Of WAY
ONLY DETAIL in
PATH OF ROAD
Proposed 4-MiIe Branch of the
Oahu Railroad Win Cost
About SAC, 600

The only detail TO be settled before
the beginning of the actual construc-
tion of the proposed four-mile branch
sof the Oahu Railway up the Kipapa
gulch, is the matter Of the right OF
way for tn ! tracks. The railroad com,
spany has slNecified as a condition to
its undertaking the new work, which
will involve an expenditure of about
$4,000 that the right Of way be given
it, and 1t is understood that this will
be complied with.
. In light of the complaint which, ac-
zeording to the Star-B Bulletins Washing.
ton correspondent, was recently made
by Alfred w. Eames, manager of the
Hawaiian Islands Packing Company, to
the interstate commerce commission,
against the rates charged by the rail.
road, the terms of the agreement I'm.
der which the company agreed to build
the Kipapa branch, is Of particular In
terest. The pineapple company chiefly
interested in having the branch built,
is the Libby, McNeill & Libby Com
pany, which is building what will be
one of the largest packing plants in
the territory. at Palama, this city. This
concern has guaranteed that 1t will
ship over the line for period of 10
years, between 5000 and 5000 tons OF
fruit, subject only TO crop failures or
other "acts of God" over which it has
no control. During the first five years
of this 10-year period the rate agreed
to for transportation service to Homo
lulu is SO per ton; and for the remain
der of the time of the agreement, $3.50
per ton.
AS explained in these columns on
April 9th, the branch railroad in ques-
ton is surveyed to leave the WahiaWa
branch at the junction OF Kipapa
gulch with the main Waikakaiaua
gulch, and extends up the first named
gulch for about four miles, or some
half mile above the point where the
government road to Wahiawa crosses.
A large area of pineapple lands on the
John Ii estate and other tracts, will
be served by the new road, and large
saving in slow and difficult team haul
will be effected to the pineapple grow.
ers.
AS the bulk of the crop will be har.
vested in July, it will be necessary
that the railroad be completed before
that time, which will require fast work
on the part Of the railroad company, as
it is understood that considerable
amount, of heavy grading must needs
be done ~ F> IS

NOW GOING UP
Sugar from Waste Material.
Win Be Used for SWeetening
of the Canned Fruit

Under contract to complete their
work by July 1, the Lerd Young Engi-
neering Company has a force of men
at work in Iwilei preparing the founda,
tions for two large buildings which
will form part CT the plant by which il
is expected TO effect very great saw
ing to the pineapple interests of the
territory. through utilizing what is at
present the waste product OF the can
neries.
The plant is being erected for the
firm of Gould, Free .& Ash of San
Francisco, commercial chemists, who
are confident that they hold patents
which will In a measure reVolutionize
the pineapple packing industry. Philip
Bush, construction engineer for the
company, arrived here last week. and
is rushing work Oh the buildings with
all speed. A pilc-driver is at work
driving piling for, the foundations and
most of the materials are here for the
buildings. These will consist of two
steel frame structures. one of which
will be 36x16S feet in size and one
story in height, while the second is to
be 30x60 feet, and three stories.
Sugar From Waste. .<-.-:
AS was reported some weeks ago in
tho Star-Bulletin. Charles Ash of the
firm which is undertaking the new pro-
ject, after long series of experiments
both here and in his laboratories on
the Coast, dey .sed method by which
the sugar from, the juice and peel of
the pineapples, which at present prac-
tically all goes to waste, may be saved
in form of syrup. and used in place of
the commercial sugar now purchased
for the sweetening of the canned fruit
This is not only utilizing a waste pro-
duct, but eliminates present source
of cost and troublesin disposing of tons
of material, which at various times
has been serious source OF embar-
rassment to the Gamers. Most of the
canneries now burn the solid portions
OF the waste by use OF considerable
quantities of fuel oil, and pump the
liquids iato sewers.
BefSre leaving here Mr.. Ash made
contracts with a number of the can
ming companies for handling their
waste, and, should the process be as
successful as its promoters conf.
IDENTIFY expect the plant will be in
creased in size accordingly or other
plants built at more convenient places.
The scene of the present activity is
Immediately adjoining the packing
plants of the Hawaii Preserving Com
pany and the Hawaiian Pineapple
Company, and will first utilize the
waste from these factories.
