ESCAPING GAS
CAUSED DEATH
Another May Result From the
Poisoning Today.
EUGENE CURRAN UNCONSCIOUS
His Companion Was Nor Whalen- The
Tragedy Occurred Ia Smith 81. lodg-
Ing House Sunday
EUGENE CURRAN UNCONSCIOUS

One man was found dead and another In
a dangerous condition at 1S0 South street
Sunday morning because of gas poisoning.
The dead mans identity was this morn
ing fully established He was Morris
Whalen. The other victim is Eugene
Curran. 30 years old. employed as a
laborer at the Gorham works i'm Elm
wood.
Curran boards with Mrs. Annie Matti-
moe at l3O South street, occupying a room
on the top floor.
Whalen was a mill fireman and boarded
at 50 Borden street.
Curran brought home Whalen early
Saturday evening, intending TO go TO work
in the morning.
Curran and his friend remained in the
house from $50 until 1880 o'clock. when
they went out for a few minutes.
About midnight they returned and were
heard talking and laughing at late as l:3O
o'clock in the morning.
AT 10:30 o'clock Thomas Salmon. fellow
LOGGER, went To Curran'S room To call him.
Not getting any response 10 his knocks
upon the door Salmon entered the room,
finding it full Of gas
on the bed fully dressed was Mr..
Whalen. Curran was also dressed but
was on the floor. apparently having at
tempted TO get to the door.
A physician was called, who found that
Whalen was dead. while Curran was
in very serious condition.
An ambulance was called, Curran was
taken TO the Rhode Island hospital, and
efforts were made 10 revive him, that
he might tell who his friend had been.
Curran remained unconscious ali day
and through the night. and this morning
was reported TO be considerably worse.
The gas had escaped from a break in
the side bracket.
Because of that defect the cock had
been frightened TO preclude the possibility
OF just such an accident as this one.
Curran had managed TO turn the cock
half on and had lighted the gas
The little flame burned all night and
up 10 the time Mr.. Salmon opened the
door still II did not ignite the gas which
flowed fros She break in the pipe.

The water situation, while causing
inconvenience to the public, is no
longer such a problem. About two
thirds of the remaining section of the
city is being supplied with sufficient
water for the pressing domestic needs,
but, of course, there is not yet enough
to be had for fire fighting purposes.
Because of this fact the most string
emit orders have been issued by the
military and civil police that no fires
shall be built within any house, and
20 lights, not even candle light, can
be shown at night IN the houses. All
cooking for the present must be done
en- the sidewalks or in the open streets
and in the daylight
One of the noteworthy features of
the situation is the remarkable
promptness with which the work of
Systematically caring for the homeless
has been thoroughly organized and put
into operation. The fear that existed
two days ago that the immense task
CT caring for the destitute and help
less people could not be organized
quick enough to save hundreds from
hunger and possible epidemic exists
no longer.
The administration of the city's af-
fairs Is progressing most harmonious
ly. Mayor Schmitz and General Fun
ston are working in perfect accord.
There was some slight confusion yes.
terday owing to the misunderstanding
OF orders by some members of the
national guard, but this has been
minimized. The system put into force
by the mayor and General Funston to-
day is working out Of confusion, and
the city Is as orderly as before the
fire.
Many citizens have reported many
extremely arbitrary acts of the militia
men, but no complaints have been
heard of the regular soldiers or the
municipal police.
The relief committee reported ad-
ditional subscriptions of about $780,
600, the largest Of these being one OF
100000 by the Chicago Commercial
association.
The total number of bodies recov-
cred and buried up to Sunday night is
500. 1t Is impossible at the present
time to obtain any sort of death list
or even to make reliable estimates as
to the number of casualties. When
ever a body is found, it is buried i'm
mediately. without any formality what
ever, and as these burials have been
made at widely separated parts of the
city by different bodies of searchers
who don't even make prompt report
to headquarters, considerable confus-
ion has resulted in the estimating of
the total number of casualties and ex-
aggerated reports have resulted.

