THE LICENSING BILL.
Extension of Time Limit. LONDON, March 18. The Central Council of the Church of England Temperance Society, presided over by the Archbishop of Canterbury I (Dr. Davidson) and attended by many Bishops, endorsed the Licensing Bill and undertook to support an extension of the time limit, if 14 years was found to be insufficient, to prevent an unreasonable strain on the trade. I "The Times" says that while the Go- : vernment is willing to materially extend the statutory period, the Opposition appear to be determined to resist the bill to the utmost.
