AUSTRALIAN POLITICS.
Income Tax Decision.
(Received Last Night, at 11.52 p.m.) Melbourne, Yesterday.
The High Court have refused leave to appeal against the Income Tax decision. The Chief Justice said he belieyed they would be guilty of dereliction of duty, amounting to a breach of trust, if they declined to accept the responsibility, unless they were in a position to give intelligible reasons why the Privy Council were better judges in the question than they were. He did not see that the questions in the case, could be better decided by the Privy Council than by the High Court.
