GLOOM In DUTCH
SHIPPING CIRCLES
Holland Sees Its Big Over
seas Trade Slipping
AWAY from 1t.

Rotterdam, March 2.-The British
Premier's declaration, while not caus-
ing great surprise in Holland, has
nevertheless created something ilke
gloom in Dutch shipping circles. When
the war began all German exports
we're diverted from German ports to
Holland, whose shipping lines have
since been carrying on a big trade III
Goods rot on the contraband list.
All this is now stopped, and very
big trading interests are naturally at
fccted. 1t is computed, for instance,
that quite 60 per cent Of the trade OF
one line will be stopped by the new
policy Of the Al'ies. There are sew
eral things which ordinarily would be
non-contraband that can only be OBJ
toined from Germany, and the need OF
those. it is believed. will be sorely
felt in neutral countries, while the
Dutch colonies, which use large guam
titles Of cheap German machinery, wl!l
also be affected.
In Amsterdam there is a disposition
to do nothing at present owing TO the
fact that cargoes now at sea are not
affected by the declaration. 1t - also
pointed ont that the stagnation which
followed the declaration Of war has not
lasted. and shippers prefer to wait
and see if some means cannot be found

Miss Bodenstad feared 10 return, and
accepted what Kempe told her was the
only alternative 10 become his wife,
which she did. The couple were mar
