FIRE DEPARTMENT
 LOST LIGHTLY
In the Fight With the Flames Which
 Destroyed San Francisco.

San Francisco, April 25.-The losses of the fire department are inconsider- able compared with the great damage sustained in other departments of the municipality. As far as known, there have been but three deaths and one injured. The apparatus of the depart ment, while damaged, is still intact. Nineteen companies, however, have been put out of commission and many of them will be disbanded. At a meet ing of the fire commissioners this morning, it was reported by Chief Dougherty that, including the dead and injured. there are about one hundred members of the department missing. It is believed, however, that these men have been separated from their com panies and will rejoin them as quick ly as they can.
 Besides Chief Sullivan, the only iden- tified dead fireman is James O'Neil, the hoseman on duty with engine No. 4, whose body was found beneath the ruins of the engine house at the cor ner of Howard and Third streets. The doors of the engine house were jam med by the shock so that they could not be opened. O'Neil climbed to the transom and was in the act of Ieap- ing to the ground when the cornice struck him at the back of the head and killed him instantly. He leaves l widow. who for a week has been searching the city for the absent hus- band. She does not know that he is dead. The fire department is making an effort to find her.
 At the present time, the commission CTS are devoting their attention to equipping the department for the pro- tection of the unburned section or thc city.

San Francisco. April 25.-Tnere was d resumption of business to an aston ishing extent today, considering the conditions throughout the residence section. Stores were instructed to re- open and the municipal government has established a scale of prices for the most important commodities, food, clothing. etc. which is even below that under normal conditions.
 Street cars are promised for tomor- row morning and electric lights will be turned on tomorrow evening. The mayor today took a firm stand against the many self-cOnstituted citizens protective committees" organized in many sections of the city by bodies of men who undertook to regulate the affairs of their neighborhoOds. So many complaints nave been made against these committees that some action was considered necessary to protect citizens, press representatives and even those who were acting in some capacity to preserve the peace and good order of the city. The may or today gave instructions that the members of these "cornmittees'' were to be disarHed wherever found by the city police and if any resistance was
  which means that they are to be shot without ceremony.
 The water problem is still a serious one. 1t was decided today that still further restrictions should be put on the use of the water now available.
 The state militia has not been with drawn, notwithstanding the requests from the mayor and from the citizens executive committee of fifty.
 Since the militia have been confined to a limited district, however. and the condition explained to them, there has been less complaint from citizens
 There is nothing but praise for the work of the army, navy and the mu- nicipal police. They nave acted with reason at all times. Marines are being used for patrol duty and have main tained the best of order without one instance of conflict with anybody. The direction of the municipal police under Mayor Schmitz and Chief Dinan has been excellent and many are the he roic actions that could be told of the work of these men during the past week. Mayor Schmitz has worked day and night to alleviate the condition of the people and has directed affairs with remarkable success. At no time has he lost control of the situation and ne has kept in touch with every de- partment, military and civil, and maintained harmony where friction might have occurred under less com petent direction.
 The lack of anything like an epidemic of disease since the disaster that over took San Francisco has surprised even the medical men. Everywhere the san itary conditions are most satisfactory.
 The local finance committee and Red Cross are acting together and the work of relief is being conducted in a sys- tematic manner. A force of expert ac- countants has been engaged, an audit ing and supervising committee ap- pointed and every dollar contributed will be accounted for.
 The San Francisco labor council. on behalf of the 186 affiliated unions. has announced that wages will remain the same as before the fire.
