The scene of the destruction was visited by a staff man '
from the Los Angeles office of the Associated Press.
The .main scene of destruction is State street',' the prin

terror of the inhabitants, ' '

the city's water was demolished but the .flow from the
main dam high in the mountains seems unchecked. The
San Marcos building, the largest office building in the
city, was practically demolished. The north wing of the
four story structure fell in a tangled heap and it is fear
ed that several persons are dead under' the piles of
oncK ana piaster. .
