FOR AN IDEAL SAN FRANCISCO.
Architect ID. III. 'Burnham. Who Drew the
Plans. Back From Europe.

Eiaiis' bhch FROM furOpe.
Daniel II. Burnham, the Chicago archi-
tect who in 1904 outlined plans for an ideal
reconstruction of San Francisco that met
with the approval OF former Mayor Phelan
and the Merchants Association, of which
he was the head, arrived here yesterday
from Europe on board the Hamburg
American Line steamship Deutschland. The
ship had sailed from Hamburg before the
news of the earthquake had reached the
other side, and no one on the ship knew
of San Francisco's calamity until the
morning Of the 10th, when the ship reached
Dover. e, 49,
Mr.. Burnham, therefore, had failed to
get the cablegram said to have been sent
to him by Mayor Schmitz, asking him to
come to San Francisco at once for con-
sultation as to the carrying out Of those
plans.
Mr.. Burnham has been abroad studying
Continental architecture for some months
and went at once 70 Chica go. He said that
in ALI proba bilitv he would get some mes
sage from San Francisco when he got to
Chicago but he could not go further West
at once. as he wanted to see his family in
Evanston.
'hlV "dlliik lp uS tdIn 4ul "
ham said that he had no doubt that the
ruined San Francisco could be rebuilt into
an ideal city. 3. ...
There is only one question to be solved
that is the willingness Of the citizens to
put their shoulders to the wheel. If they
do. In a very snort time they can have
the finest, the most beautiful city in
all the world. There is, to my mind, no
limit to the possibflitieG."
Mr.. Burnham's plans were laid out after
he and his assistants had spent more than
a year in studying the city. They estab-
lished themselves in a house on the Twin
Peaks, 700 feet above tidewater, at the head
of Market street. The plan was then to
as laid out. The features we're a civic
centre and an unbroken line from Market
street to the Park and the Preside.
"0f course" said Mr.. Burnham, lit will
be much easier nov, TO carry out those
plans. The reason they were abandoned
was that the condemning of property
and razing of buildings would ave cost
the city toe much. Now in that respect
there will be comparatively plain sailing
all the city will have 10 do will be to run
streets as the needs demand-there will be
no buildings to be paid for"
The proposed civic centre was to have
been l~ocated-now probably will be-about
the geographical centre Of the city, where
Market street and Van Ness avenue inter-
sect.
In the immediate vicinity would be
located the post office. city hall. public
library, opera house. concert hall, acad-
envy Of art, municipal theatre, museum
of art and the museum of natural history
and academy of music.
The streets then were to be laid out
somewhat after the plan Of Washington,
with the civic centre as the hub. The
plans extended to the enlarging of Golden
Gate Park, the clearing Of certain parts
of the poorer districts for smaller parks
and a large park on Telegraph Hill,

for the relief Of the San Francisco sufferers.
%Sieropticon views of the old city and som
taken since the disaster were shown. A
committee was appointed to raise sub
scriptions on behalf of the league Borough
President Bird S. Coler was one of the
epeakers, and this is part Of his address
his catastrophe has taught the world.
ss norhing else could teach it, that here on
ms great continent is a nation of brothers,
Yn,lrd by the closest and tenderest ties;
nat here is a people that faces, with I'M
shaken confidence In its-own strength and
irs own d stiny, the most terrifying forces
ci nature, that the new Americans can
stand upon the unsteady earth with the same
courage and the same resolution that the old
Americans showed on the heavlng decks
.. those gallant warships that guarded the
lopGbllc IN its infancy.
T. Is this spirit of Low for our brothers
which makes us as a nation the hope Of suffer-
ing humanity everywhere, and which assures
rs that whatever may be the evils of indus
Trial and economic conditions, the great,
rlsln. strong handed. clean minded. gentle
hearted people of America will solve their
problems one by one as they tread the stony
