burning fercely. q
People were leaving the city by thousands
and total darkness prevailed, due to smoke.
There was no food or water to be had and
the saloons of the city had been taken
possession of by mobs. who helped them
selves to what they desired. Mr.. Anthony
says that he is convinced that the city
will be absolutely destroyed. The lower
part of Market street resembled one huge
grave, with corpses everywhere. he said,
and the district east of Kearney street
appeared to be in the same condition. The
section north Of Market was in line for de-
struction at the time of his escape.
Those who we're able to afford we're pay
ing fabulous sums for Use Of automobiles
and we're leaving the city. Oakland ferry
was being operated to Oakland. Only
heads of families were permitted to land
in San Francisco.
The reported damage at Salinas is some-
what exaggerated and to-day business has
been resumed. The people of Salinas have
set themselves to clearing up and taking
an inventory Of the situation, and conditions
are again almost normal there.

Urges the People TO Contribute Through

WASHINGTON. April 1e.-President Roose-
welt this evening issued the following APP
peal to the American people;
. Elm the face of 40 terrible and appalling
a national calamity as that which has be-
fallen San Francisco, the outpouring of
the nations aid should, as far as possible,
be entrusted to the American Red Gross,
the national organization best fitted to
undertake such relief work. A specially
appointed Red Cross agent, DR.. Edward
Devine, starts to-day from New York for
California, to cooperate there with the Red
Cross branch in the work Of relief.
"In order that this work may be we'll
systematized, and in order that the con-
trbutions, which I am sure will flow In
with lavish generosity. may be wisely
administered, / appeal to the people Of
the United States, to all cities, chambers
of commerce., boards Of trade, relief COM
mittees and individuals to. express their
sympathy and render their aid by con-
tribution to the American National Red
Cross. They can be sent to the Hon.
Charles Hallam Keep, Red Cross treasurer,
Washington, D. c.; Mr.. Jacob H. SchifT
New York Red Cross treasurer, or other
local Red Gross treasurers, to be forwarded
by telegraph from Washington to the Red
Cross agents and officers in California.

lister Of Panama at Washington. has son
the following message to President Roose-
welt ..
Il present to your Exoellenoy the testi-
mony Of my deep and sorrowful sympathy
for the cruel catastrophe that falls on the
American people. May the cries of the VIC
tins Of San francisco make the great ma
ton, whose respected chief you are, under
stand the criminal error Of those light
hearted engineers who wish to build the
transoosanic route Of Panama with perma-
nent locks and dams, those elements SO asily
destructible by the seismic revolutions
that arc continuous along the Pacific Coast.
May they cause it to be understood
that these looks and barriers can only be
conceived as temporary means and not as
permanent and defnitive organs Of the
great artery Of the m Of the world.
May yesterdays painful holocaust redeem
the fault OF human vanity and demonstrate
that only the broad and deep strait, without
locks and without barriers, once impossible
but now easily carried out by any one who
is not blinded by a willing and wicked ig-
noranoe, is indeed the solution impefatively
demanded by the forces of nature, wisely
and respectfully interpreted,"

another passenger, at Pasadena. Il ran to
the window and saw the big buildings wav-
ing like stalks in the wind"
Mrs. d. c. Richardson, New York city
a refugee. said; We did not reach San
Francisco. Two young women we met
on the way back to Los Angeles told OF a
thrilling escape they made in an automobile
from the Palace Hotel, which was almost
caught several times by falling buildings
as it carried them to high ground"
j. p. Anthony. a business man Of Pacific
Grove. arrived in Salinas, having made the
trip from San Francisco by automobile.
He left there at Q O'Clock last evening.
Mr. Anthony is the first eyewitness who
brings direct information from San Fran
cisco. He says he was sleeping at the
Ramona Hotel on Ellis street; near Mason,
and that he was awakened ut SIS o'oloc
yesterday morning.
The first shock that brought him on of
bed was appalling. The building where
he was housed, six stories high, was raised
and part of the roof caved in. A score or
more of guests, men as well as women,
made their entry into the street, which
soon was filed with people, and a panic
followed. Debris showered into the street
from the buildings on every side. AS a
result several persons were killed. Women
became hysterical and prayed in the streets,
while men sat on the curbing dazed. 1t was
= twenty minutes before those in the vicinity
appeared to realize anything like the enor-
nifty of the catastrophe.
The crowds became larger, and in the
public squares and in empty lots thousands
gathered. 1t was 2 O'Clock before the police
were in control. When they finally as
sumed charge the Officers first lent their
energy toward warning the people on the
streets away from the buildings, which
we're on the brink Of topping over.
Mr.. Anthony was walking on Market
street near the Emporium at about o A. nj.
At once the streets were filed with excited
persons, and thousands soon we're gathered
in the vicinity. all paralyzed with fear.
Before the spectators could realize what
had happened the walls of the big building
swayed about three feet. The people stood
az II paralyzed, expecting every moment
that they would be crushed, but another
tremor seemed to restore tho big building
to its natural position.
Mr.. Anthony expected that with thou
sands of others who were in the neighbor-
hood he would be crushed to death in a
few minutes. He made hts way down
Market street as far as the Coll building,
from which flames we're issuing, every
window being on fire, with the blaze com
ing out through the roof. A similar con-
dition prevailed in the Examiner building,
across the street. He then started for
Third and Townsend streets, determined
to cave the city, and found a procession
of several thousand other people headed In
the same direction.
All south Of Market street was at that
time a mass Of flames. He made his way
to Eighth and Market streets down Eighth
to Townsend and to Third street, and the
entire section which he traverseG was on

OF agony were one of the most heartrending
things Of the holocaust.
1T was too horrible to describe" said
George F. Williams, conductor Of the Owl,
who was in San Francisco when the earth
quake occurred. NO words can convey
the sounds of dying and pinioned persons,
many Of them slowly burning to death,
nor the frightful scenes of a city breaking
to pieces. The mission district is the worst.
It was filed with tenement houses and
lodgings, almost all of which were occupied
by large families living in a few rooms.
The sights I saw there ! will carry with
me to my grave"
As the refugees alighted from the trains
they we're surrounded by anxious people
who we're waiting for news of loved ones
from Los Angeles who were in San Fran
cisco on Wednesday morning.
As the horrible scenes we're recounted by
persons who, experienced them, crowds
pressed around them asking questions of
different sections of the city.
After the first shock. at 5:l3 o'clock, the
streets were filed with persons running
toward the ferries" said Mrs. M. f. Boyle
Of Tonopah, New. The one thqp ght OF all
was to get away as soon as possible. Fear
at what nothing could prevent reigned,
and many persons lost their reason, I
ost everything / had, Of course. but |
escaped.
"The Grand Hotel tossed like a ship at
sea. There was a wave like motion, ac-
| companied by severe up and down tremor,'
said j. R. Hand of the Hand Fruit Company
of Los Angeles, who reached town or the
Owl. The shock wasS accompanied by a
terrific roar that is indesoribable An upright

not get out alive. All my baggage was

Il was on the third story of the hotel, and
got the last vacant room. No one In any
OF the stronger built hotels was Killed TO the
best Of my knowledge.
These hotels were destroyed by hre
after being severely wrecked. The Palace

Briefly stated, every building south of
Market and up to Sixteenth is destroyed.
There was no newspaper service of any
kind in the city, and after $50, when mar
tial law was proclaimed, people were driven
from the streets.
THE Examiner building went up like
