ROTTERDAM, NotherlnndB, Aug.
30. (Correspondence of the Associ
ated Press.) Rotterdam's shljiplng
trarflc last year fell to the level or
the year 1870 as regards the number
of ships, and to tlio level of 18112 In
respect of tonnage, according to the
annual report of tho Rotterdam
Chamber of Commerce. The shipping
arrivals of the whole country num
bered 6,114, with a not tonnage of
4,681,117, ns compared with ii,351
ships measuring 6,(121,478 In 1916.
Traffic with Spain, Russia, Rou
manla and many other iJuropenn
countries Is entirely at a standstill,
and that with Africa almost in a llko
condition. Nearly half of Rotter
dam's shipping, traffic was carried
on with Billuln, Norway and Sweden.
The other half was with tho United
States and Argentina, whence came
the country's grain Imports.
A large part of the Rhino fleet
was employed In the transport of
gravel from Germany and Holland
ovor Inland waterways to Belgium.
This material Ib destined for Her
man military and other uscb, and Its
conveyance through Dutch waters
has not been viewed with much favor
to the entente powers. Holland
maintains that such transport Is per
missible under international law, and
that in these clrcuniBtnncos strict
neutrality forbids prevention of the
traffic. Another considerable part
of the Rhine fleet, In tho absence of
the usual busy traffic with Germany

The following taken from the Glas
gow Allssourian, gives a full account
of the funeral of the late Benjamin
Cameron, who formerly resided with
his sister, Mrs. Amanda Roadman,
In this city, and was well and favor
ably known in Douglas county where
he had a host of friends:
The fuuoral services of Benjamin
Cameron were held at the residence
of his sister, Mrs. Ed Eagleston, Mon
day afternoon, the 10th Inst, at 1:30
o'clock, conducted by Dr. C. C. Hem-
en way. The services began with a
brief Invocation and the singing of
"What a Friend We Hav in Jesus,"
by Misses Athleen Prichett and Myra
Wengler. Dr. Hemenway then read
Psalms 23 and 90, and -from First
Corinthians, chapter 15, on the Res
urrection. He then made a short
address based on the 00th Psalm,
which is entitled "A Prayer of
Mosos." Dr. Hemenway said that tho
psalm was a meditation on human
lire, its brevity, its disappointing and
painful experiences, Its capacity for
knowledge and wisdom, and ability
to exert Influence and accomplish re
sults that cun be permanent. Moses
first compares man's lire with the
eternal existence of God and finds
that human lire ln the comparison is
llko a plant which blooms and fudes
in a day. Even at its longest of four
scoro years it is full of anxiety and
disappointment and pain. With this
frank and clear view of life, Moses
prays that, by these experiences, he
may be able to gain wisdom and to
see the character of God and the
glory of his divine plan and purpose
I'or ub; and finally that "the beauty
of tho Lord may rest upon him."
ThlB last petition Is for purity of
heart and righteousness of conduct
which is the beauty of the Lord seen
ln the llfo of his people. Moses con
cludes with the request that his life
work may survive his Bhort life and
bo permanently established In Influ
ence over othors.
Dr. Hemenway gave a brief sketch
of Mr. Cameron's life. He was born
in Newport, Tonn., August 5, 1852,
and died In the home of his sister, In
Glasgow, Mo., September 8, 1017.
When a young man he came with his
paronts nnd their family to Mis
souri. Aftor a few years he went to
the far west and made his home with
his Iwln sister ln the state of Ore
gon. Ho was nevor married. The
low nltitiulo and climate of Oregon
finally affected hlB heart, so thnt he
came east for relief, nut the change
did not avail. Ho spent a short time
In Slater with a brother, nnd then
cnnie to Glasgow, surviving but a few
days. Ho was ono of a family of 12
children, seven of whom survive him.
