A Moot Discussion.

Considerable time has been taken In the discussion on the Panama canal question as to whether the fleets of nation at war with the United States would under the repeal bill be allowed to pass through the canal. This is al- most a moot discussion, as 1t is not at all probable that any such fleet will be allowed to get near the canal, Ger tafnlv a commander Of such a fleet would not undertake to run by the forts that will be constructed at either end of the canal
 There are many people who yet re- member that the navy of the United States did not get within range of the Notifications at the mouth of Santiago harbor. and the only attempt to pass by those crumbling Notifications, upon which were mounted almost obsolete guns. was Hobson's attempt to sink the Merrimac and bar the channel With such Notifications as this gov erpment is erecting at the entrances of the Panama canal there will never be any question of a hostile fleet pass ing through until 1t takes the canal
 Rural Credits Go Over.
 Rural credits seems to be a proposi- ton which everybody Is for and mo- body wants. The last administration recommended rural credits, and the present administration recommended rural credits. Men in both houses or congress when the currency bill was considered talked of and favored rural credits. But 1t appears that rural cred its was put over, and anything that IS put over at the present time has gone by the board until after a new congress !. assemblies.
 Judicial Senators.
 "A man who has been long on the bench looks at everything from a judi cial standpoint" remarked James Hamilton Lewis. Senators Colt GOh and Thompson are judicial minded sen ators. I'll venture to say that they approach questions with a determine ton to weigh all the evidence careful ! ly and split the difference as near az possible"

gy ARTHUR M. DUNN.


 Washington, July (Special) More tha& the ordinary paragraph should be given to a condition that often prevails m the national capital and which might be included in the western phrase. the gentle art of passing the buck" In the middle west it would be called "ducking;" in the east it would be called 'side stepping the issue"
 We have recently had an example of "passing the buck" in connection with two matters Of considerable im- Dortauce throughout the country, or at least which have caused a great deal of discussion and in which many peo- pie are intensely interested
 One Of these Is the resolution for a constitutional amendment providing for national prohibition, and the other is for a similar amendment providing for woman suffrage. A remarkable thing in connection with them Is that al few years ago nobody would have ever supposed that they would become national issues to the extent of discus sion in congress and reach a stage where it was necessary to pass the buck" duck" or 'sldestep."
 How It All Happens.
 The prohibition and suffrage resOlu- tons had been introduced in congress and were referred to the judiciary committee, which had long been known as the graveyard" or the 'morgue-" " The house refused to create a woman suffrage committee and the prohibi- ton bil. was not referred as 1t might have been to the committee on alec holic liquor traffic. Both went to the judiciary committee for supposed graveyard" purposes. Every member who was bes0ught by a suhraglst or a nrohimGonist told them to go to the judiciary committee, and as a conse- qucnce the pressure upon that commit tee became great. with the result that this committee decided to pass the buck" and both resolutions were re ported out without recommendation
 The Pronibltiouists and suffragists immediately began besieging the com mfttee on rules of the house, of which Bob Henry of Texas Is chairman, be- cause a special rule was necessary to give consideration to these resolutions. Henry looked the field over and found out that tue only thing for him to do was to pass the buck" to the Demo cratic caucus.
 The Democratic caucus had decided that woman suffrage is a state ques- tion and refused to create a woman suffrage committee on that account, which Henry says Is a sufficient order r5 him until further action. Be also says the recent Democratic caucus having failed to authorize a report on prohibition he takes 1t that he Is bound to do nothing until the caucus takes action. Thus the rules commit tee passes the buck" to the Demo cratic caucus.

JERSEY TO KEEP PRODUCE
Bergen County Farmers Plan
Big Public Market.

Hackcnsack, \. j., Sept. 1.-THE
Bergen County farmers have decided to
cooperate with the officials Of Jersey
City in the effort to establish public
market As u result of conference at
IIackensack Courthouse with Acting
Mayor George F. Brensinger, several
county grangers selected the following
committee to handle the situation:
William Brandehburg, of North Airing
ton; Isaac c. Hopper, Fairlawn; II.
J ohm BONN, Westwood; Aaron Courier,
Fa;rlawn; Arthur Lozier, Spring Val
ley; Prank Musson. Woodcliff Lake,
and F. NJ. Curtis, of Harrington Park.
This means that New York City will
not have the advantage of the Bergen
County produce which it has enjoyed
for many years. The farmers realize
that in this new project they will es-
cape the middlemen and commission
men, and will get more money for their
produce. At the same time the con-
sumer will get it cheaper and much
frssher.

