A LONG FLUME.

HILO, December 2S.-The eleven
mile fiume being constructed by the
Olaa Sugar Co. for the purpose of con-
Quoting water from Kaumana to Olaa
is Of inch and one-quarter red wood.
Scarcity of this class of lumber will de-
lay construction. Efforts are being
made to conserve the water at the head
of the stream. AS to quantity, it is
said that during the recent dry period
the water in that portion of the flume
already constructed measured 22O min
er's inches.
Any dispute there may have been be-
tween the HilO Sugar Company and the
Olaa Sugar Company regarding the
right to the stream has been satisfac-
torly adjusted. The Oaa Co. has
agreed to allow Manager Scott the use
of the water for irrigating the vast
tracts of cane land in Kaumana and,
it is said, in consideration of this any
water on the Hilo Sugar Company's
upper lands is at the disposal Of the
Olla Co
