SUGAR PLANT IN HAWAII.
One to Be Erected Will Be the Largest
in the World, Says Recent
Report.

The Honolulu iron works has beer
awarded the contract to build fol
Alexander & Baldwin's sugar planta-
ton, at Makewei, the biggest sugar
mill in the world 1t will be a twelve
roller mill, with revolving cane-cutters
and a Krajetski-Pesant cane-crusher
says the Honolulu Bulletin Mr. Hede-
mann, of the Honolulu iron works, when
asked about the contract said:
1.-THE new MakaweH sugar plant will
consist of a 34-inch by 7S-inch Kraje-
tewski-Pesant cane-crusher all driven
by two Corliss engines. This is, per-
haps, the most complete milling outfit
in the world and it is gratifying to note
that the Hawaiian Sugar company, by
it's board of directors ard its president.
H. P. Baldwin, have manifested such
progressive and enterprising spirit in
establishing this advance and elaborate
machinery installation in order to OBJ
tain the highest possible results
All of this machinery. excepting the
engines. will be built by the Honolulu
Iron Works company in the shops of
Kakaako. The contract was awarded
in competition with eastern engineers
and builders.
1.-The new machinery" said Mr. Hede-
mann, will displace the only remain
ing diffusing plant in the islands, and
it will be erected in a new steel struc-
ture building during the year 1905. and
be in operation on the increased crop
of 1906. To our knowledge there is but
one other 12-roller mill in the world in
operation. This Is the original nine
roller mil at Oa"I plantation. which
was converted last year by the Honolulu
iron works. under the direction of Mr.
Lorenz. the consulting engineer for H
HaekfieId & Co.. into a 12-rolIer mill.
In the Oahu mill exceptional high trac-
ton has been obtained during the sea-
son. with increased capacity. and no
extra fuel used. The Oahu Plantation
mill has also furnished power for a 200
horse power electric plant for outside
purposes. ali by the use OF bagasse as
fuel"

Of barley had been reaped. and the
work of garnering had just begun. The

sudden whirlwind almost in an instant
swept the whole field clear. The grain
rose to a great height in the air. was
then turned over and finally dis2p-
peared In distance. coming down in

was the occurrence that everything had
disappeared, while the amazed harvest
ers stood with their implements in
their hands. From the whole field not
so much as one CARLOAD could be

Gov. Hoch's speech Tuesday was
remarkable for what he did not say
about Ton Kelly, and the rotten state
of affairs into which the Burton part
of the state house crowd has; gotten
things. Neither did he say anything
about that same crowds stealing of
the senatorship from this district four
years ago. Evidently he thinks
silence is'golden. But, if Mr.. Kelly
is good enough to be on the ticket,
he should be defended.
