Now a Desolate Waste
STARVATION NOW THREATENED
Metropolis , of the Pacific Coast is
Reduced to a Vast Waste of Smok

Ever Eefore Seen on This Conti
nent.
San Francisco, Special.-San
Francisco's darkest hour has dawned
into a day of hope. Its time of over
whelming disaster and peril has end
ed and its future is now a subject of
general consideration.
The fire is practically uuder con
trol. A clear sky over the Mission
district Shows that the fire there has
been extinguished. The spread ol' the
flames toward the western addition,
the best part of the city remaining,
has been stayed, and the only por
tion of the conflagration that de
mands the attention of. the firemen
is that extending from the Nob Hill
section down to thc northwestern
part of the water front. Tho western
addition (hinger was averted at 2.30
o'clock Saturday morning by the use
of giiii cotton; dynamite! and two
streams of water". The explosives
were handled by the chief gunner of
the Mare Island navy yard and his
accomplishments proved him to be a
master of his profession.
Menace of Famine.
Possibility of famine is already pre
senting its hideous face. At best the
city never camed more than three
days' supply of provisions and food,
and fi?w; With the wholesale districts
and wdrehouses -triped out there is
already a shortage of food; Prices
were in most instances more than
trebled. An Asociated Press man
was obliged to pay 25 cents for a
small glass of mineral water in thc
Hayes Talley district. The half of
the city that has been laid waste and
hot a drop of water is to be had there
except bottled mineral water.
President Sends Message.
Washington-! Special. - President
f?oosevelfc manifested profound inter
est hi the news of the earthquake
at Sari Fra b cisco.
He sent the following dispatch to
?.tayor Sshmitz:
"I share with all our people the
horror felt at the castastrophe that
h?? b'efell?ri San Francisco and the
most earnest syiripfltfay with your cit
izens. If there is anything that the
Federal government can-do lo aid
you it will be done." .
He algoi sent. thc. following to Gov
ernor Pardee :
"It waa difficult at first to credil
Ihe news of the calamity that has be
iellen San Francisco. I fell thc great
er the concern and sympathy for you
arid the people not only of San Fran
cisco but of California in this ter
rible disaster. You will let me know
if there is anything that the nation
al government eau dW
President Roosevelt at night re
ceived a telegram from Governor Par
dee, of California, reading as follows:
"Owing to the intervention of tele
graphic communication, the extent of
the disaster in San Francisco is not
well known here but no doubt the ca
lamity is very serious. People of Cal
ifornia appreciate your prompt in
quiry and offer of assistance. State
troops doing patrol duty and if Fed
eral assistance is needed will call on
you.**
Responses Universal.
With great unanimity all the cit
ies of the country, large and small,
are coming to the rescue of thc strick
en section.
Mint Almost Unscathed.
Tlie United Slates mint escaped al
most unscathed on account of its
isolated environment and its peculiar
fireproof construction, but the force
of sending power of the earthquake
could be seen in the cracked walls
of the new postoffice on Seventh and
Mission streets, and ground had sunk
for several feet.
Marks Complete Ruin.
All efforts to check the spi-ead of
the Hames at Yan Ness avenue by
blowing up. a mile of buildings on the
east side of Yan Ness avenue proved
fruitless. The fire has spread across
the broad thoroughfare and from
present indications the entire west
ern addition, which contains the
homes of San Francisco's wealthiest
class, is now doomed. The destruc
tion-of the western addition of the
city completes the work of the ravag
ing flames and marks the devastation
of the eu tire city.
A Veritable Hell.
i3aa Francisco, Special.-Fleeing
inhabitants can see from miles around
the pillars of fire towering skyward.
The crash of falling ruins and the
muffled reports of exploding dyna
mite reach the ear at recular inter
vals. A disaster that staggers com
prehension, and in point of terror ;
and damaee, is unprecedented on the
coast, has not yet reached its culmi
f.atiou.
Day of Uneven Struggle.
Thursday has been another day of
uneveu struggle of man against an
unconquerable element. Acre after
acre has been ground into dust and
ashes, despite the heroic perseverance
of thc firemen to limit the conflagra
