SEA PREVAILING WHEN VESSEL
SAILED THIS MORNING.

The S. S. Alameda departed shortly
after 8 o'clock this morning for San
Francisco with a light crowd of pas
sengers, there being only eleven in the
cabin. The vessel is rather light with
cargo and as there is a strong trade
blowing she probably began pitching
and rolling the instant she rounded
Diamond Head. A large crowd was
present to see the vessel depart.
George F. Henshall of The Star edi-
torial staff was a departing passenger.
He will pass several months in Califor-
mia on his vacation.

Attorney Withington's explanation
of the position of his clients, the Am
erican- Hawaiian Engineering & Con-
struetion Company, in the asylum
building controversy gets beyond me-"
said Superintendent Holloway of the
Board of Public Works this morning
apparently he says that the require
ment of a pressure Of at least 400
pounds to the square inch is 'fraudu-
lent on its face because there is no
known machine which does not give
over 800 pounds and at the same time
he argues that there IS no such ma
chine yet invented tor the pressing of
concrete.
I'VE only asked that a pressure of
not less than 400 pounds be applied to
the blocks. so surely that amount of
pressure could be applied by one of the
800 pound machines of which Mr.. With
ington speaks"

In river travelling, In any part OF South
America, 1t is always best to bring
along a hammock and plenty Of mo-
squito netting. The state-rooms are.
| sure to be hot and stuffy, and rnul-
titude of buzzing and singing pests
make life a burden. As every school,
boy knows, the famous Rio de la Plata,
which is the widest river In the world
with the sole exception Of the Amazon,
empties more water into the ocean than
any other, draining a region whose es-
timated area is not less than a million
and a half square miles. With its trib-
utaries, 1t affords more navigation than
the Mississippi and all its branches
more than all the rivers Of Europe COM
bineda trifie more than ten thousand
miles. The tides of the Atlantic reach
up nearly three hundred miles. and a
thousand miles In the interior 1t is deep
enough to carry vessels of twenty -four
feet draught. Above the mouth of the
Uruguay river, which forms the bouf-
Diary line between the republic Of that
name and Argentina the Rio de la Pla-
ia is known as the Parana (Pah-rah-
nah), accenting the last syllable, and
| is SO called to its source, which is hid
den somewhere iii the heart of Brazil,
near to that of the Amazon and the
, Orinoco. 1T is fed through a thousand
channels, ais wen as by tropical rains
and the melting SHOWS Of the Cordillera,
and for fifteen hundred miles it flows
through a part of Brazil which has new
err been explored@-the haunt of uncon-
querable savages. At present steamers
run only to Cuyaba "a trif1e over TWEEN
ty-f1ve hundred miles,. but as far be-
yond as the river has been explored it
is found still deep enough for naviga-
tion.
AT a place called Correntes the Para
quay river enters the Parana, and the
two great streams form the eastern and
western boundaries of the republic Of
Paraguay. At Asuncion, the Paraguay

Spanish cupidity from Peru and Boliv-
la by some primitive system Of internal
commerce known .only to themselves,
To this day metals do not figure iii the
exports Of the adjacent countries, Uru-
quay Paraguay and Argentina, but in
stead such prosaic articles as hides and

frigerated meats, Liebig's extraGt, ETC.;
for their wealth lies solely in grazing
facilities and fertile soil.

ing tits an estuary rather than riv-
er, formed by the Junction of the rivers
Paraguay and Uruguay, almost within
sight Of the sun. 1t continues fresh to
within a few miles of the Atlantic, and
its dark brown current, being heavily
charged with sand and organic matter
in solution, Is so slow in mfngling with
that of the ocean that it can be dis
tinctIy traced a hundred miles out from
its embouchure. Like the Amazon, its
navigation Il is free to the ships OF all
nations; but unlike its mightier neigh
Dor, the La Plata is so full of rocks and
shoals and intricate channels as to
make navigation both difficult and dam
gerous at any time of the year. AT
MonteYideo, the capital Of Uruguay,
where the river suddenly narrows to
about sixty miles, we boarded a side
wheeled steamed Of the Platense Flotil-
la line, which thence dispatches a boat
once every month to Asuncion, Para
guay's capital, 1,140 miles above Mon
tevideo; thence to Curunlba G.936

er vessel for C,uyada, capital OF the very
rich and extensive Brazilian province
of Matto- Crosse, 1888 miles above La
Plata's mouth.
The little steamer draws only eight
feet Of water, but its accommodations
are tolerably comfortable. If one is not
too particular concerning the cuisine.

Were it not for a decided difference
In the coloring Of the water you would
never know when the Atlantic Is left
and the Rio de la Plata entered. The
high-rolling, white-capping pillows are
the same and no land is visible, for the
great river which Juan Diaz de Soils
discovered is one hundred and twenty
five miles wide at its mouth, though
with an average depth of only fifty
feet. Sebastian Cabot, who. arrived in
the year 1920, soon after the natives had
murdered poor Don Soils, dubbed it
River Of Silver" not on account Of its
color, which might have won for it the
more appropriate name of Golden river
of Chocolate, but because he had
wrested quantities Of silver from the
Indians who sWarned its banks, and
he naturally imagined that an album
dance Of precious metal remained in the
vicinity. In point Of fact the terms Ar
gentina and Rio de la Plata, both
meaning the same with reference to sill
yer, are misnomers, for no metals Of
any sort, precious or otherwise, are
found along the banks Of the mighty
stream or anywhere near it, and the
seanty argentiferous deposits in the
hills Of the interior have never been
worked. The Indians aforesaid proba-
