PROPOSES RETALIATION.
President Urbuyeau Has Sent Mes
sage to Congress.

sage 10 OOuSIGSe.
New York. Sept. IA special to the
Herald from Buenos Ayres, Argentina,
says,
President Urbuyeau has sent a message
to congress in which he advocates, as a
measure of retaliation against the United
States. increased duties on articles i'm
ported in large quantities from that coun-
in his message the president specifies
particularly as articles on which the
duties should be largely increased Pc
troleum, timber, ploughs, ploughshares
and all agricultural implements and ma
chinery which are imported largely from
the United States. Higher duties. the
president saws should be imposed be-
cause of the recent difficulties which the
Dingley tariff has thrown in the way of
expectation from this country to the
United States.
The president contends that the policy
of Argentina toward all countries which
export to Argentina has always been fair
and just, as proven when the Wilson law
in the United States accorded great lib
crafty to Argentina and in return this
country made sweeping reductions in the
duties on timber and petroleum imported
from the United States. The proposed
increase in duties advocated by RreS-
dent Urbuyeau will amount to s5Oo.V00 in
gold. The president hopes that special
conventions can be negotiated with the
United States and other countries pro
Viding for greater Hberaltty to Argentina
products before it will be necessary to en-
force the increased duties if they should
become law
The scheme on which the special con-
ventions proposed by the president will
be based is as follows:
First. a maximum tariff. This will be
an increase of duties of 50 per cent and
Will be applied to those countries which
levy high duties on imports from Ar
genttna. 4 minimum tariff Will provide
for the importation of foreign products
Another tariff will provide for a big re-
duction of duties on imports from those
countries offering similar reductions to
Argentina products. In other words a
reciprocal tariff.

not to put a ticket in the field. but
leave the way open for a non-partisan
movement. So far no names have been
mentioned publicly for any of the Of
fees The water works question will
no doubt be the great question of the
campaign, for it is understood that the

claim the next move will probably be
