It was due to great engineerleg difficulties, in- Ruskient knowledge of sanitation, lack of capital and the corrupt use of money to hand. Between 1880 and 1904 they spent $300.000.- 000 and innumerable lives were lost. The pier at Puerto Colombin, said Mr. Moss, extends out to nearly a mile-a remarkable job. This place is about an hour by train from Baranquilla and the river is dredged to make the interise town of Baranquilla an open port.
