DIVISION OF THE SOCIALIST
 PARTY IN FRENCH CHAMBER
Said to Foreshadow a Complicated
 Conflict in That Party.

Paris, July The division of the Socialist party in the Chamber of Deputies on the question of peace and the proposed economic war foreshad- ows a complicated conflict in that par ty.
 The revolutionary Socialists demand an immediate. armistice,. while the more moderate voted the war appro- priations because they are in favor of peace only through the final victory of the Allies. The moderate socialists declare, however, that they will not accept a prolongation, in an economic war, of the disasters of the European again divided since they had in their ranks Jules Guesde, Minister of State without portfolio, Marcel Sembat, Minister of Public Works, and Albert Thomas, Under Secretary of War; who, as members of the government, are committed to the policy of economic measudes against the central empires after the war.
 Eighty seven of the 106 Socialists of the Chamber signed the statement in favor of continuing the war and against a subsequent economic con- fiict. Three of them, Heri Brizon, Alexandre Blanc and Raff1n Dugens- all of them former school teachers and members of the prohibited school teachers union-voted against the ap- prOpriations and demanded an immedi- ate peace.
 Three more, in the cabinet, are com mitted to both war to finish and an economic battle afterwards.

DESCRIPTION OF BRITISH
 SYSTEM OF BLOCKADE
Presented to the Members of the
 American Luncheon Club.

London, July 25.-The most detailed description of the British system of blockade which has been framed was presented to the members of the Amer ican Luncheon Club by Sir Frank Newnes, in an address delivered at the last meeting of the club. Sir Frank is the head of a great publish ing firm founded by his father. He is a member of the Royal Volunteer Naval Reserve, and is acting as As sistant Secretary of the Committee on Detention of Neutral Ships presided over by Lord Peel.
 Sir Frank called attention to the fact that the blockade was not es- tablished until the Order of Council of March, 1915, was issued, and that the total stoppage of Germany's enormous trade, all done through neu- trals, was a gigantic and difficult bus mess. He remarked: Tt has been the desire of the British government in carrying out an effective blockade of Germany to interefere as little as they possibly can in the ordinary trade between neutrals, and in fact they have been strongly criticized at home as having considered the interests of the neutra1s too much"
