Flames Ruin What the Earthquake
Fails to Do.
A trip through the burned districts
of San Francisco revealed a scene OF
unspeakable desolation.
From many points on Market street
as far as the eye could reach in any
direction there was nothing but skele-
ton walls and smoldering ruins.
It should be borne in mind that San
Francisco was not destroyed by the
earthquake.
While old buildings in that part OF
the city which stood on made" ground
east of Montgomery street, and some
of that district lying south of Market
street, it is true, suffered from the
shock, it was fire that wrought the
great devastation and wiped out the
entire business section and probably
half of the residence section Of the
city.
The great modern steel structures
we're practically uninjured by the
earthquake except for cracked walls
and displaced plaster. All these great
structures. of course, were subsequent
ly ruined by the flames, so far as the
interior is concerned, but the walls are
in most cases intact.
The most notable cases of practical
immunity from the shock were the st.
Francis hotel, the Spreckels building
the Chronicle building and scores OF
other modern structures.
The branch of the United States
mint and the new postofice at Sew
enth and Mission streets, are striking
examples of the superiority of the
workmanship put into federal build
ings. The old mint building surround
ed by a wide space of pavement, was
absolutely unframed. Not even the
few palm trees which stand on either
side of its broad entrance we're with
cred by the flames that devoured
everything around it. The new post
Office building also was virtually UNI
damaged by fire.
The shock did some damage to the
entrance to the building. The walls
are uninjured. Every window pane,
of course, is gone, asAthey are in al
most every building own, but the

up the saloons for good and al
ways-the present me~emant being
but a step in that direction. He
stated also that the next move Of
the ministers along the line Of law
enforcement after closing the sa-
looms on Sunday would be to close
them every night at midnight. This
second move, the union man stated,
would drive a number of union bar
tenders out of employment and it
was work they were after. Thus,
it was pointed out that, whatever
the wishes of the bartenders for
a day a week off might be, they
could not be expected to aid a
movement which later might rob
its members of employment.
The ministers in reply stated
that it was not their intention to
go farther than Sunday closing
and midnight closing was not on
their program.
The meeting was amicable In
every way and both parties were
anxious to have their position
clearly understood by the other.
