SAN FRANCISCO LAB0RER HAS
NARROW ESCAPE
FIREMAN cOLLAPsEs WHILE ON
DUTY IN PIT BOTTOM
Captain Sullivan Also Comes Close
to Death, but Is Forced to
Quit Work by
Men
[By Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 91.-After
having been buried for four hours un-
der mass of earth that caved in on
him, William Schumacher. a laborer
was rescued late today by a crew OF
firemen. He will recover.
With only portion of his head free,
Schumacher, who was engaged in dig
ging a pit in the foundation of the new
Mckinley school building, Fourteenth
and Castro streets, was buried at a
depth of twenty-five feet from the sur
face. The women of the neighborhood
fed him hot cruel while a crew of fire.
men worked assiduously to eXtricate
him from a mass of earth which had
caVed in on him at II a, m.
Schumacher was in a semi-conscious
condition and it was feared he would
succumb before the debris could be re-
moved. Owing to the fact that the
walls of the pit crumbled at the slight
est pressure great care was exercised
by the rescuers.
The air at the bottom was so foul the
work was dangerous. Frank Smith, a
fireman, collapsed in the hole and was
taken unconscious to the German hos
pital. Captain Sullivan of the same
company was almost overcome by gas
and was forced by his men to cease
work in the excavation.

NEW YORK, Aug. BE. Fl. Harri-

He has informed his associates that it

to carry heavy burdens known as
Hartman Railway Policies"
Since Mr.. Hartman returned distri-
button and division of these RESPONSE
bilities has been going on under his

]. C. Stubbs, traffic director, and
julius Kruttschnitt, director of main
tenance and operations on the Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific, will be
responsible for the we'll being of these
two huge organizations. Tho differ
ence in their positions is that they will
not have daily orders from Hartman
headquarters.
Hartman hereafter will speak
through Robert S. Lovett counsel of
the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific.
Orders which he has been in the habit
of giving direct to Mr.. Stubbs and Mr..
Kruttschnitt and others will now go
through Lovett, and Hartman has
promised his physicians and his fam
lily that he win originate as few of

1000 BODIES ALREADY REC0V-
Erred FROM FLOOD
MONTEREY HAS 600 CoRPSEs IN
ITS LIMITS ALONE
Couriers Declare That Wild Waters
Destroyed Other Villages and
That Hundreds Were
Killed
tBy Associated Press. ]

MONTEREY, Mex, Aug. S1.-To-
night the total number OF bodies recov-
cred from along the shores of the Santa
Catarina river total approximately
1000. Little is known as to the loss of
life and damage outside of this city.
Nine hundred bodies were recovered
in the city.
The village of San Francisco was en-
tirely destroyed. the town of San Juan
badly damaged and the town of Ca
margo, on the Rio Grande, is reported
to have been completely washed away.
A rider from the town of Cadereyta,
this state, said tonight that twenty
bodies had been recovered there, that
hundreds were seen floating by with
the flood, and that, on his ride from
Cadereyta there was not a depression
in the ground or an arroyo which did
not contain from one to ten bodies left
by the floods.
The northern part of the state OF
Nuevo Leon has been flooded, and to-
ward Tampico, in the state of Tamaul-
pals, alarming reports have been re-
ceived. Nothing definite is known,
however, as telegraphic communication
has been opened with the district.
The property loss is now estimated at
between $4,000, 900 and $4,000, 600 in this
city, without counting the damage to
the railroads or down the valley"
The railroad situation remains un-
changed, but officials say a train will
arrive early tomorrow from Laredo
and that trains will leave for Laredo at
10 o'clock tomorrow morning. No trains
will leave for Mexico City, however, be-
fore another forty-eight hours.
The Santa Catarina river drains a
watershed of 1000 square miles. The
actual flow of water in the river at tho
height of the food was one-half of the
flow of the Nile and one-fourth of the
flood of the Mississippi when these
rivers are at their highest food stage.

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 31.-A dispatch

Nearly 1000 bodies have been recov-

Scores of bodies are said to have been
swallowed in the river quicksands.
The situation at Monterey is more
serious than was at first supposed. The
city lacks food and water The fed
eral government has sent an additional
s2O,0OO to be expended for relief.
