phone message from the wholesale
grocery firm of w. S. Henderson & CO.
to the effect that a man giving his
name as Plainman was attempting to
purchase supplies for San Francisco
sufferers in the name of the relief or

ris made inquiry and learned that no
such person had been authorized to
solicit or purchase supplies. The mat

of Salt Lake, all purchases should be
made by the purchasing committee
named. Regular solicitors of funds are
to be furnished with proper credentials.

Loss of Life Less Than Reported.

The destruction of life was not as great
as the reports Indicated, the exact num-

all human probability, be known, for

paid to the injured. The result was that
not less than 200 bodies, few of which

APPEAL HEARD
AND Answered
Nearly Ten Million Dollars
Raised for Victims of the
Earthquake and Fire.
MONEY STILL POURING
PROVISIONS SENT BY The
TRAINLOAD.

New York, April 21.-The appeal of
San Francisco has been heard through
out the civilized world. From every
city and town in this country. from
European capitals and some far east
communities comes news that all hu-
manity in expressing it's sympathy is
also offering enormous material assist
ance.
1t is estimated tonight that the San
Francisco fund is rapidly nearing the
total of S10,000,000 and viii have passed
that figure by Monday when the Unit
ed States congress, it is announced.
will add $500, 600 to the 81 600, 900 al
ready appropriated.
In the list of generous contributors
New York city ranks next to the gov
eminent itself and bids fair to far ex-
coed the federal contribution. Tonight
the New York fund amounted to APP
proximately 100000 with contribu-
tions coming in fast.
Old Bay State 100000.
The state of Massachusetts has un-
dertaken to raise $4,000, 900 and with
BOstOn's generous help is we'll on the
way to the goal Chicago's fund is
approaching $1,000,000 and promises to
go beyond that sum. Philadelphia will
send 100000. A score or more OF cities
are contributing 100000 and more.
Pittsburg has given 100000; Cleve-
land, 100000; st. Louis, 5000, 600; Sac
ramento, 100000 and Seattle SAC, 900.
Nor is the work of raising relief
funds confined to the large cities. From
every section, every state comes the
news Of contributions made by small
towns. Not large in themselves. their
aggregate will be enormous. UncOunt-
ed thousands are sending their contri-
buttons. and the grand total of the re-
lief fund will probably never be known.
Across the seas, in London, Paris, Ber-
lin, wherever Americans cOngregate, a
generous inflow of gold is reported.

Mr. Brown, was the futile struggle Of
a policeman and others to rescue man
who was pinned down IN burning wreck

losing race. The helpless man watched il
in silence till the fire began burning his
feet Then he screamed and begged to

ERNEST BICKNELL
WILL RETURN.

Ernest p Bicknell. who few weeks
ago gave up his position as secretary
of the Relief Corporation to resume his.
work at Chicago. where he has charge
of the Associated Charities. is TO return
to San Francisco. He will be given
entire charge of the work OF rehabi1ita-
tion. The Relief Corporation has al
ready written Mr.. Bicknell asking him
to return. Mr.. BicknelFs reply was
received yesterday He states that he
will resume the work here II satisfac-
tory arrangements can. be made with
the Associated Charities at Chicago.
Negotiations to that end have been
taken up with the Chicago authorities,
and from replies received there is no
doubt that Bicknell will be sent here.
AS is well known. F. W. Dohrmann.
head of the rehabilitation department.
is to go to Europe within a fortnight.
The Relief Corporation has been look
ing about for some one competent to
take up the rehabilitation work where
Mr.. Dohrmann lays it down. There is
a consensus of opinion that none is
better fitted for il than Mr.. BicknelL
He Is in complete accord with Mr..
Dohrmann's plans and methods
BickneH is known TO be thoroughly
in accord with the plan to turn the
relief work over TO the regularly con-
stituted charitable institutions OF San
Francisco His return would probably
hasten the realization of the plan and
bring the work OF the Relief Corpora
tion TO an end sooner than is generally
deemed probable.
