SOME ENTHUSIASM
AT LAST DRUMMED!
UP BY PACIFICISTS
Meeting at Stockholm Charac
terized as Greatest Demon
stration Since War Started
By Associated l'ress
Stockholm, Dec. 28, via London. —
The public meeting held last night un
der the auspices of the Ford Peace
Expedition is characterized here as
the most enthusiastic demonstration
for peace that Europe has seen since
the war began. -»>* early a thousand
citizens of Stockholm attended. Every
mention of the end of the war pro
longed long applause.
When Louis Lochner, secretary of
the expedition, announced that the
executive committee had secret infor
mation that certain ones of the bel
ligerent nations were willing to nego
tiate for peace the meeting became
tumultuous. "It would astonish the
world," said Mr. Lochner, "If we made
known at this time what influences
are at work for peace. This informa
tion has been in the possession of the
executives of the expedition ever since
we sailed from New York. It was the
real encouragement behind the expe
dition. We have every assurance that
our project will meet with favor, al
though at this time it connot be said
just what is behind the movement."
The Rev. Charles F. Aked, of San
Francisco, declared In his speech that
lie regretted to say that America was
not giving the peace Idea such support
as might be desired. He found fault
with President Wilson for what he
characterized as the President's failure
to take the initiative in leading neu
trals in a peace movement.
The committee announced that Swe
den and Norway had arranged to send
unofficial delegations and that citi
zens from other neutral countries will
attend the final peace conference. The
expedition leaves Wednesday night for
Copenhagen. From that point it will
proceed to the Hague, possibly by rail
way through Germany.
Three More Members of

stricken with influenza and has been
removed to St. Joseph's Hospital In

it is a desperate scheme showing that

Regard French Loan
as Splendid Security
London, Dec. 28. The London
linanciai papers point to the French
loun as the most attractive govern
ment security that has been launched
since the beginning of the war. The
price of 88 per cent, of the five per
cent, rents means a yield of nearly
5% per cent., while M.he English or
American investor, with the addition
al advantage of an unusual exchange
rate, obtains a yield considerably
higher.
It is interesting to note in this
connection what happened to the
French loans issued in connection
with the Franco-Prussian war of'
1870. In spite of the fact that on
that occasion France was defeated
and was required to pay a heavy in
demnity, the loans quickly rose to
par. The French loans of 1870 and
1872, bearing 5 per cent, interest,
were issued at 82.50 and 84.50. By
1870 they were quoted in the market
at. as high as 106, and they went on
rising until 1880 when they reached
120.85, their highest. They were sub
seauently. converted.
SLEUTH BUREAU
IS LAID OVER
See Further Widening of Po
litical Breach in This.
Postponement
The ordinance creating the "bureau
of detectives," to be headed by a cap
tain at $1,500, offered in City Council
several weeks ago by Commissioner
Harry F. Bowman at the request of
Mayor-elect Ezra S. Meals, was post
poned at this afternoon's session of
Council.
"Until after the new administration
begins," explained Mr. Bowman in ask
ing for potsponement, "so that Mayor
Meals may vote and talk on the meas
ure." Mr. Lynch seconded his co
member's move.
And that latest development once
more agitated city political circles.
In the act of postponement the gos
sips foresee a further widening of the
breach between Mayor-elect Meals and
Commissioners Bowman and Lynch.
And it will remain so, it is said, until
—the question of whether M. Harve.v
Taylor or Harry F. Oves is to be city
treasurer is settled. Bowman and
Lynch, 'tis said, insist upon Oves;
Meals is at least noncommittal.
Council passed on second reading
the city budget ordinance for 1916. It
provides for a total expenditure of
$599,379.82. The liiillage ordinance
providing for a 9% mill tax rate was
offered this afternoon. Both will be
passed finally at a special meeting at
3.30 o'clock Friday afternoon.
The city assessorship ordinance, car
rying a $2,000 salary for this official,
was passed finally. The qualification
requiring three years' experience in
buying and selling real estate was
stricken out. Mr. Bowman's water de
partment budget was amended to pro
vide an appropriation of $5,000 for
various city funds, thus swelling his total
estimated expenditure to $122,179.93.
What will likely be Commissioner
Taylor's last ordinance provides for
acquirement by the city of five acres
of Prospect Hill Cemetery land for the
city parkway drive. Mr. Taylor will
confer at 9 o'clock to-morrow with
Herman P. Miller relative to the pur
chase of five additional acres. Coun
cil also decided on motion of Mr. Tay
lor to liang Mayor John K. Royal's
picture in the councilmanic presiden
tial picture gallery. Mayor Royal
smilingly voted "no."
After the Council meeting Messrs.
Bowman, Lynch and Commissioner
elect Gross got together in low-voiced
confab. Now and then they laughed.
And when Mr. Bowman was asked if
he'd say whereof the trio was talking
he laughingly declared:
"Sure, Mr. Gross was telling us a
little story about spilled gravy!"
Mayor-elect Meals did not attend
to-day's meeting.
A MIRACLE OF THE CENTURY
The moral miracle of the century
is the fight the nations of Europe are
making on alcohol as a war measure.
Do the ages present a much more
sublime picture than that of the poor
peasant of Russia who had grown to j
be a proprietor, who at the open
coffin of the wife of one of his tenants
slain by rum took a vow before God
to spend his life lighting vodka and
so impressed that hatred on the
175,000,000 of his countrymen that
it was translated into a law of the
empire? He persuaded the Czar to
prohibit vodka during the mobiliza
tion of forces. Prohibition during
mobilization worked so well that it
was extended till the close of the war.
The head of Russian finance, in an
interview recently, said that prohibi
tion was a success beyond expecta
tion; that the efficiency of the peas
antry had been increased one-third;
that vice and crime had decreased in
a marked degree, and that the de
posits in the savings banks had in-'
creased one-third. The Christian
