SAN FRANCISCO, March 11.
Several women were injured, some
seriously, in n fire which destroyed
three apartment houses here and se--eral
stores, a grocery, bakery and
restaurant, today.
A number of thrilling rescues were
made by firemen in which two of the
men of the department were serious
ly hurt. The fire started in the
basement of the Hayes Vnlley room
ing house shortly before daybreak.
The flames quickly spread to tho
Valley apartment bouse adjoining
and to the Kuss hotel nearby, in
whicb. were scorres of sleeping fam
ilies. Soon the three buildings were
ablaze, several stores- on the ground
uoor oi the apartment honses con
taining inflammable materials ad
ding to the rapid spread of the
flames.
When the firemen arrived men and
women in night clothing were prepar
ing to leap from the windows to the
street
Miss Mary Itae Fenner was awak
ened by the smoke which filled her
room on the third floor. She be
came frenzied with fear, ran to the
fire escape and leaped. She land
ed among the telepgraph wires and
nung suspended in mid-air. I
Firemnn James Herliby of engine
34 went to her rescue. He climbed
the telegraph pole and holding on
with one hand, reached from his pre
carious position and dragged the
fainting woman from the wires.
As he started to descend he slip
ped and fell to tho ground. Both
be nnd Miss Fenner were seriously
hurt and were taken to the Central
emergency hospital.
In the meantime similarly heroic
rescues were being made by firemen
and police. The work of the firemen
was impeded by tho general panic in
the bolls and corridors of tho build
ings and on the streets in front of
the burning structures.
Tho police aided in arousing the
endnngored occupants of tho apart
ments nnd in geting them to the
street in safety.
Aomng tho injured who wero tak
en to the centrnl emergency hospitnl
were Mrs. Annio Mclssncs; Mrs. Mn
tildn Lorenzo, Mrs. Lolo Romem,
Mrs. Gadnloupo Diaz nnd Fireman
Thomas Gnllrigber.

WHAT!
RENK, Soudan, March 11. Colo
nel Theodore Roosevelt has abso
lutely nothing to say to tho public
regarding American politics.
All efforts to get him to discuns
the "insurgents," the tnriff, the Bal-linger-Pinchot
controversy or tho Al
bany "graft" investigation failed to-'A modern house for sale? Yes, sir;
day as he, for the present, absolutely ye lmvc one wUb g roomg( bcMo do5.
ignores all such topics. . . ,
Looking bronzed and as hard as a(ot8 and two ,arse ''"I0' 000 8crene-
pnze-fighter, Roosevelt arrived on
the steamer Dal, today and immedi
ately encountered a group of news
paper correspondents who came
here on the Abbas, a specially char
tered boat-
He greeted them with characteris
tic enthusiasm, all of the newspaper
men being his personal friends.
Tho colonel and Kormit are both
in perfect health but Cunningham
Loring, neller and MenrnB showed
the effects of their recent escape
from fevers. They are all richt but
they clearly did not withstand the
rigors of tho African son as well as
the colonel.
Colonel Roosevelt plans to spend
eight days on tho trip from Khar
toum to Cairo. He will sail for Na
pies on April 1. jnrom maples, a
number of sightseeing trips will bo
made and then tho party will jour
ney to Rome, Vienna nnd Bnda-
Pcsth. He expects to arrive nt Par
is on April 23.
A day each will be spent in Bel
gium, Holland nnd Christinnin,
Sweden. He then will go to Berlin,
where he expects to arrive May 10,
From there he will go direct to Lon
don, nriving there May 10.