CALL
REVENUE CAUCUS
Instruction Against the
Freight Tax Likely to De-
feat War Measure.
IFrom The Tribune Bureau

Washington, Sept. 1i.-An insurrec-
tionary caucus on the emergency rev.
onuc bill will be held by the House
Democrats tomorrow night. Unless
the President upon his return tO-mor-
row brings the strongest pressure Of
his position to bear upon the House
Democrats the majority will overthrow
the programme for tax OIL freight
shipments.
The call for party caucus went out
to-day, the required number OF sigma
lures to petition having been obtained
by insurgcnt Democrats. II is stated
in the notice that the caucus is for
the purpose of considering "a war rev.
enue bill" but the question Of all adj
iournmcnt or recess of the present scs-
zion, without action on revenue legisla
tion, j. almost certain to be agitated.
Except for the calling Of party
council there was no change to-day in
the chaotic situation in the Democratic
ranks. Mr.. Underwood. custodian o.
the tentative bill agreed upon by the
majority of the Ways and Means Com
made no move to introduce it.,
and asserted positively that he would
not do so until the President got be-
hind il. Mr.. Underwood does not in
tend TO go on the floor except as the
Presidents spokesman. Like the ma.
jOrity of his Democratic colleagues, he
has not ceased 20 doubt the wisdom Of
"cvcnuc legislation at this
session.
The majority leader heard with
some show of surprise to-day that the
President had intimatcd at Cornish
that he was not definitely committed
TO the idea OF tax OF freight ship
mcnts. This provision Of the bill was
put through the conference Of Demo.
cratic members of the Ways and
Means Committee solely upon the
theory that the President wanted it,,
the committeeman originally standing
7 TO ! against the proposal. d.
Mr.. Underwood has Informed his
friends that he then understood that
the President wanted tax on freight
shipments. II the President has
switched his opinion because of the
general condemnation Of the plan, or
was misunderstood by Mr.. Underwood,
then the Ways and Means Committee
viii begin its third attempt to write
a bill to raise the revenue needed.
If the President fails openly to an
nounce in favor of tax on freight
shipments, thus rejecting a second bill
framed by the Democrats of the House
committee, these men will approach
the task of writing another bill with
considerable reluctance,

N. Y. BANKERS WON'T
FLOAT WAR LOANS
Strict Neutrality To Be Observed
in Matter of Lending Money
to BelligerentS.

Specific denial was made yesterday
by New York bankers that any German
loans were under contemplation or had
even been suggested. When peace is
declared all the nations now at war
will be large borrowers, and these
bankers expect New York will have its
full share of the work to do.
Until then strict neutrality will be
observed first, because of the attitude
of the President, and, second, because
money can be used to advantage here
In connection with the use Of the
name of Spcyer d Co. as the agents
for German loan at this time, il was
recalled yesterday that in May. 1911,
James Speyer, the head of that house.
in published address adv Gated strict
neutrality in the matter of war loans
1--WE find" he said, "in Europe in
times of peace certain governments
will not allow their bankers TO take
and place foreign loans In the home
market unless the purposes for which
the loans are to be used are KIN jwn and
approved. Now, if such supervision
and control of the bankers already
exists in time of peace, it does not
seem wide flight of imagination TO
suggest that the great powers might
agree to exercise such control in times
Of war between third parties, and to
maintain in future what, for want of
better term, might be called 'iinan-
cial neutrality
"If no financial assistance could be
obtain from the outside, few nations
would, in the face of this most etfec-
tive neutrality Of the other powers. iu-
cur the peril of bankruptcy. Some wars
would probably not take place at all,
and those that could not be avoided
would certainly last a much shorter
time"

GERMANS SEIZE
CABLE in PACIFIC
Men from One of KaiSer'S
Cruisers Raid Tanning
Island.

Vancouver. B. c., Sept. IA. Definite
news has reached Vancouver that the
Germans have captured the Tanning
Island cable station. Whether the men
who landed on the island on Monday,
September 7, were from either OF the
German cruisers NuInberg or Leipzig
cannot be definitely ascertained.
Communications were broken Of so
suddenly with the Bamfield Vancouver
Island) end of the cable that the Fan
ming Island operator was able only TO
send q message that armed men IN uni
form had landed and had entered the
suDerintendent's Office There the mes
sage stopped abruptly and the cable
has been silent ever since.
Presumably the Germans immediate
ly cut the cable at the shore end and
took off the coal and supplies that are
maintained on the island for the use
Of the cable operators. Whether they
took the operators as prisoners OF war
is also unknown.
II is understood that the British Ad-
miralty is taking prompt steps to re-
store communication with Australia ana
New Zealand. Meanwhile business from
Great Britain aud elsewhere is being
DISPATCHED by the eastern route through
Persia, India and the transcontinental
telegraph across Australia.
Tanning Island lies between New
York Island and Christmas Island, just
above the equator and not far from the
German Samoan Islands recently seized
for the British by the Australasian
battleship Australia. The island is d
mere coral rock, producing only moth
er of pearl and guano, and was an
neXed by Great Britain in 1883 for the
purposes in the "All Red" cable, route,
OF the cable station captured by inc
Germans.
The cable runs from Vancouver to
Auckland, New Zealand, and thence TO
Australia. Tho first portion was laid
in i9O2 and the length ~ Sydney COM
pleted only in December 81, 1912. The
deep sea cable between Vancouver and
flaming is said to be the longest in
the world.
