WILL PAY FIRE LOSS.
insurance Companies Could Not Pay for Earthquake Damages if
 They Wished.

New York, April 20.-Oficers of tho large lire insurance companies having their headquarters in this city an. nounced Thursday that losses by earthquake 1~ere not included in the fire insurance policies written for Cal. ilornia, and that such losses could not pc allowed, even if the companies were so inclined, for the reason that the laws of New York state prohibited 1t. The rulings on the losses by fire, however, will, it is said, be broad, tho insurance companies apparently agree. ing that to draw the lines with any severity whatsoever would be ex- tremely unwise in the face of such an appalling disaster where the suffering will no doubt be widespread.
 William c. Robb, secretary of the New York board of underwriters, said that all the buildings which have been dynamited will have to be settled fof by the insurance companies, since the statutes of the state of California, re- gardless of whether the statement is included in the policy or not, provide that the insurance companies are lia- ble for the damage done by dynamita-

SANTA ROSA RUINED.
Earthquake's Devastation Spread from San Francisco to Surrounding Towns
 Hundreds Reported Dead.

San Francisco, April 20, (via Oak land)-Reports from the interior are most alarming. Santa Rosa, one of the prettiest cities of the state in the prosperous county of Sonoma, is a total wreck. There are 10000 home less men, women and children huddled together. The loss of life is not to be estimated. It probably will reach the hundreds. As the last great seismic tremor spent it's force in the earth the whole business portion tumbled into ruins. The main street is piled many feet deep with the fallen buildings not one business building is left intact
 This destruction includes all of the county buildings. The four-story courthouse, with dome mounting high into the heavens, is merely a pile Of broken masonry Nothing is left Identification is impossible.
 What was not destroyed by the earthquake has been swept by fire Until the flames leaped into the heavens there was hope of saving the residence district It was soon ap-' parent that any such idea that might have been entertained was to be abandoned. This was appreciated by the citizens, and they prepared to desert their homes. Not even their household goods were taken. They made for the fields and hills, to watch the destruction of one of the most beautiful cities of the West
 Messengers bring the saddest tidings of the destruction of Heraldsbure Geyserville, Cleverdale, Hopland and Ukiah.
 This report takes in the country as for north as Mendocino and Lake counties as as far west as the Pacific ocean. These are frontier counties and have not as large towns as farther south In every case the loss of life and property is as shocking as here.
