Appeal for New Survey Made byAciv- }roHc Congress men.

fFV>rn Tlie Tribune BonsS 1Washington. March i-An appeal for a new sur-

vey of the Potat j,ji,h harror of refuge in theinterest of passenger and freight traffic there hasbeen made to the Rivers and Harbors Committeeof the House by New-York Congressmen at theinstance of the New-York Board of Trade andTransportation. The New-York Representativeswill try to prevail on the committee to report theAldrieaj resolution passed by the Ser.ate lwhich di-rects the Secretary of War to inform congresswhether changed conditions require a change Inthe plans for the main breakwater of the harborof refuge, and. Ifno, to submit revised plans andestimates.

The effort to have the plans for deepening thepassage .hanged is largely due to a report by thearmy assistant engineer at Newport. R. 1., havingthe work la charge. Ha says that the harbor maybe protected from fi!lin« up with Pand by changingthe plan of urn westerly unfinished part of themam breakwater so as to build it out from theshore.

Chairman Burton or the Rivers an Harbors Com-aatttea, when asked about the plan to-day, indi-cated that It would meet with little success at thissession of Congress.

"It is not likely'that this Congress willagree tomore survey* of river and harbor projects-

hesaid, -and if one were granted the multitude ofothers would have to receive the same treatment.Ifthere appears to be need for a change of plan, anInvestigation by a board of the engineer depart-

A SUGGESTION MADE IX GERMANY.

Means of Identification Requiredin France.

[From The Tribune Bureau.]Washington. March The present high tension

well France and Germany increases the neces-sity for Americans going: abroad this season to pro-vide themselves with means of readily proving theirIdentity, \u25a0apeefally in France Unless Continentalconditions become leaa strained

—and the prospect is

that they are rather more likely to grow worse—

thefai'.ure to procure passports will cause travellersmuch anxiety and annoyance. The Department ofState has received from the consulate general atFaxis a caution on this subject, from which it ap-pears that the Fren< h law requires the registrationof all foreigners who go there to reside, includingstudents This registration la done at the offices ofthe Prefect of Police in Paris or Lyons, or at theoffice of the Mayor In other parts of Frame Anychange of address must also be communicated tothe 'ice. To secure this registration and theBnja'l certificate of identity the person must furnishalt or a passport duly vised or a consular affidavit.

Two Incidents Cram very many will illustrate theimportance of carrying everywhere papers toidentify the bearer. A we.l known American womangoing, to church on? Sunday morning was knockeddown by a cab- Though not hurl she was insensiblefor several hours. No one kneei who she eras, aridaha canted no paj:er> of any kind. Arrayed incostly olothrs and oaring valuable Jewelry, t..0j>< ;i<-e were impressed and took every care of her.out sh«» whs taken to a city Iwsjillbl Upon recover-ing she was taken to her hotel Had she carrier] acard or addressed elope much lr<~on'>would have he*!) avoided. A bright Americanartist, unable to F^.-.-ik French, had a mlsunder-standlna <.n the Itreel with a FrfM'hman. ho dp-nounced him to th* ii.j;;.-e. T!-> latter. being unabletr> ascertjlri arho be was or what be was doing inFaris, huetWd him eff to prison as a dangerous orsaspletoaa character. After a fortnight in jail hethought of r:is consul, and demanded to be broughtto him. This step brought shoot explaoatioas an.lBberty on condition that the young man r»-KiPtf-rediinm*-diaTPiy with thr pottee. Had h»- carried papersesiablisl.lng his identity a painful and humiliating

rl<-n'' w.ujld li^ve be"n spared him. The pass-port is another important means of IdentUleatlon.the V/tIfW'Wl OSS <~f which is for entering and depart-ing; from the frontiers i f European tommies. Thepassport is also of lmni^nse value to a fath«-,r whoi.HS to es:a* ;!sh ills* foreign citizenship in order toclaim exemption for hi» s^u fn>m military peHTlceThe passport is also useful to the automobilist,espa tally when touring in an out of thf srayplace.

-!ng cash on a DSOBey <>r<ler awaiting :^'•'r:! at theposteHtoe Money orders nusht tif made payable ata ronsulste and ;A\ trouble and delay avoided

Briefly, ati American desiring to travel or remain[a France a/0] add greatly to Hf 'omfon and avoidmany a difficulty by providing himself with all themeans of identification.

ATTEMPT AT MlKDEB.

HIGHFINANCE INNAVY—Paymaster John H.Merriam. V. S N . on duty at the Washington NavyYard, narrowly escaped a loss of $300 by the failureof some "ne :ri authority to notify him officially

that Warren E. O. Hiph had been dropped from theUnited States navy ai r.r. assistant surgeon lastNovember. Since that time the navy paymaster hasbeen sending periodical checks to High, who hasevidently accepted them. It was oaly by accidentthat Paymaster Merriam dlscoTored High's separa-tion from the service, and he started out at oncein Bursuit of the former r.avai surgeon, and thelatter was found at ErK Per.n. and steps weretaken, through the District Attorney, to have Higharrested. In the mean time ilerriam had held upthe ?ast check sent to High and obtained from Highalso the money whi'-h had been erroneously paid tohim. This relieved the. naval paymaster from asubstantial loss which under the r*-p'.. .:;ons bewould have had to hear himself ir is altogether un-usual for h naval officer who has resigned or whohas be*n dropped or dismissed ir. gn on receivinghla T irlv Ordinarily the restrictions are altogetheragainst any such gratuity.

