"sUBL1ME BUT TERRIBLE''
Ships Officer Describes Appearance Of
-. Burning City from Bay.

Port Los Angeles, April 2l.-The
steamer Itauri, bound from Hamburg,
Germany, put in here this morning and
is the first vessel to bring by the wa
ter route those who witnessed the de-
struction of San Francisco.
81 'The Itauri left San Francisco on
Thursday afternoon. when the flames
seemed to be at their height said
First Mate Charles Appen. AS seen
from the bay it was a sublime but ter
rible spectacle. We were more than
mile out in the roadstead, but the
wind, as it swept over the burning city
and down upon us, was like the breath
of demon. At times it was impos-
sible for us to remain on deck.
The water of the bay became heat
ed. The terrific conclusions Of dyna-
mite and the firing artillery by the
soldiers in their attempts to stop the
flames brought hundreds of fish to the
surface. Our clearance papers were
burned, but we could not retain our
anchorage and late Thursday after
noon we started for the open sea.
"Wharves which had not been con-
sumed were filled with people. They
beckoned to us and we could see them
holding up their hands in the attitude
of prayer. AS we passed thru the Col
den Gate the hills on each side were
mountains Of flame.
Representative F. G. Stevens of st. Paul left
for home today on account of the city election.

RELIEF FOR MERCHANTS
New York Chamber Of Commerce to

New York, April 21:-The chamber
of commerce probably will use the
money it has collected for the San
Francisco sufferers in a way different

other funds will be employed. 1t is
probable that the. chamber, believing
that the money subscribed to the other
funds will be more than adequate for
the immediate use for food and cloth.

These men will not be able to Dor,

the usual sources without security. The
chamber already has collected nearly
100000, and expects, before its sub
scriptions are closed, to have taken in
between 100000 and 100000. This,
distributed in small amounts of 500
to $500, will serve to place thousands Of
merchants in a position to go: on with

LATEST PROPOSITION.
Railroad From Gold6cld to Manhattan
With a Spur to Tonopah,

Following the printing of story In
the News ten days ago to the effect
that the Western Pacific proposes to
have line through to southern Call
fornia via the big bonanza mining
camps OF Nevada, the Goldheld News
says;
The latest proposition is a railroad
from Godfed TO Manhattan, with
probably a spur TO Tonopah. This is
a project backed by McElvaney az Tor
py and other Manhattan capitalists.
Goldiield is selected as an outlet, al
though the distance Is greater than TO
Tonopeh. because OF the easier grade
and the shortening Of the route TO the
south
THE plan is to subscribe and expend
sufficient amount Of money on the
project to render 1t possible TO float
bonds to complete the road. One Gold
field firm has offered to finance tho
company, but Mr.. Torpey stated to
the News that the citizens OF Man.
haitian prefer TO make the initial sub
scriptons themselves.
There Is a rumor that the line is to
be one Of the connecting links Of a
cut off from Goldfeld to Austin, which
would save nearly 200 miles on present
distance TO eastern points. 1t Is learned
that Philadelphia capitalists. known as
the Bullet Building crowd are ar
ranging to undertake the Manhattan
Austin portion OF the line. w. j. Arkell
OF Manhattan Is In Goldfeld looking
after matters connected with the rail-
road project. lie says that local busi-
ness men favor the proposition"
