BOILING HOT MUD
GUSHES FROM EARTH

SAN FRANCISCO, April 20.-Hun-
dreds of gushers of boiling hot mud
leaped from the earth near Pajaro yes
terday morning, adding their inexpli-
cable existence to the terrors of the
railroad situation.
Along the tracks running from Sa-
Pajaro to Del Monte these phenomena
were observed.
Trackmen who were sent out as soon
as the quake was felt were terrified
at the sight that met their eyes.
From out of sand and loan at the
track side poured these streams OF
mud, sending their streams twelve to
fourteen feet high and gushing con-
stantly like geysers.
The muck was boiling hot and of the
color of blue shale. Streams of this
stun ran In bitches along the track
and over into the neighborlng fields.
The gushing continued an hour the
geysers slowly subslding, each leaving
little crater In the midst OF It's pool

BERKELEY PRACTICALLY
ESCAPES DAMAGE.

BERKELEY, April 1S.-Berkeley
practically escaped serious damage
from the earthquake The college
town shows no signs this morning. COM
paratively, of the disaster There are
q few chimneys down, but they are
not numerous. The principal brick
buildings of the college town give forth
but little evidence of the terrible catas-
trophe that has visited this section of
the state. Some cornlces were wrench
ed from their fastenings, but the build
ings are still on their foundations, and
1t will require an outlay of but few
thousand dollars to put the town in
as perfect condition as it was before
the visitation.
All of the books of the public library
were thrown from their shelves and
scattered about the floor: the shelving
was toppled over, and yet there is not
IA crack i'm the walls of the structure.
The same thing happened to the
library of the University of California,
which is also brick building. 1t will
take considerable time to rearrange
the many volumes that were ON the
shelves and which are now piled in
a shapeess heap in the middle of the
floors. but there Is hardly a hundred
dollars damage to the building itself.
There were many Wild rumors in
the town early in the morning. but
when they We're traced to their founda-
ton it was found that they originated
more from fright than from fact.
Members of the police force who had
been struck by pieces of falling plaster
made reports to their chief OF wrecked
buildings. but their statements We're
found not to be based on fact
There was statement that the new
building of the West Berkeley Bank
had been razed, but investigation dem
onstrated that the only damage to the
structure was the loss of few bricks
from the cornice on the south side.
When the shock came this morning
many of the residents of the college
town packed their belongings and hur-
ried to the foothills, leaving behind
them all of their property that was too
bulky to carry. Many of them have
camped there during the day.
The main leading to the reservoir al
North Berkeley was wrenched by the
earthquake. and a great volume OF
water shot into the air for distance
of several hundred feet. 1t continued
to spurt water until the water from
the reservoir had been spread over an
area of several acres and ran down the
cutters into the business section fo
Berkeley.

TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE.

The most terrifying experience suf-
fered by any Oaklanders in the shock
was that endured by over thirty peo-
pie who live in a three-story frame
boarding-house at No. 566 Eleventh
street. Though the house is twisted
out of plumb and bulged outward like
paper dolls house and though the
interior is wrecked beyond all descrip-
tion, not one of the inmates was hurt.
When the shock came the terrified
inmates sought to escape by the stair
ways, but found that the main stair
case leading down to the front hall was
broken and clogged with fallen plaster
and lathwork. They tried the rear exit
and found that the walls of the house
had been so twisted about 1t that
egress in that direction was impossible.
Finally ladders were brought and
temporary escapes were improvised out
OF bedding. BY this means all OF the
people in the house escaped, though
most of their belongings were buried in
the ruins.
Those who were in the house at the
time of the shock were Mrs. ID.
Orchard, Mr.. and Mrs. ID. Meek, A. L.
Sanford and wife. MARITIME Christian
son. A. II. Bouk, Miss Julia Ferreira
Mr.. and Mrs. j. l.. Mitchell Mabel

eeph Viera A. Buchanan, w. lie Page,

ARE BURIED ALIVE.

Buried beneath tons OF brick. NOR
tar, shattered timbers and twisted
iron, the bodies of five occupants OF the
lodging house above the Empire tlfea-
ctr were taken from the pile of debris
two hours after the terrible earth
quake.
They met death as the result of the
topping over of the wall of the build
ing adjoining the theater. All the VIC
Tins were asleep when the avalanche
of stone and timber crashed through
upon them. Their bruised and batter
ed bodies were taken from their beds,
where they hed been pinned.
Freida Witcher, youngest daughter
of one of the dead was taken alive
from beneath the ruins an hour after
the wall had caved in and buried her
father and sister.
Ine gtr. $ escape was most wonder
full. Occupying the same room as her
father and sister she jumped out OF
bed when the first tremor of the earth
quake was felt and attempted to reach
the doorway leading into the hall.
Before she could carry out her plan
however, the crash came and she was
hurled against the further wall. The
bulk of the debris fell upon the bed
the young girl had just vacated and
upon which her father and sister lay
asleep Frieda finding herself weighted
down with many pounds of brick
squeezed against the wall and attempt
ed to push forward towards the door
But it was no use and she gave vi
the attempt
Unable to move the fraction of al
inch and pinned in on all sides, the
little miss managed to get just enough
pure air to preserve life until the
rescuers reached her.

