Prediction Mad by Paul Leroy. Bean
lieu, Political Economist, In Address
In Paris.
Paris, Oct. 19. Paul Leroy Beau
lieu, the political economist, continue
his address on the financial aspects
of the war before the Academy of
Moral and Political Sciences today. He
estimated the length of the war at
seven months, as in 1870. Each ' of
the five great nations participating in
the war, he said, would spend one
billion francs ($200,000,000). Adding
to this the expenses of the smaller
nations and the neutral countries on
account of the war, would make the
grand total which all the govern
ments would be forced to face at from
45,000,000,01)0 to 50,000,000,000 francs
($'J,00t, 000,000). The liquidation of
the colossal sums which will have to
be paid if the vvai is likely to extend,
according to 1. Heaulieu, from three
to . five years, , will absorb the
greatest part of the world's savings.

REVOLT OF SPANISH
SUBJECTS
NORTH
AFRICA IS MENACE
Serious Situation Faces King
Alfonso and More Troops
Will Be Needed.
AGITATORS GETTING BUSY
Anti-Patriotic Teachings Have Af
fected Minds of Large Number of
Spanish, It Is Declared.
(United Press Leaned Wire.)
Gibraltar, Oct. 19. Spain faces a
very serious situation as a result of
renewed discontent among its subjects
in North Africa.
All advices from its territories
there indicate that a formidable re
volt las begun among the natives and
there seemed little question today
that King Alfonso faces what, for
his country, will be a campaign of
considerable proportions.
This inevitably will mean calls at
home for troops in noticeable numbers.
The Spanish are accustomed to the
maintenance of a small African mili
tary establishment, and though they
do not look on it with friendly eyes,
at least submit to it.
How they regard the calling out of
reservists for service in this field,
however, was demonstrated a few
years ago when the Riff campaign
precipitated the Barcelona riots and
disorders, in other districts, which nar
rowly missed developing into a genu
ine revolution
Population Is Divided.
There can be no question that the
country would be as hostile to drafts
tor similar purposes at the present
time as they were when it happened
before, and in the present instance
there are many signs that an uprising
now would be more effective than, the
last one.
The Spanish peasantry has been sat
urated with communistic doctrines tor
years, and it was at communism that
the masses of the people aimed at
the time of-their previous rebellion.
Their weakness was their lack of
homogeneity. The population is di
vided into a number of very distinct
races, much as eastern Austria is
divided, and these different groups
did not pull well together.
Had the country risen en masse
there is little question that King Al
fonso's government would have been
overthrown, but the Outbreaks were
scattering and the authorities -vere
able to deal with them one at a time,
finally succeeding in suppressing them
completely. Leaders of the popular
movement say why it had failed, and
have worked untiringly ever since to
weld the rank and file together po
litically. Trouble Is Foreseen.
Good judges of conditions in Spain
say they have met with much success.
Fresh trouble in Africa does not
seem to have been foreseen by them,
the government having been careful
to keep news of the unrest among the
natives from reaching Spain.
The European war put them on the
alert, however. Ever . since the con
flict became imminent the would be
revolutionists have been putting the
finishing touches on their organiza
tion that all might be in readiness to
strike if the country should be drawn
into the struggle, wnich they undoubt
edly earnestly hoped would happen.
Anti-patriotic teachings have been
thoroughly instilled in the minds of
a large proportion of the Spanish for
a long time, and the workers did not
think the war fever would burn as
'brightly in Spain as elsewhere in
