RAPID TRANSIT
HAS CONTRACT
Will Haul Crushed Rock for the
Pearl harbor Work Over
New Tracks.

The Honolulu Rapid Transit and
Land Company has signed a contract
with the United States government,
through Captain Otwell, to transport a
minimum OF twenty-five thousand tons
of crushed rock from the quarry at
Moiliilii to the wharf at the foot of
Kekauanaoa street, and has about fin
ished laying two thousand feet of new
track at Moiliilii and through South
street and from Allen street down ke-
kauanaoa street to the wharf, over
which to handle the new traffic.
The ears for the work are regular
fiat ears, and the contract viii take a
very long time for fulilment, as it is
thought that not more than one hundred
and twenty tons of crushed rock viii
be gotten out by the crusher daily. The
contract for the machinery at the
quarry calls for the completion of the
work in forty days, and it will be
three weeks yet before the crusher is
ready. The crushed rock will be con
veyed from the wharf here to Pearl
Harbor in a new scow building at the
harbor now, and in the barge Melanc-
thon, which has been purchased for the
work The James Makee will do most
of the towing
Captain Otwell stated yesterday that
the price paid to the Rapid Transit
people for hauling was remarkably
cheap figure. They are to receive %
cents ton for the first twenty thou
sand tons moved, and thereafter IS
