SALVATION OF MINT
APPEARS MIRACULOUS
Treasurer Treat Tells How Frisco
Building Was Snatched From
Heart Of Confagration.

With every report received at the
Treasury Department from Treasury
officials at San Francisco. the more
miraculous appears the salvation Of the
United States Mint building Said
Treasurer Treat today. in discussing the
matter:
1T seems providcntial that the mint at
San Francisco. containing over $500, ,0o0,-
coo, should not only have been saved. but
remains undisabled by the terrible
earthquake and fire which ruined almost
every building within blocks and blocks
OF its location"
Mr. Treat saws that the salvation of
the building from destruction by the ire
is attributed 10 the two big artesian
wells which supply the private rcser,
Voirs of the mint with water. The fun
force Of employees of the mint were on
hand on that dreadful Monday morning.
He at once began to dispose of them to
the best advantage to fight the fire
For several hours said Mr.. Treat
these men fought the flames, and final
