Imperial Politics.
0 (Per Press Association.) London, February 28. Lord Ripon has withdrawn the Australian Customs Bill, owing toa technical error. It is expected it will be introduced in the House of Commons. Lord Ripon said he was privately informed the Commons would object to the Bill being initiated in the Upper House owing to its financial character. Personally he assured the House the Bill did not touch the question of privilege, being a colonial measure. The Welsh Church Disestablishment Bill was read a first time in the House of ' Commons. Mr Bryce, speaking in defence of the Bill, pointed to the examples of the disestablished Episcopal churches in the colonies, whose spiritual life had not been affected.