ALL AID FOR FRISCO.
SYMPATHY and HELP COMES
EVERY PART OF THE WORLD.
New York City Raised Nearly Ten
Million Dollars for Sufferers in San
Franeisco-London, Paris, Berlin
and Other Foreign Cities Send
Goid--Every City in U. 8. Helps.

New York.-The appeal of San
Francisco has been heard throughout
the civilized world. From every city
and town in this country, from Euro
pean capitals and some far east com.
munities comes news that all huma,
nifty In expressing its sympathy is also
offering enormous material assist
ance.
1t is estimated Sunday night that
the San Francisco relief fund Is
rapidly nearing the total of $4,000
600, and will have passed that figure
by Monday when the United States
congress, 1t is announced, will add
$1,50O,000 to the $1.000,O00 already
appropriated.
In the list of generous contributors
New York city ranks next to the gov
eminent itself and bids fair to far ex-
coed the federal contribution. Tonight
the New York fund amounted to ap-
proximately $2.000,000. with contribu-
tions coming in fast.
Inc BIdLe OL MaSSdCuuS6LtS mas uu-
dertaken to raise $3,000.0O0. and with
Boston's generous help is well ON the
way to the goal. Chicago's fund is ap-
preaching s1.00O,00O. and promises to
60 beyond that sum. Philadelphia will
send 100000. A score or more cities
are contributing 100000.
Portland will probably raise close to
$250,000, Pittsburg has given 100000,
Cleveland 100000. st. Louis 5000, 900,
Sacramento 100000, and Seattle $40.-
600 already, with much more in sight.
Nor Is the work or raising relief
funds confined to the large cities.
From every section. every state comes
the news of contributions made by
small towns. Not large in themselves.
their aggregate will be enormous.
Uncounted thousands are sending
contributions, and the grand total Of
TIE relief fund will probably never be
known. Across the seas, in London,
Paris, Berlin, wherever Americans
congregate, generous inflow of gold
Is reported.

Flames Ruin What the Earthquake
Fails to Do.

Flames Ruin What the Earthquake
Fails to Do.
A trip through the burned districts
of San Francisco revealed scene OF
unspeakable desolation.
From many points on Market street
as far as the eye could reach In any
direction there was nothing but skele-
ton walls and smoldering ruins.
1t should be borne in mind that San
Francisco was not destroyed by the
earthquake.
While old buildings in that part of
the city which stood on made" ground
east of Montgomery street, and some
of that district lying south of Market
street, 1t is true, suffered from the
shock, it was fire that wrought the
great devastation and wiped out the
entire business section and probably
half of the residence section of the
city.
The great modern steel structures
we're practically uninjured by the
earthquake except for cracked walls
and displaced plaster. All these great
structures, of course, were subsequent
ly ruined by the flames, so far as the
interior is concerned, but the walls are
in most cases intact.
The most notable cases of practical
immunity from the shock were the st.
Francis hotel, the Spreckels building
the Chronicle building and scores Of
other modern structures.
The branch of the United States
mint and the new postoffice at Sew
enth and Mission streets, are striking
examples of the superiority of the
workmanship put into federal build
ings. The old mint building surround
ed by a wide space of pavement, was
absolutely unframed. Not even the
few palm trees which stand ON either
side of its broad entrance were with
cred by the flames that devoured
everything around it. The new post
office building also was virtually un-
damaged by fire.
The shock did some damage to the
entrance to the building. The walls
are uninjured. Every window pane.
of course. is gone, as they are in al
most every building in town. but the
government will be able to resume
postal business Immediately. The
Paramount hotel, which Is seriously
damaged in the interior. is left intact
as to the walls and the management
has offered space in the building to
any of the relief committees that de-
sire to house the homeless or store
supplies in those parts Of the building
considered safe.
