Socialist Who Shouted
"Stop the War" is Not
Honored in France

Correspondence OF The Associated Press.)
Paris, Oct. 12.-Pierre Brizon, the
socialis, deputy who recently called
upon Premier BRAND ito stop the
war" and gave the premier occasion
to deliver in the chamber one of the
most eloquent speeches of his career.
is not taken seriously in France, but
some portions of the address he de-
livered in opposing the war credits
are interesting, He is one of the three
dissident social deputies who met a
number of German SPECIALISTS during
the war in conference in Switzerland.
In the course of his attempt in the
chamber to arrive at calculation Of
what the war costs, he said:
How many men shall we have lost
at the end of the warl have said
that it will last another year still. at
least with the policy Of Monsieur
BRAND. Surprising that, at the end
of the war, France has million and
half of men killed. Going back to
our calculation OF the value of their
work and taking an average of thirty
three years of effective labor for each
man, we reach the sum Of 100000
francs for each individual. Multiply
100000 by 100000, and you obtain
$50 million francs as the economic
value of the Frenchmen who will have
| been killed during the war.
Thus we have the three figures
fifty billions and more public expendi-
lures at the present time; in year
more thirty billions more. making a
total of eighty billions for public ex-
penditures. Let us estimate five bill
lions for the reparation of war dam
ages, making eighty-five billions, to
which we must add our old debt, that
we are too likely to forget in these
days, of thirty billions, which makes
lis billions. There is the gulf that is
to be filled in actual cash, which,
added to the 100 billions of economic
loss, brings the cost of the war up to
3l5 to 500 billions of francs"
Yes, in the capitalstic period in
which we have lived for century
past, wars, colonial wars, and the
present war is nothing but business.
Nov business is treated in bust
ness way, intelligently, prudently,
with clear eyesight upon the future.
Instead OF giving the blood of his
country, if Monsieur BRAND could
obtain tM result that we wish to at
tain-victory, according to you, or
national independence that we all OF
us want-by negotiation or through
intermediates, we can, and we ought

it captured the schooner Archer.
Read approaching that many vessels
must by this time be in search of him,
decided to quit the Tacony. This he
did by transferring to the Archer,
after which the Tacony was fired.
Still Roams Sea.
Read now planned to slip into Port
land, Me, and cut out a steamer at
that port. He passed into the port
with the Archer without being chal-
lenged and about 9 o'clock of June
Is he carried by boarding the cutter
Caleb Cushing This was a two
masted sailing craft Before cutting
out the Cushing the alarm was sound
ed and Read found it expedient to
get to sea as quickly as possible.
Manning the Gushing lie made sail
and managed to clear the harbor, but
by morning the wind failed and the
Cushing was surrounded by several
excursion steamers filled with troops
from the port, and at II 80 a. m. Of
June 81 Read surrendered to the
military on the steamer Forest City.
The advent of the Tacony on the
American coast produced record Of
alarms seldom paralleled in history.
The Navy department was deluged
with kilograms for fortnight
The commandants at the Philadel-
phia, New York and Boston navy
yards were ordered to send out every
available craft, to charter and seize,
if need be, any suitable craft capable
of steaming within forty-eight hours.
A week after the first instructions
were sent out the Navy department
wired to charter more vessels. In all
more than forty steamers cruised in
search OF the Tacony, but not once
was that vessel sighted. The whole
occurrence indicated. naval men say,
that il is of little use to inaugurate a
search unless it is done in an intel
ligent manner and there was every
indication that the search for the
Tacony in 1868 was without any
central control.
Cordons Useless.
The Tacony affair has been used
as striking illustration in naval
problems in matters having to do with
scout patrols. 1t was afterward
shown that several Of the searching
craft were at times very close to the
Tacony. but owing to a well-estab-
lished system of control the Confed-
crate was able to slip through the
Gordon that it was attempted to form.
A year later the Confederate cruis-
er Tallahassee made dash out of
Wilmington. N. C.. cruised as far
north as Halifax and after absence
OF almost twenty days, until her re-
turn to Wilmington, burned or scut-
tied thirty-one American vessels. The
work OF destruction was accomplished
in ten days of actual time, the re-
naming ten days being spent in cruis-
ing.
Commander J. N. Moffit on the
Florida made a rapid passage over
the Atlantic coast and then reached
over on long leg to the Azores. He
also passed over the coast, but at no
instance was the CONSERVATION created
so great as in the case Of the raid as
made by Read with his twenty men
in the Tacony.

~ FIFTEEN minutes of twelve!
A brief quarter of an hour later
and all the town bells would be
madly ringing; the factory whis-
ties would be footing; horns would
shrill raucously; the restless crowds
surging aimlessly through the streets
would raise voices in the hysterical
pandemonium that customarily wakes
the dying year into extinction.
"Then," said Myrtle the telephone
girl to herself, "then my busy time
commences. Every lunatic in town
will begin trying to get his or her
friends on the wire to yell Happy
New Year Everybody will be want
ing their numbers at once and all sore
because the telephone company hasn't
put in 5000 extra wires for their es-
pecial convenience tonight"
The metal loop with the receiver at
her ear had grown irksome and heavy
on Myrtle's head. Her hand raised to
adjust it more comfortably just as
one of the little white lights flashed on
before her.

"Why don't you listen as you're paid
to do?" growled back a mans voice
over the wire. His articulation was
thick, hoarse. Evidently he was labor
ing under some tremendous strain.
However it is not for the mere tele-
phone operator to resent, whatever her
provocation.
"4111, thank you," said Myrtle in
the same pleasantly modulated tone as
before and made the proper connec-
ton. But not even then being certain