The ..ffl.-er was officially re-ported recently for "reprehensible conduct" inmaking use of the naval title In connection with abusiness concern, and especially for using a titlewhich he really hud no right to employ in con-nection with his name under any circumstances.A defect in the proceedings appears to have beenthat tho recommendation of departmental repri-mand of Prindle was made before lhat offlc-r waspermitted tn offer hla dc fl r.^f, wh:<*h alleged thathe. alt!

Prindle willbe obliged to do this or Incur the risk of disputingthe ordt-rs of his superiors. Naval officers aremuch interested in this case on account of therecent dim ll—ll»m of the use of line titles by staffofficers, although in this particular Instance there

TO CONSIDER DEMAKDS TO-MORROW

The article of Willett & Gray, in par:. follows:Acrisis seems to await Cuba in its sugar interests

within the next three or four yean The prosper-ity which came from the reciprocity treaty withth« nlted States is not likely to last much be-yond that time. Steadily and more rapidly evantaare moving toward this end. To retain the marketof the United States for its entire product Cubamust Boon ?lve away its entire advantage under th«treciprocity treaty. The annual increase in the pro-duction of sugar which pays less duty than Cubanin the United States will cause this result.

Already, during the year 1906. Cuba came intosuch close, contact with sugars of foreign countrieswhich pay fullPingley rates of duty In the UnitedStates that in order to compete and sell the entireproduction of her island she was compelled to un-dersell the beet root sugar markets of Europe tothe extent of 13 c^nis a hundred pounds, which13 cents came out of the 34 cents a hundred poundsallowed her by the reciprocity bill.

Only by this concession she reduced the Importsof European beet sugar into the United States toleas than twenty-five thousand tons in 1906. Theconsumption of all sugar in the United State« InIMS which paid the full duty rates «a» only 43&.353tons, against ttt5,733 tons in I*l4. The consumptionof foretim sugar paying full duties in HUM shouldbe further reduced to 2^.296 tona, according to theestimate of crops for »he year which receive ad-vantages under our thrift. At the present rate oftncr<»ati* of such crops, the year !9H should showan end of importation of foreign sugar paying thefull duty rates. What will happen then? Con-sumption rises only at the rate of about 5 per centper annum, while sugar production of favored in-

terests rises at a much faster rate. The countrypaying the highest rate of duty will be the firstto feel the elects of overproduction of favoredsugars. Th« Cuban reciprocity treaty ends on De-cember 27. IMS, and, whether renewed or not, <*Tjba

will begin to be shut out of the Ur.lted Statesmarket for some portion at least of her crop bythe Increased production of non-duty-pajine sugarsof Porto Rico. Hawaii, domestic cane and domrsttcbeet sugars and the lesser paying duties of thePhilippine Islands Under special favoritism thecrops of Porto Rico have Increased in eight yearsfrom HUM tons in ls3S to 210.<*>0 tons" in l£«*i.Hawaiian crops under reciprocity in I»T6 to !£*»and free trade since have increased from 10,C»<» tor.ain ISTo to 331.062 tons In 19»C and to 370.0C0 tons in1906. Domestic cane crops of Louisiana and Texasincreased from HUBS tons in lsS7 to ?12.iM> tons in

OH Domestic beet sugar crops have Increasedfrom 12.01S tons in IS-?, to MjMtons in 190«. ThePhilippine Island crops, which were reduced to5.".f>00 tons in 1901 by the plague cf rinderpest.which destroyed the caribou or cattle sac forfield work, a temporary affliction not requiringspecial legislation for all time to remedy, willpro-due? 12T.,0t*i tons of si.gar In li*>>.

The production in 1906 of all these sugar indus-tries protected from competition to the extent oftheir production, leaves but 223.295 tons of foreignfull duty paying sugar required for the consump-tion of the United States In 190*. allowing the aboutIper cent normal average increase of consumptionover IMS. Inconfirmation of the steady and mowrapid trend of the encroachment of petitionbetween the present protected sujmr interests. w»call attention to the decrease in the amounts offull duty paying foreign sugars which have ?on*Into consumption in the T'n: ed State* in recenty«-ars. In 1S91) we used 632.920 tons of Europeanbeet sugar against 24.it," tons tn 1903; in 1902 weused 25>.41 <i tons of West India sugar other thanCuba and Porto Rim. against M.141 tons fa 19<>5.In1901 we used 141.0S tons at Brazil sugar against21,333 tons in 1905. In 1900 we used 351. 952 tonsof Java sugar, ajjainst 397.905 tona In IS"4 and353.916 tons in 190.,. Java hns thus far held Its ownagainst competition better than any other full dutyrmying country, but it can hop« to do so only alittle longer.
