and west coasts Of South America and in the
transport of lighter manufactured goods from
Europe and America the rail route will prove
formidable rival
Though Brazil and the Argentine Republic are
washed by the Atlantic, vast tracts of rubber
growing districts of the one and of the agricul-
tural and cattle sections of the other lie far
nearer to the Pacific. With facilities of trans
port 1t is reasonable to suppose that products
which have hitherto found their sole ports of
shipment on the Atlantic seaboard will ultimately
turn to the Pacific. and vice versa.
AS a medium of ocean traffic the Importance Of
the route can not be overestimated. At present
South America is to great extent a commercial
appanage of Europe. On the east coast the trade
of the United States with the countries of the At
lantic has been handicapped by inadequate ship
ping and also by the fact that the east coast
to the south of the turn of the continent is really
much nearer to Europe than to the United States
with the added advantage of more favorable sail
ing conditions, and the west coast is as remote
by sea from New York as 1t Is from Liverpool or
Hamburg. When the Panama canal is completed
a different condition will prevail. Then the United
States especially In its manufacturing sections,
will enjoy a tremendous advantage In respect to
all that portion of South America situated or
commercially tributary to the Pacific Already the
opening of the Tehuantepec line across Mexico and
OF the interoceanc route in Guatemala has aug
mented the volume of trade between the Atlantic
and Pacific.
With the Buenos Aires-Valparaiso route open to
easy transport Chile and Peru will not longer be
cut of from the great streams of the worlds COM
merce. They will be in direct and constant in.
tercourse with the countries to the east and will
be brought proportionately closer to Europe and a
long step will be taken toward South American
solidarity by bringing the capitals of the west
coast under the influences those of the
east.

The four craters which contain the lakes are

long cherished by engineers of piercing the An
des, which accomplished on the morning of
November q. 1909 when the workmen Of the
Transandine railway approaching from opposite
sides of the tunnel, faced the last thin line of
rock which, in the heart of the Andes separated
Chile from the Argentine Republic.

British engineer in the employ OF an Anglo-Amer-

workmen followed by 80 of his operatives (most-
Iy Chileans), who returned to their native land
with banners flying and cries of victory.
From the capitals Of Chile and the Argentine
Republic functonaries and private individuals
journeyed to be present at this last act in
dertaking which has engaged the talents OF a
succession of engineers and hnanciers since 1860
and which, upon completion, will take rank with
the great Alpine tunnels.
Fifty years ago the North American captain OF
industry, William Wheelwright. prepared ten
tative plan for crossing the continent from Rosario
in the Argentine Republic TO the Chilean port of
Caldera, over the Pass of San Francisco. Thir-
teen years later the Chilean brothers, Juan and
Mateo Clark to whom the credit for the project
of the line as completed must be awarded, took
the first practical steps in the matter through
concession obtained from the Argentine govern
ment for a railroad from Buenos Aires to the
Chilean frontier.
In 1880 the first section from Villa Mercedes to
Mendoza was built by the Argentine government,
connecting with the Clark line from Buenos Aires

concession to British company secured the con-
struction of the road from Mendoza to the Chilean
