BIG DAYS
AT DAM
RAPID WORK ON THE BIG NUU-
ANU DAM RESERVOIR FOLLOWS
THE RAIN STORM.

l.. M. Whitehouse. the Nuuanu dam
contractor, came into town this morn
ing with very much satisfied smile on
his face. In the morning before he
left for town, he estimated that over
600 cubic yards of sluicing material
had been washed down for the big
dam. Measurements show that 1851
yards have been washed down since
the sluicing began, in 112 working
hours. This means that Whitehouse is
ahead of his contract, which requires
the filing in of $4,000 yards each
month.
The total contract calls for about
10000 yards more of this material,
but, with plenty of water, there will
be no difficulty in handling the work.
Blasts are set OFF on the hillside, the
surface of which mas already been
cleared of all vegetable matter, and
the stone ana earth set free. This is
then attacked with a stream of water
from a 2 5-S nozzle, under forty-five
pounds pressure, which washes every
thing with it down the fumes to the
fill, where it is spread by gang of
men. The water is then drained off
and used again for the same purpose.

Mr. II. P. Wood, Secretary, Hawaii
Promotion Committee, Honolulu,
Hawaii.
Dear Sir: On April 9th, we wrote
asking you your opinion as to the OPP
portunities of doing a -four and grain
business with our port, which is at
the mouth of the Columbia river and
is best adapted to the handling of
these products.
To this you replied on April 22nd,
and referred us to the American-Ha-
waiian Steamship Company. Since
then we have been in communication
with that company and have succeeded
in getting it to make Astoria a port of
call. The Nebraskan of that line
came here yesterday and the results
were all that we're anticipated, as you
will see by the clippings from the
Daily Historian of yesterday and which
are herewith Enclosed.
We have succeeded in working up
considerable business with the Ha-
waiian Islands and it is not unlikely
that you will see one of our represen-
tatives in person before great while.
Meanwhile if you have any inquiries
from your merchants or dealers of in
terest to us, we will be glad to receive
them.
We would appreciate any further
suggestions from you as the one we
already received proved to be very
valuable.
Yours very truly,
JOHN H. WHITE,
Manager.

matter:
