MAINS BROKEN
BY EARTHQUAKE
Why the Water Failed While
San Francisco Was
Burning Down.

San Francisco. May 13.-One Of the
causes of the destruction of the greater
portion of San Francisco was revealed
today when Mayor Schmitz and Engineer
Schussler of the Spring Valley Water
company, accompanied by other officials,
made trip down the peninsula to in
spect the huge mains Of the water COM
pany which furnished the city's water
supply from Crystal springs and other
lakes. Several big breaks were found in
the mains and thus it was explained why
the city was without sufficient water
supply to fight the flames on the day 5
Immediately following the earthquake
Engineer Schussler showed where the
company had endeaVOred to obViate such
accidents by using pliable trestleS, but
in the seismic disturbance. The reser-
Voirs of the company were found to be
absolutely safe and most Of the cOnnec-
tions re-established. The city is now re-
ficient for domestic needs and for fire
protection in the unburned districts.

Church services were held on broader

used by congregations that had lost their
churches by fire and where the buildings
had not been harmed indoor worship was
resumed.

In view OF the May day demonstFa-

SC leaders were scarcely able to StaVc

undo all the results Of their mOdera-
ton, by sending their best orators into
the fray when Professor Koyalevsky, a
free lance member, proposed that in
stead Of telegraphing the house send
President MOurOmtsef TO PeterhOf with
the request for immediate amnesty.
This threatened to. sweep the house,
but the constitutional Democrats by
sharp politics managed TO sidetrack the
matter until after the selection OF a
committee which. according TO Russian
procedure, occupied several hours, and
then were able to defeat it.
Socialist Holiday Observed.
After this incident the lower house

respect for the socialist holiday as well

for the inclusion of a para graph on that
