were either swept away altogether or
wrenched to such an angle as to practi-
cally destroy them.
At one time the water was at least two
feet deep at the crossing rendering pedes-
trianism decidedly uncomfortable If not
actually dangerous. AT this period Lou J.
O'Brien did lucrative business in the
pilot line. Downing a pair of rubber
boots, he carried belated travellers from
one side of the street to the other for a
song" as he said.
All the streets in Golden Gate Valley are
more or less wrecked as the result of the
storm. Great gullies are to be seen every
where. The street leading to the Bishop
Scott School on Lombard street is in a
most deplorable condition. Until it is re-
paired it will be practically impossible for
children to reach the building. They GER
talny can't get there at all, with any de-

and there were many small breaks, es-
pecially in the Mission. AS is usual the
Mission sewers were unable to carry off
the flood of waters. As result they were
worse than useless, for every manhole in
the neighporhood of Fifteenth street was
turned into spouting geyser, throwing
water several feet into the air.
The last storms have brought to light a
sewer steal of an old-time contractor in
the Noe Valley. A wooden sewer was re-
placed there by brick one some eighteen
years ago, one Miles doing the work. A
break on Saturday revealed the fact that
Mr.. Miles built his brick sewer inside the
old wooden one, and where the heavy
wooden ioists were encountered at inter
walls of four feet he had put only one course
of brick instead of two. The wood has
r?tted, and now the sewer has begun to
yield when strained by heavy rains.

TO LIMIT HER LIABILITY.
Petition of the Owners of the Pioneer in
the Federal Court

A. NJ. Simpson, G. P. Simpson. Samuel
Perkins, c. B. Hughes and R. ]. Lawson,
the owners of the schooner Pioneer, filed a
petition IN the United States District
Court yesterday to have Robert Lynes en-
Joined from proceeding further with the
$4,000 damage suit which he brought
against them last November. Included in
the petition is also prayer for an order
limiting the vessels liability to its actual
value and also for an appraisement By
Commissioner Hoffman.
Lynes was badly injured a year ago
while the vessel was being loaded at
Fourth and Channel streets. A barrel OF
lime fell on him and knocked him down
into the ships hold, depth of eight feet.
For this he commenced his damage suit.
The attorneys for Lynes have concluded
to take advantage of recent decision of
Judge Morrow and have the Federal tri-
bunal declare it an admiralty case and
within the jurisdiction only OF the Fed

the passengers were congratulaung them
selves that no bones were broken, the grip
would take another hold, and away would
shoot the car as if nothing had happened.
OF course the passengers managed to I'M
tangle themselves without harm to any
one, though once or twice panic was mar
rowly averted.
Early in the morning as car was going
down the steep grade from Larkln to Polk
street it came 10 a sudden halt. AS soon as
the people could collect themselves wild
scram bic was made for terra tirma. But
Just as the first. who were last IN the mass
of humanity suddenly thrown pell nell
toward the dummy, reached the rear exit,
the grlpman let go the cable and the car
made rapid though safe landing at the
Polk-street crossing.
The main trouble on the Union-street
line was at the corner of Baker and Green
wich streets. No cars were run further
than this point after 2 oclock.
The City, with an eye to economy, has
constructed along Baker street an 18-inch
sewer. This is made a receptacle for all
the waters which flow from the Presidio
and Pacific Heights. The storm of yes
terday, however, showed that it was not
equal to the task. A tive-foot sewer would
not have been too large.
At the corner of Baker and Greenwich
streets the sewer became choked with sand
and other debris, and suddenly from out
the manhole where the two streets inter-
sect shot a stream of water eight or ten
feet high. 1t was beautiful sight, but it
brought destruction to surrounding prop
erty. By o'clock Baker street from
Greenwich down looked like river. The
four corner stores, occupied by Otto
Kaiser, w. F. Hewer, James Taylor and
John Shield, were completely inundated.
Mr.. Taylor's property probably suffered
the most. 1t took the raging waters, APP
parently angry because of long confne-
ment, but few moments to cut path
through the sidewalk. First long wooden
bridge leading Sinto the rear yard sue
cumbed, and then as the torrent would eat
away the earth fences fell and outhouses

The storm will cost the City thousands
of dollars, to say nothing of the incon-
venlence to patrons of electric and cable
cars. incidentally, when spring and sum-
mer come along, sickness may run riot for

particularly true of that section of the
City lying north of Greenwich street, be-

feet ocean of water is gathered, with no pos
sible hope OF an outlet, except by absorp-
ton.
The streetcars were generally handi-
capped by the storm, the Preside line be-
ing probably one of the greatest sufferers.
AS early as O'Clock there was trouble in
moving the cars, and with little variation
it continued throughout the day. No par
ticular schedule was followed, cars being
run whenever the grip was able to pillow its
way through the mud, sand and water
which found its way into the conduit.
At the most unexpected time the car
would come to q sudden halt, packing the
passengers like sardines in one corner, and
then in the most exasperating way, when

gree of safety, until the dry season comes

That section of the City Immediately
contiguous to Harbor View was a perfect
lake of water. Sewers, cuiverts and
bridges were washed away. 1t will cost
many thousands of dollars to repair the
damage in this district alone.
The Mission road has been transformed
into lake of mud for part of its extent and
in many places has been deeply cut. The
east side is not severed, and, as a conse-
guence, all the water that fell on the
hills during Sundays deiuge poured down
on to the Mission road, making it look like
a turbld mountain stream for awhile.
Sewers and cesspools were severely tried,
