GERMANY THREATENS HOLLAND
VIII Divert Rhine Traffic by Canal Unless Toli Scheme Is Approved.

London, Aug. 12-The Daily Mail prints a despatch from it's Berlin cor respondent saying that Germany is threatening Holland--that unless Hol- land witbdraws her opposition to Ger rnzny's scheme to impose tolls on Rhine borne shipping, the latter coun- fRT will divert the traffic by con- stFucting a canal via Emden from the German Rhine to the North sea, there by practically killing the lower Rhine as a channel between Rotterdam and the heart of the continent.
 It is recalled that traffic on the Rhine was made tol1-free to all nations by the treaty of 1868. the management of navigation being vested in a cen tral committee representing Alsace- Lorraine, Baden, Bavaria, Hesse, Prus- sia and Holland. Germany has, for some time, been aiming to abrogate the treaty by imposing tolls and trans ferrtng the control of the river, in- cluding the Dutch section, to an in- ternational board in which the balance of power will be vested in the German Rhine states.
