 Care o he

San Francisco, April 21.-Order and system are gradually being wrought out of the indescribable confusion which has prevailed in this city for the past three days.

Wa ter in sufficient quantities to meet all immediate and pressing needs of the people can be had. Measures are being pushed with vigor everywhere. Sewers are being repaired and the thousands of people camped on open spaces and in the parks are being organized into model camps by the military. Temper ary buildings are being erected in the parks to shelter women and children and all the churches educational in- stitutions, vacant houses and those houses which have been deserted by their occupants tonight house thous- ands of the homeless.
