ONE HUNDRED KILLED IN
TOAN OF SANTA ROSA

Santa Rosa, April 21.-The list OF
known dead totals s. and 1t IS believ-
ed that one hundred is a conservative
estimate Of the number killed In the
earthquake here on Wednesday.
The entire business section is IN
ruin and practically every residence
in the city is damaged
Il is impossible for outsiders to real
lie the actual situation here. The
completeness Of the devastation has
mt rich and poor on the same level,
commercially speaking. Milionaires
and laborers are all poor together.
Money has no value as there. is no
place to spend It.
Plenty Of provisions are being sup
piled from other towns and much is
being brought in from the country
surrounding the city.
The city is under martial law.

ternoon completely destroyed the new

at Flomaton and one man, Ed. Tuck
er. of Eufaula, was killed by being
struck with a falling chimney. The
entire structure was demolished and
but little of the contents was saved.
The fire was first discovered short
~ after 5 O'Clock and by six the de-
pot was a mass of ruins. The build
ing burned like finder and the fire
was beyond control within few
minutes after it was first discovered,
No other property, Of the railroad
company was destroyed.
At $50 p. m. after the fire had
practically burned itself out Ed.
Tucker, of Eufaula, Ala, who had
been in Flomaton for several days
operating a merry-go-round, yentured
near one of the chimReys, when it
tottered and fell pinning him be
meath a mass of hot bricks and
smoIiering embers. Every effort
was made to save him, but when he
was finally taken out life was ex-
tinct. The body was badly bruised.
The origin of the fire cannot be as
certained definitely. but it is under
stood to have started in the north
end of the building.

Telegraph Co.. running through Flo
n1aton. as well as those of the rail
road company, are burned.

THE DAMAGE may REACH
FIVE HUNDRED MILLION

San Francisco, April 21.-The fire
appeared to have burned itself out this
morning. Last night the flames
spread from Mob Hill ridge toward
the big sea wall sheds, docks and
warehouses. but reports Of the dam
age are conflicting.
A reporter who skirted the water
front in a tug reported that all but
four docks had been burned from
Fisherman's wharf clear around to
the Ferry building This means that
nearly a mile Of grain sheds and
wharves have been added to the gen.
eral obstruction.
Fire broke out near the Ferry build
ing last night, but FIRE tugs saved the
building.
Today in the section north of Mar
ket street the ruined district is prac-
tieally bounded on the west by Van
Ness avenue.
The total loss is impossible to estl-
mate accurately yet One Of the most
prominent insurance men said today:
NY idea is that something like two
hundred million damage has been
done. I have heard other insurance
men make it FIVE hundred million. 1t
Is simply too big for a human head to
figure out"
Now dissatisfaction is expressed at
the conduct Of some Of the soldiers.
Many Of those doing guard duty are
mere boys who, brought 70 a high
pitch Of excitement, have been shoot
ing at pedestrians Chief Of Police
Dianan has asked the military author
tiles that many Of these companies
be withdrawn.
Despite the exodus Of thousands
nom the city a multitude Of destitute
remain and reports Of suffering from
hunger and lack Of shelter are heard
On al sides.
Many rUmOrs Of summary execution
Of men caught looting are prevalent
but cannot be verified. There is a
persistent but unoonfrmed rumor
1hat two men were hanged in JeffeT-
son square last night.
There was little water in the un-
burned section last night but il is be-
Aeyed that this viii be remedied to-
morrow.

Exhaustive Report.

This report vii be a most exhaus-
tive document. It will not alone
deal with the several Characters Of
soils found in the county. but the
different species Of plant life found
viii be deliberately treated. Accom-.
panying the report will be a COM
plete map of the county upon which
every public road and stream or
other body Of water will be accu.
rately shown. This map will also de-
scribe in different cOlOrs, to frac-
tons Of quarter sections, the sever
al characters of soils found and de-
scribed in the text of the report.
Varieties of Soil.
The chief value Of the report will.
be its exact location of areas OF land
adapted to the culture OF
the different varities of farm and
garden vegetation and fruits. In
other words if a section Of land at
Olive, or Brent, or Roberts has
proven by observation and analysis
to be especially adapted to the cul-
ture Of sugar cane, while the sur
rounding sections show special
to the culture Of Irish
potatoes or corn; turnips or beans;
peaches or grapes, the report will re-
cite the facts, and the several sec
tons will be shown on the map to
locate them.
The distribution.
The report will. in all probability.
not be in form for distribution before
next December, but when II is com
pleted several hundred copies Of it
will be secured by the Chamber Of
Commerce.
It will be remembered that the
