Home Politics.
(PRB PBESS ASSOCIATION!. London, June 5. In the Honse of Commons to-day, the Death Duties Bill was committed. Clause 1, embodying the principle of a general estate duty, was carried by a majority of 42 votes. Sir W. V. Har court denied that the Bill would impose any tax upon the colonies, and said that everybody would be treated alike. Sir John Lubbuck will raise the colonial issue regarding the Bill later on. Mr Balfonr said that the Government, by their action, were making it impossible for British Bubjects to invest their money abroad, or for foreign subjects to invest in England.
