mittee Place Fight.

The Tammany Hall executive com
mittee was yesterday afternoon served
with an order, signed by Justice Ford,
of the Supreme Court, on the applica-
tion of Percy Nagle, to show cause IN
the Supreme Court to-day why Nagle

clared that Murphy told Nagle that 1t
was wrong for him to carry his opposl-
tion to the selection of Frank j. Hen

the executive member.
In the Sd Assembly District, where

Perry and Patrick H. Sullivan, Perry
withdrew from the contest, and Sulli-

GERMAN SUBMARINES
TO CHANNEL BY RAIL?
INV Cable 10 The tribune |

tBy Cable 20 The Tribune
London, Oct. 15.-There is a wide
ly circulated rumor in London to-
night that the Germans expect to
transport by rail to places on the
Belgian and French coasts n num-
Der of submarines, with which to
attack the British fleet. The entire
feasibility Of Transporting subma-
rines overland Is the contention Of
we'll known American engineer
here who has had much to do with
the study OF submarines and the
handling OF submarine mines. He
said to-day:
at would be possible to trans
port submarines by rail from Ger
many to the Belgian or French
coasts once the railroad lines were
secured. but after reaching the
coast then would come the problem
of escaping the British war vessels
or mine fields
The rumors are that the Germans
NAV try TO send the submarines
from near the mouth of fhe Scheldt.

Colonel Maritz's rebellion in the north
west Of the Cape provinces, General

South Africa and commander of the
troops of the Union, is taking the field

PRINZIP GLORIES
in ASSASSINATION
Proud, He Tells Court, of
Having Killed Arch
duke Ferdinand.

Rome, Oct. 15.-Addtional details
have been received here Of the srraign-
ment at Sarajevo on Tuesday of Cav
rio Prinzip, the assassin of Archduke
Francis Ferdinand of Austria, and
Prinzip's wife and twenty-one other
alleged accomplices in the crime.
According to these details Prinzip, in
addition to having admitted that he
shot the Archduke and his wife, de-
clared that, far from repenting his
deed, he was proud of what he had
done. It was not a crime, he said, as
his object was not to kill man, but
to show the world the desperation TO
which the whole Slav population under
Austria had been reduced.
After having tried by every means,
legal and illegal, 10 obtain justice and
recognition Of their rights. Prinzip de-
clared, Austria continued to trample
religion and everything which the Slav
viduals considered most sacred, using
ali the HedPOhS a. ilS ulSposdl.
"The moment arrived when rebellion
was duty" the prisoner went on,
when the only thing possible was to
protest by striking at the individual
who incsrnated such a despotic, retro
grade and cruel organization"
Prinzip grew eloquent as he pro-
cesded, declaring that he was no more
a criminal u an those Hungarian, Ital-
ians, Poles CT Irishmen "who, for the
same distressing conditions in their
countries during the nineteenth CEN
tury. followed Kossuth, Mazzini, Mie-
loslsvski and Daniel 0'Connell in at
tseking tyrknts and tyranny, regardless
Of the means they used"

Neutrality Affected Only
in Idealistic Way, Per-
hapS, Says Lansing.
JAPAN BORROWED
HERE DURING WAR
Fighting Powers Now Expected
to Renew Efforts to Raise
Money in This Country.
IFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Oct. 15.-The doubt that
has existed over the propriety of loans
by private banking institutions of tho
United States to belligerent govern
ments was dissipated to-day by assur-
ances given in high quarters that the
administration does not regard trans
actions of this character as illegal or
in violation of neutrality.
The. statement was made that the
government of the United States held
TO the view of international law that it
was not constrained by the observance
of neutrality to prevent loans to bel
ligerent powers by private individuals
or institutions. Announcement was
made yesterday by the State Depart
ment that "a citizen of the United
States can sell TO a belligerent govern
ment or its agent any article Of com
merce which he pleases." The same
rule, it was said to-day, applied to
loans.
Mr.. Lansing, Acting Secretary OF
State in the absence Of Mr.. Bryan, also
said to-day that there was no legal OBJ
stacle to loans being made by bankers
in this country. The only objection,
he added, was that which, from an
idealistic point of view, might lie
against such transactions on the ground
that by enabling nations at war to pro-
long the conflict they were not in strict
accord with the spirit of neutrality.
Change in Attitude.
Statements made to-day indicated a
chnge on the part Of the administra-
ton from the attitude indicated by
Secretary Bryan in an announcement
replying to inquiries made by Ameri-
can bankers in August. He said at
that time: There is no reason why
loans should not be made to the gov
ernments of neutral nations, but, in
the judgment of this government,
loans by American bankers to any for
eign nation which is at war is incon-
slstent with the true spirit Of neu-
tiality."
1t was understood that in view OF
this declaration j. p. Morgan & Co.
end other bankers dropped negotia'
tions for loan of s100,Oo0,0oO to the
French government.
At the present time, when foreign
governments are making extensive
purchases Of supplies here, this modi-
fcation Of attitude on the part OF the
United States might result in re-
neval Of efforts of the warning nations
20 obtain credit, in the form Of loans,
in this country.
As an instance, it was pointed out
to-day that one government had con-
tracted for the purchase of S,OOO,oOo
raiiroa6 ties. but was unable TO make
the initial payment of $l,00O,oOO. A
loen or extension of credit, 1t was
said. would facilitate business of this
character in a marked degree, and, IN
General. help to solve the question OF
foreign exchange.
Renorts to the State Department IN
Glcate that there are many demands
from the Scandinavian countries, Spain
and other neutral countries for Amer
;con products. particularly cotton
goods and textiles. The chief obstacle
toward the development of trade IN
tbese countries. however, is the break
inc, down of the credit system.

John d. Rockefeller gets what he

so long that every one but the oil

Seven years ago he tried to pur-

his way of thinking and negotiations
we're about TO be concluded when Levy
lost his mind and fell into semi

For seven years he was in stupor,
but not long ago he regained his mind.
The day after it happened Mr.. Rocke-

WOMAN HALTS FIRE PANIC
Seventy Girls Led to Safety

Coolnes on the part of Miss NJ. +.

ker factory, on the fifth floor, and the
Savoy Waist and Dress Company, on
the sixth floor, ran for the front fire
escapes in terror. -.
Miss Snedeker went among the girls
reassuring them, and marshalled them
out in good order. Also, she carried to
the street two girls who had tainted.
She disappeared when the crowd in the
street began to cheer her. and did not

blaze did damage amounting to $4,000,
mostly on the sixth floor.

LONDON AMERICANS
FEARING INVASION
Talk of Appeal to Wilson
as Page Refuses to
Issue Passports.
[By Gable to The Tribune ]

London, Oct. l5.-While some Ameri-
cans here entertain fears of German
invasion, that is not considered by the
United States Embassy as a valid rea-
son at present for departing from the
new rule regarding passports which
has been issued by Ambassador Page.
This ruling was posted at the head
quarters Of the American committee
few days ago and explains:
"The American Ambassador has been
informed by the British government
that mis- majesty's authorities do not
require passports from American citi-
zens for residence or travel in or exit
from the United Kingdom. The am
bassador will therefore no longer issue
passports except in cases where it can
be clearly established that they are
necessary"
While this was explained as the at
titude Of the embassy to day, there was
= modification 70 the eFec. tina. it
might be changed should the fear Of
German invasion OF Britain he based
on more than il now is.
However, numbsr Of resident
Americans have been insisting that the
ambassador has no right to refuse them
passports so long as they can estab-
!ish their right Of citizenship, whether
By birth or naturalization. They be-
lieve il 10 playing safe TO have one, no
matter whether there ~ demand for
il OF not.
