HOME POLITICS.

NEW GROUPS FORMING. GENERAL ELECTION RUMOURS. (By C»ble—Press A«oci«ti<m—Copyright.) (Renter's Telegrams.) LONDON, February 1. While official circles maintain that there is no question of a general election, rumours persist, and there is much speculation regarding tho possible formation of fresh groups. It is reported that Viscount Grey may emerge from retirement, as his eyesight is better, and act in conjunction with Lord Robert Cecil. Another rumour predicts the formation of a new group headed bv Mr Winston Churchill and Lord Birkenhead. Independent Liberals, however, believe the Government is determined to pass a Bill to reform the House of Lords before any appeal is made to the country. Thus there can be no election,, until the end of tho year. CHURCHILL'S INHERITANCE. ("The Timet.") LONDON, February 1. The "Daily Mail" declares that Mr Winston Churchill's inheritance from Lord Henry Vane-Tempest (who was killed in the Welsh railway disaster) is the greatest blow that the Coalition has received. His independence entirely alters the face of future politics. His advent t-o wealth and freedom makes Mr Churchill the most formidable element in politics to-day, and the greatest, single danger to the Government solidarity.
