
The Mail, independent, saye: "The new
tariff bill is calculated, If accepted, to be
beneficial to the American people in more
ways than one. But it opens up new prob
lens for the Dominion"
The Gazette, government organ, COM
menting on the new tariff bill, says: 1.-THE
effect of the measure will be mutually ben
efieisl to both Canada and the United
States"
The Herald, liberal, says: "Wilson has
done work which the Canadian minister
should emulate Our trade with the United
States, which has been falling off rapidly
for the past ten years, will pick up If this
bill becomes law to the great mutual adj
vantage of both countries, since, If we sell
America more goods we shall certainly buy
more from them In return"
