The most reliable of reference books had prepared him for the fifth largest port in the world. According to these works, New York came first upon the . list of the world's greatest seaports, followed by Antwerp, Hamburg, Hong Kong and Rotterdam. Rotterdam led London. The measure of greatness, of course, was the grand total of tons of freight, entered and cleared by each port. Hook of Holland. With- this information about Rotterdam in mind, many an American has strained his eyesight from the forward deck just off the coast of Holland, vainly trying to pick up a skyline like that of New York. All that has rewarded his effort has been a low, barren, desolate stretch of sandy shore, lonely to a point of sadness: This dreary outlook is the Hook of Holland, relieved on nearer inspection by a rambling shed, a combination of baggage and custom houses. There are a few scraggy bushes and dwarf tress in the picture. Probnbly, In nine chaaces out of ten tho tourist has reached thn Hook after the turn of the tide. In which case he has had to land there. in July, an unmerciful sun beats down on this tongue of la'nd, which, together with the pigmy train waiting upon the smoky sands to carry the passengers to Rotterdam, makes the traveler almost feci that he has< been landed in sleepy Africa by mistake. There is nothing about thn Hook of Holland or the narrow, shal low ribbon or water, which 104,11 to Rotterdam to aid him in reallii.g the magnitude of the port but an b pur's ride away. Greatest Neutral Seaport. Rotterdam is today Europe's great, est neutral seaport. The vast business of Antwerp and Hamburg has ceased. London is an object for the enterprise of war. The shipping to western Europe can alone rest completely secure in the harbor of Rotterdam, and this port city has become one of the busiest of places, for the purchase of all central Europe, will pour through its spiral streets Ideally situated Tor handling the oversea commerce of central Europe, peopled by a race of skillful merchants and traditional. sailors, connected with all the principal markets of the hinterland by the wonderful system of railways which branch out from here and roach Germany, France and Austria, Rotterdam has always done a remarkable shipping despite keenest competition. This city has earned a great part of its wealth during the last three score years through the handling or German Imports and the vast exports to every corner or the world from the Khlno manufacturing district. Thes* goods have been mostly sent down the Rhine to Rotterdam and by the Dutch reshlpped to their destinations. It was in order to proservo this business In German hands, that the Empire undertook the construe- ' tlon of the Dortinund-Ems canal, at $20,000,000, connecting the Industrial Rhino country with a German port on the North sea.

Since the day when great powers first conceived a familiar Interest in its existence, Heligoland has been dedicated to war. In 1890 Great Britain and Germany entered into aj treaty defining the spheres of their' Inlluence in East, West and Southwest Africa, and In return for the German recognition o the protectorate of Great Britain over Zanzibar, Lord Salisbury, in behalf of his government, ceded Heligoland to Germany. Since that time it has been usurped -by the German .vacationist for a summer playground. Its interests are three-fold; military, tourist and industrial. Its industrial interests are its -.-ast concern, being of importance only to the few hundred fir,her folk who have faith enough in ' their little rock to pass their lives av ay upon it. Heligoland properly'consists of two ' islands, one of n high rocky plateau. , of military significance, and the oth- I er, a great drifting pile of sand, pro- i tected by engineering works against SSTROYED BY THE SATING BEFORE RUSS .:_; ;l assises, the Anstrians destroyed this ' the recent fighting when the cast's ians before then* ...
