Between twenty and thirty corpses
were laid side by side upon the trod-

who came near the Preside and forced
them TO labor at blrying the dead.
So thick were the corpses piled up
that they were becoming a menace and
early in the day an order was issued to
bury them at any cost.

believed, will give the bankers of San

San Francisco, April co. The people
Of San Francisco, homeless and starving,
are facing the awful calamity which
swept the great city practically out of
existence, with spirit of resigned for
tit,ide that must command the admira-
tion Of the world at large
There is little left today Of the gay
city.
There seems little hops now of saving
the choicest residence section of the
city lying west and north Of Vanness
avenue.
The men Of the fire department, who
have throughout the entire confiagration
done splendid worg are still making
strenuous efforts to check the flames,
but without avail
The water is in better supply but of
little use apparently against the head
way now gained by the fire.
Owing to the tremendous heat, the
buildings for some distance from the
4 fire are as dry as tinder and they seem
to disappear like a fash the minute the
flames reach them.

NO INSURANCE ON
COLLAPSED BUILDINGS.

New York, April 90 Officers Of
large fire insurance companies, with.
headquarters here, announced today
that losses by earthquake were not in
.cluded in the FIRE insurance policies
written for California, and that such
losses cannot be allowed. even if the
companies were so inclined, because.
the laws of New York prohibit such
action Rulings On losses Of fire, how
ever, it is expected, will be broad, the
insurance companies agreeing that to
draw lines with any severity would be,
extremely unwise. William G. Robb,
secretary of the New York board of
said that all tie build
#ings which have been dyiiamited will
have to be settled for by the instir-
ance companies, since the statutes Of the
state of California, regardless Of wlletll-

policy provide that insurance companies

SPECIAL SESSION OF
L LEGISLATURE is CALLED

Oakland, Cal, April 2o.--.It is under
stood that Governor Pardee will call
a special session Of the California leg.a
islature. The cali may also emhody
provision for the states assumption Of
the water front along the eastern shore
3of the bay to accommodate commerce.
This evidently is absolutely necessary,
for San Francisco cannot in its pres.
ent condition, nor in fact until ii IS re-
built offer any accommodations to the
commerce from which the state has
been drawing its revenue. This side,
tof the bay is the only section accessi-
bic to overland railroads and ocean
steamships.

The vessels on the stocks are much
more exposed to disaster than ships
afloat in the case of earthquakes or fire,
and the loss of such crafts ais these
would be very seriously felt.
