Mr.. Kahn sent one frantic message after an

Washington in a vain endeavor to learn the fate
of his family. No answer came to his kilograms.
and as he saw by newspaper accounts that the
flames were hourly sweeping nearer and nearer
to the spot where his hopes We're centred, he
soon reached a state closely bordering on in
sanity,
All day yesterday and to-day Mr.. Kahn
haunted the telegraph and newspaper offices,
begging for the latest word from San Fran

line bearing upon the catastrophe in the wild
hope that he would find something which would
allay his fears. But nothing of interest came to

this morning received a telegram from Super

the government employees out there. with the
exception of Superintendent Leach of the Mint
and Postmaster Fiske Mr.. Leach reports that
the Mint was saved after hard fight with fire.
and Mr.. FiSke wired Postmaster General Cor
teyou that the new postoffCe had been badly
damaged. Although that pOstoffice cost the
government only S2.500O0o it would probably
require nearer $4.O00.OOO 10 replace it on ac-
count of the higher prices of lumber and other
building material and because the contractor
who built it nearly broke himself by taking the
job too cheaply in the first place
We have wired to Superintendent Roberts of
the Custom House for facts. but have not
received line from him. l very much doubt
that the steel construction of the postof-
flee has suffered to any great extent but am
apprehensve that the walls badly damaged
and may have 10 be replaced Ever if nothing
but the walls have to be rebuilt, l do not be-
leve that il can be done at a cost of less than a
million, and that on much palmer scale than
the present structure
We have not yet heard whether the buildings
at Oakland, Sacramento and San Jose have been
damaged. but the newspaper reports say that
the last place has been completely wiped out,
