MESSAGES OF
INQUIRY ARE
FALLING OFF

Since earthquake at San Francisco,
about 200 telegiams have been sent from
this city by persons anxious for knowl-
edge OF relatives or friends.
Some OF those seeking for information
exhibited pitiable anxiety in the probable
fate az relatives.
Al first the telegrams could not be tele-
graphed To the stricken city. owing to the
prCstIation OF the wires and the uncer-
:alrty OF the delivery Of the messages
added TO the woe Of the inquirers
The number OF inquiries has fallen or
materially today as well as the number
OF messages TO friends in this city, and
most OF the messages now received here
come from the towns outside OF San Fran
cisco. 10 which the refugees escaped.
Wire service TO San Francisco has been
re-esta blished. but the prompt delivery OF
messages cannot be guaranteed because
of the scattering OF the people there. The
telegraph companies. however, placard
messages. which are held until called for.
The recent emergency service over the
lines of the Providence Telephone COM
pany cannot be estimated closely until the
records have passed through the hands OF
the auditors.
The offer OF the company I'm the matter
was misconstrued TO mean that any per-
or friends in the stricken city would be
allowed 10 do so free OF charge. IL would
have been impossible to have carried out
such an arrangement.

SAN FRANCISCO, Ar

SAIN FKAINNlSNO, April Z4.-Ar-
rangements for the reconstruction of the new
and greater San Francisco are rapidly crystal-
izing and soon the sounds of building will be
heard in every block Of the devastated district.
The bowing-up Of the ruins in the busi=
ness section has already begun and is now
well Under way.
There will not be dangerous ruin stand
ing on Market street by this afternoon.
A large squad Of artilerymen assisted by
the municipal authorities have been dynamit-
ing all the tottering buildings and walls. This
work has so far been confined to Market
street in order to open a safe artery from the
outlying district to the waterfront.
The district north Of Market street and
the business section will receive the same
treatment after Market street is clear.
AS showing the disposition prevailing
among property owners Of the city the action
of the Humboldt bank, which will at once
erect new building u stories in height, may
be cited.
Two months ago plans were approved
and contracts let for the building and the
steel for construction is already on the way
west from eastern agents Of the contractors.
Yesterday orders were given to 60 ahead with
the work Of building.
