It, so Rose has been told.
The bOokmaker doesn Z know. either.
whether he is a millionaire or a man of
ordinary wealth. All sorts of reports
have been brought to him of the value
Of his holdings since twO-thirds Of the
town was destroyed.
Joe, that property Of yours on Fill

DEBRIS IN BURNED
DISTRICT WILL Be

Ocean Shore Is to

Loss & Co. to Put
In Elaborate SyS-
tenn OfBunk6rS.

Even the ashes Of San Francisco are
to be utilized in the work of rebuilding
the city. With debris from the ruins
the Ocean Shore Railway intends to fill
up the Islais Creek flats. Transforming
a marsh into eighty blocks of valuable
land and also make the worthless acres
behind the Fisherman's wharf jetty
available for building purposes.
1t Is roughly estimated that there are
about 100000 cubic yards Of debris to
be removed. To carry this off by the
months, and in order to save time
c. E. Loss & Co., the contractors who
volunteered to clean the streets with
out charge, began work today on an
elaborate system Of bunkers to be used
by the various railway companies that
have belted and traversed the burned
district with spur tracks. These bunkers
are to be placed at advantageous points
on main lines or laterals. Each will
have a capacity of from 1900 to 1000 Gu
bic feet OF debris
The extreme length Of wagon haul
necessary to reach the bunkers will be
four blocks, but the average haul will
be only two blocks. The wagons will
run up short incline and dump their
debris through a low trap into cars or
skips, which, by means CT a mechanical
contrivance, win be raised twenty-six
feet TO the top of the bunkers, thence
gravitating to the point where they
are needed. Once the bunkers are
completed and filled, which will be ear
ly next week, the railway companies
will be able to ill their cars ripadly
and keep them going continuously day
and night until the great task is COM
pleted.
= This system is expected to reduce the
average cost of removing debris 70 per
cent and incidentally enable the clean
ers Of the city to do what would ordi-
narily be a years work in "a few
months time

TERRY
SIGNS TO MEET
JIMMIE BRITT
MCGOVern to Box the
Californian in New
York.
Eddie HdnlOn Offered
a Match in the
North.

Jimmie Britt and Terry MeGovern
are to meet in the ring within the
next month. The scene of their en-
counter will be historic Madison
Square Garden, New York.
For the first time in years in New
York the fight will go ten rounds. The
Legislature has not placed any fur
ther restrictions ON the game and the
city authorities are expected to raise
no objection to the ten-round bout.
They have been permitting three
round affairs and seem in mood to let
this more pretentious one go on un-
noticed.
Britt does not know what club will
promote the affair, but as the officials
sent him two railway tickets and $500
in coin he is not worrying on that
score.
He will leave here on Monday with
his brother. The date and other de-
tails of the fight will be arranged upon
the arrival of Britt in New York.
Eddie Hanlon has been offered a
fight in Vancouver on the oath inst.
with Williams, an Australian.

Ii seems as IL fate left nothing un,

mains and at the same time sent Chief
Sullivan Of the Fire Department,
crushed by debris, TO his deathbed.
Developments lead to the belief that
had Chief Sullivan been alive the city
might not have Jared so badly. not so
much because of his Well-known abil-
ity as a firefighter, for perhaps no
man could have stayed the flames I'M
der ordinary circumstances, but be
cause he had prepared plans for the
battle against the flames in case of
just such horror as came to pass
To several people during his life
time Chief Sullivan impaired the in
formation that he believed San Fran
cisco would some day get quake that
would disrupt the water mains and
that in that he had mapped out the
fight he would make in case such a
temblor ever came Among those to
whom he spoke about this was Clar-
ence Waterhouse. the horseman.
only last summer up at Shasta the
chief was talking about the possibility
of an earthquake that would break
the water mains in San Francisco and
at the same time break the mains and
shut off the water supply" said Wa
terhouse yesterday. He said he be-
lieved there would be such a quake
some day and that the only salvation
of the city would be dynamite. He
said he had figured out just what
buildings and blocks he would dyna-
mite, according TO which direction the
fire was sweeping. He had a diagram
prepared, where 1t was no one knew,
for the chief was never in a condi-
tion to tell after being Injured.

the chief was part of the terrible plan

Hard to Compile List.