UNDER MARTIAL LAW.

Mayor Mott and Chief of Police Viii
son at 10 o'clock declared the city
practically under martial law.
All \ saloons have been ordered
Closed
stores that have been left opened by
the damage done by the earthquake.
The entire police force has been call
ed out and is aiding in the protection
of property.
The fire department is also aiding in
the work.
The building, No. S27 and No S29
Fourteenth street, was totally destroy
ed. The building was occupied by the
families of ]. Noyes. H. Savage. j.
Westman and r. Lynch. The occu-
pants escaped without injury.

The tower OF the Unitarian church
was thrown down and considerable
damage done to the edifice.
The shock knocked away the roof of
the building at Seventeenth street and
San Pablo avenue occupied by the Re-
lance Athletic Club. The cupola por-
ton of the building was wrecked, the
roof smashed and a great deal of dam
age done to the north and east walls
Of the structure. In the interior of
the building much damage was done,
and it will cost at least $4,000 to re-
pair the wreckage

front of the stores.
Heeseman's plate window on Wash.

windows completely shattered, and the

simply reduced to so many piles OF
broken glass.
The quake brought with II pre-
liminary hsaving before the crash, and
the glass went with a snap.

HAVOC ON WATERFRONT.

A hurry trip over the waterfront
in an automobile revealed that the
damage in that section of the city was
confined mostly to the brick structures.
All of the big factory plants, along the
whole estuary are considerably dam
aged.
One of the heaviest losses Is that at
the Dickie shipyards, where the New
Key Route Ferry-boat was in course
of construction. The boat is all but
a dead loss to the contractors, and it
is estimated that the damage done
would not be covered under 100000.
The tracks that were recently laid
by the Oakland Traction Consolidated
on the Alameda division west of the
Webster-Street draw-bridge sunk for
300 yards, and large force of men
have been put to work to repair the
damage.
The Rose Construction Brick Plant
that was erected last summer on the
Estuary at a cost of 800 900 was razed
completely. There is hardly one brick
left standing upon the other The
buildings of the Oakland Gas Light and
Heating Company, at the foot of Mar

MIRACULOUS ESCAPES.

An escape as miraculous as that OF
Miss Witcher was that of a. Benjamin
Van Slyte, Il stage hand. Van Slyte
occupied room few doors down
the hallway from that Of the Witch
ers. Like ,he girl, he was awakened
by the first tremble. Likewise he made
a dash for the doorway and safety.
He had just placed his hand on the
knob and was in the act of turning It,,
when with an awful crash part of the
wall Immediately above his bed gave
way and flooded his room with some
eight feet of debris. Van Slyte was
jammed up tight against the door
and it was in this position the firemen
found him.
The only part of the body that he
could move was his head. When they
battered in the upper door and the
man was dragged from his perilous
position he fell limp into the hands of
the rescuers. 1t was some time before
he was revived.
The members of the "Lifeboat Quar-
tet"-W. B. Mcknight, K. Turner and
Harold Leon-also narrowly escaped
death from the falling wall. Their
Witchers on the west. When the crash
came the young men were out of bed
and made dash for the hallway. Nc
Knight was struck on the head by a
falling timber and severely cut, while
Leon was hit by a falling brick and
knocked senseless. He was picked up
by his comrade. however. and taken
from the building. Turner escaped
without a scratch.
Henry Herspring, who has been oc-
cupying a room which was in di-
rect line with the falling wall, today
considers himself the luckiest man in
Oakland. For some unknown reason
he decided to go out to his home in
East Oakland last night. 1t was this
fact alone that saved him from meet
ing death as horrible as that which
overlook the other dodgers. The young
mans bed was covered with several
feet of debris.

EFFECT IN HOSPITALS.

The morning horror that struck ter
ror to strong hearts proved serious to
the weaker ones in hospitals. The big
institutions for the care of the sick
We're thrown into chaotic state by the
wrenching of buildings, demolishing of
water pipes, tumbling of chimneys and
interior furnishings, as prevailed
throughout. In Fabiola the breaking
of mains added flood to the dan
ger from fires and falling objects.
Rooms and corridors were flooded.
Corridors We're as running streams
and rooms We're as so many
lakes. The self-possession and bravery
of nurses and attendants was tested.
Thoughts of their own safety and ter
ror for what the next moments might
hold. must be banished and all care de-
voted to helpless ones on the cots. The
patients were, with all possible speed,
removed to those residences in tire inn
mediate vicinity where shelter was
possible. The early dawns first few
frightful moments had reduced most OF
the nearby homes to mere wreckase
but those to which the angry fates had
been more kind were thrown open as
improvised hospitals.
AT Providence hospital. on New
Broadway, the building being of frame
the terror of falling walls was spared
somewhat, but the falling of plaster
and breaking of water pipes created
havoc. while shattered chmneys made
flre-building in ranges impossible, be-
ing too dangerous to consider.
