In early 1900 , Cali was a pastoral village, crafts, 30,740 inhabitants, told by the Prefect, who had no metal aqueduct and should take the public water batteries, like those of Crespo, The Rock, Santa Rosa and King, in the center, and were lit with candles, stearic and tallow candles lit on winter evenings with lucifer matches. In 1903 the winter was so intense that the Cauca River has flooded large areas of land and destroyed considerable plantations, and its rushing stream several people have drowned, as reported by the press then alarmed at newspapers as rail, Day, Correo del Cauca and La Opinion.
On 3 January 1906 when five thousand people attended the first sail of the trip of steam Sucre from the Bridge of Commerce, in an attempt to restore navigation on the Cauca region, has told the historian Germain Patiño Ossa, and in 1910 tram was inaugurated between quality and Puerto Mallarino.