Considerable. difficulty is being ex-
perienced by P. R. Hennessy of the
Board Of Health in compiling a list of
victims of the recent earthquake and
fire. He states that bodies, were buried
in various cemeteries of which no rec
ord had been made and that the re-
moval of bodies from one resting place
to another has been the occasion of
much confusion Many communications
have been received by mail giving in
formation of deaths, but in many in
stances the details have been meagre
and insufficient to complete records.
Hennessy says that it will be at least
six weeks before he can complete a list
that win be definite.

CONDITION OF THE JAILS
ON OCEAN AVENUE
All City and County Prisoners Are
Now Confined in Branch jail

County Jail No. 2, formerly the
House of Correction on Ocean avenue,
stood the shock remarkably well, the
only damage to the main building be-
ing to plastering in all the rooms. The
south extension, or wing, was very
much shaken and has been declared
unsafe. During the shake the prison
ers behaved with remarkable GOODNESS
and gave the officials but little trou-
BILE. They were, however, taken to
the grounds and carefully guarded and
for the first day were housed in
shacks. Since then they have been
placed in safe quarters and all now
is moving along as before the quake.
All the prisoners of the city and
county are now in this prison, those
awaiting trial, those serving terms
for petty crimes and the drunks and
in separate quarters. The water sup
ply was not affected and the electric
plant has been repaired and was ready
for all purposes yesterday afternoon.
Branch Jail No. 3, formerly the In
dustrial School, used In recent years
as the jail for women, is a complete
wreck above the line of the basement.
The walls are all cracked and the
front wall detached from the side
walls. There were sixty-three women
prisoners in the Jail, and all but one
seemed resigned to conditions, and
that one was Cordelia Botkin, who
appeared to be the most terrified in
dividual in the institution She fell
on her knees, imploring God to save
her life. and when Mrs. Roy, the ma
tron, appeared to let some of the pris-
oners out of the north dormitory she
caught hold of her and clung to her
with such tenacity that Mrs. Roy was
compelled to call the guards to re-
move her. One Of the employees be-
came hysterical and had to be carried
out.
For the first few days the prisoners
were kept in tents. Since then shacks
have been built and the women are
kept In these under guard. The pris-
oners have had sufficient provisions
and are not suffering.

GOLDEN GATE PARK BAND
WILL PLAY NEXT SUNDAY.
Director Paul Steindorff Calls Upon
Volunteer Musicians to Render
Fine Program of Selections.

The famous Golden Gate Park bands
under the direction of Paul Steinderff
will play a. selected program from 2 to
4 O'Clock next Sunday afternoon near
the music stand in Concert Valley. The
music stand which was built by Claus
Spreckels at a cost of 100000 and pre-

will play in the vicinity of the stand
so that the benches, promenade and
drives may be utilized as usual.
The United Railroads which has so
generously contributed TO the mainte-
nance of these popular concerts, is max
ing every effort to have in operation a
sufficient number of lines by Sunday
to accommodate the crowd that will no
doubt be glad to get cut to the Park
and listen to the alluring strains of the
band whose fame is as world wide as
the park.
Although recent events have shaken
things up little, Paul Steindorf, the
director and Dexter M. Wright, the Sec
retary, are still in the ring and have
been struggling to get the band to-
gether again. After conference with
Herbert Schmitz, secretary of the Park
Commissioners and Mr.. Handlon of the
United Railroads, it has been decided
to volunteer the services of the band
for the coming Sunday. The members
of the band and also members of the
Musicians Union who desire to volun-
teer are invited to report at the band
stand at the Park at AS on Sunday
afternoon with music stands. Follow

General Slocum is Washed Upon the
Rocks Before the Captain Can Get

The army tug General Slocum, went
ashore near the Presidio wharf Thurs
day afternoon and it might have sus-
tanned serious injury but for the fact
that the tide had just turned and was
running in at a rapid rate, This en-
abled the tug to back off under her own
steam several hours later. The tug then
moved to the wharf where it will stay
until examined by the board of exam
iners and sent to the IRON Works for

The tug was just leaving the wharf
when it was caught by the tide and
before Captain Smith could get it un-
der control it was swept broadside upon
