DevOuring Dogs and Hungry VuItureS Tore
 A SiCkening Feast
Ghastly Discovery by Searchers Telegraph Hill and Russian Hill Week Ago Crowned With the Palaces of MlionaireS.

San Francisco, April 24.-One of the gruesome scenes that has followed the fire was that witnessed on Telegraph and Russian hills and along the entire north beach of the city this morning. when scores of starved dogs were found eating human bodies. The an imals were discovered gnawing and tearing at the corpses half buried in the ruins. Where only a leg or an arm protruded the dogs were digging for the rest of the body.
 Men who had been sent into the ruins of homes to look for what little property that might have escaped the flames, came upon this sickening con- dition, and immediately reported it to the naval officers in command of the water front military districts. Tn re- sponse to their appeal that something be done, bluejackets were detailed in that vicinity All morning rifle re- ports could be heard on the hillside and along the beach until the dogs were killed. Men were pressed into service, either to bury the bodies or throw them into the bay. In a few places smoldering fires were found. and there it was possible to cremate the animals.
 It was not believed that there were so many dead in the ruins of Russian hill until the dogs were found digging for the bodies. When the dogs have all been run down and slain, a further search will be made of these sections to obtain the bodies and bury them as soon as possible.
 REMOVING THE WRECK.
 As a welcome relief to the officials and citizens of San Francisco who have looked upon the ruins of the city and upon the monstrous piles of bricks and stone and twisted iron that were once their homes and places of busi- ness. is the announcement that the Southern Pacific railway will aid in any way in the work of clearing away the debris The railroad officials are ready to build a track through the heart of the devastated city from liar risont street to the bay and to run their flat cars in for the wreckage that must

THE FINAL
 INTERVIEW
Of the First Admiral of
 the American Navy
Impressive CeremOniaIs Attending the Last Laying Away at Annapolis of John Paul Jones.

Annapolis, Md April 24.-The re-in- Jones, the first American admiral, was celebrated today with elaborate cere- monies. The address was delivered by President Roosevelt. The ceremonies were attended by representative of the various branches and departments of the government and by representatives of foreign governments, conspicuous among whom was the ambassador of France. In a brief address, President Roosevelt said:
 On behalf of the American people wish to thank our ancient ally, the great French nation, that proud and gallant nation, to whose help we once owed it that John Paul Jones was able to win for the Stars and Stripes the victory that has given him deathless fame, and to whose courtesy we now owe it that the body of the long dead hero has been sent hither, and that to commemorate the reception of the illus trious dead a squadron of Fre..aG war ships has come to our shores
 The annals of the French navy are filled with the names of brave and able seamen, each of whom counted death as a mistress when the honor of his flag was at stake; and among the fig ures of these brave men there loom the larger shapes of those who, like Tourville, Duquesne, and the Bailli de
 Suffren. won renown as fleet admiraIs inferior to none of any navy in their day of martial prowess.
 In addition to welcoming the diplo- matic and official representatives of France here present, let me also ex- press my heartiest Acknowledgements to our former ambassador to Paris General Horace Porter. to whose zeal ous devotion we particularly owe 1t that the body of John Paul Jones has been brought to our shores.
 When the body. was thus brought over, the representatives of many diff ferent cities wrote to me. each asking that 1t should find it's last resting place in his city. But I feel that the place of all others in which the memory Of the dead hero will most surely be a living force is here in Annapolis where year by year we turn out the midshipmen who are to officer in the future the navy, among whose found CTS the dead man stands first. More over the future naval officers, who live
 within these walls, will find in the ca
 reer of the man whose life we this day celebrate, not merely subject for ad-
 miration and respect, but an object | lesson to be taken into their innermost | hearts. Every officer in our navy
 should know by heart the deeds of John Paul Jones. Every officer in our navy ! should feel in each fiber of his being | the eager desire to emulate the en- ergy. the professional capacity, tho | indomitable determination. and daunt. i less scorn of death which marked Johr Paul Jones above all his fellows.
 The history of our navy, like the his. | tory of our nation. only extends ovel
 a period of a century and a quarter;
 yet we already have many memorfe, ! of pride to thrill us as we read anC ] hear of what has been done by. oul fighting men of the sea, from Perry and Macdonough to Farragut anC

NEARLY ALL WILL PAY.

Oakland, April 24.-State Insurance Commissioner E. MyrOn Wolfe an nOunced today that nearly all the large insurance companies would be able to make satisfactory adjustments of the losses caused by the San Francisco fire. He estimates that the amounts for which the companies are liable will probably reach S25O, 900. 900.
 Commissioner Wolfe says he hopes the authorities of San Francisco will now grant the hitherto unanswered appeal of the fire insurance companies for an auxiliary salt water system on Twin Peaks, one of the highest points in the range of hills back of San Francisco. He suggests that wide streets be laid out in the rebuilding of the city, the demonstration having been made that fires are more easily confined when the thoroughfares are broad.

A DREAM OF YEARS
 MAY BE REALIZED
San FranciScanS Have a Place Now
 to Build Model City.

San Francisco, April 24.-Steps are being taken to organize for the re- building of San Francisco on the plans of Architect Daniel Burnham. While the various other committees have been busy with the relief work. many prominent citizens have been in con- sultation and within the next few days plans will be outlined and the work of making arrangements for the most beautiful city in the world will be built
 w. E. Bartlett. one of the men in this latest movement, says that all the funds needed for this great work will be forthcoming just as soon as the committee is ready to begin it's work. Telegrams have been sent all over the country explaining the plans of the committee and great men of finance have expressed their willingness to CO., operate in the great work and advance any funds that are needed.
 The work will commence right at the water front. This department will be entirely rebuilt on new and modern as well as picturesque lines. It is estimated that the work right there will cost $25,OOO.OOO. New wharves and the like will be constructed on entirely different lines and new depots will be built. The other portions of the city will be improved exactly af- ter MT Burnham's plans, which have been fully explained in the San Fran cisco press for the last two years. The great boulevard, the terrace at Twin Peaks. and various parks and other beaty spots wOll now be constructed.

It is Believed That Nearly all Will be
 Able 10 Settle.

New York, April 24-There was much talk in the financial district in this city yesterday to the effect that several American fire insurance com panies would have to go out of busi- ness on account of their losses in the San Francisco conflagration. Up to to- day, however. no company had admit ted it's inability to pay it's losses, and officials of some of the companies pos itively announce that all losses will be paid in full. It is said that in several cases the stockholders will make up the deficiencies by assessments.
