CHINATOWN IS UNMASEED
Secret Subterranean Mysteries Of San
F~rancisco's Plague Spot Revealed.
when Fre Removed buildings. the Real
Extent OF the Underground ctr
was Discovered.


Los Angeles, Cal. Strange Is the
scene where San Fracisco's Chinatown
stood says w. w Overton, who
reached Los Angeles Friday among the
refugees, mo heap OF smoking ruins
harks the site of the wooden warrens
where the slant eyed men of the Orient
dwelt in thousands. The place is pit.
ted with deep holes and scared with
dark passageways from whose depths
come smoke yreaths. All the wood has
gone and the winds are streaking the
ashes.
While men never knew the depth
OF Chinatown's underground city" says
Mr.. Overton. they often talked Of
these s~ubterranean runways and many
of them had gone beneath the street
levels. VIC and three stories. But now
that Chinatown has been unmasked
for the destroyed buildings y~are only
a mask, men from the hillside have
looked on where its inner secrets lay
In places they can see passages 100
feet deep.
THE fire swept this Monaghan sec
ton clean. II left no shred Of tho
painted wooden fabric. Il ate down
20 the bare ground and this lies stark
for the breezes have taken away the
light ashes. Joss houses and mission
schools, grocery stores and opium dens
gambling bells and theaters-aH Of
them went. The buildings blazed up
like tissue paper lanterns when the
guttering candles touched their sides.
From this place, /, following the
fire. saw hundreds OF frightcrazed yell
low men nee. In their arms they bore
thir opium pipes, their money bags
their silks and their children. Beside
them ran the baggy %trousered women
and some of them hobbled painfully.
But these we're the men and women
Of the surface. Far beneath the street
levels In those cellars and p-assageways
were other lives. Women. who never
saw the day from their darkened
prisons. and blinking %jailors were
caught like rats in a huge trap. Their
very bones were eaten by the flames.
And now there remain only the
holes. They pit the hillside like a
multitude OF ground-swailow nests
They show depths which the police
never knew. The secrets Of those bur
rows will never be known. for into
them the hungry FIRE first slfted its
red Goals and then licked eagerly IN
tongues OF creeping flames, finally
celebrating every thing except the
earth Itself"
