The steeple of St Paul's church, one Of
the handsomest in this city. was snapped
off and many buildings under construc-
ton were badly damaged A seven story
brick building almost completed, at the
corner of Bush and Pc k streets, was hope
lessly wrecked. Numerous small craft on
the bay were blown ashore and the dam
age to shipping on San Francisco Bay will
amount to many thousandSof dollars.
