Brazil is lamentably deficient in steamship communication considering its importance in a country where the centers of population are separated by such distances of coasts and river. In the early days, the coastal service was performed by two national companies (now united), and partially by foreign lines calling at two or more ports.
The coastwise service centers at Rio de Janeiro, from which port the Lloyd Brazileiro sent steamers regularly south to Montevideo, and north to Para and Manaos, calling at the more important intermediate ports. From Montevideo river steamers were sent up the Parana and Paraguay rivers to Corumba and Cuyaba, in the state of Matto Grosso.
The company received a heavy subsidy from the national government. Parts of this coastal traffic were covered by other companies, two of which receive subsidies. There were also six lines of river steamers receiving subsidies from the national government in 1904. The largest of the river lines is the Amazon Steam Navigation Co. (an English corporation), whose service covers the main river and several of its principal tributaries.
Here the Campos Salles around 1905 in the harbor of Parà.
