By , ing of the first day eight square miles had been burned and 300,000 of the city's 425,000 residents had deserted their homes in panic. Whole blocks of buildings were dy- namited to create firebreaks. Au- thorities herded 200,000 of the ref- ugees into Golden Gate Park and made desperate efforts to supply them with food and water. Wind Fanned Flames On the second day a stiff wind fanned the flames to new fury and cut off egress down the peninsula on which San Francisco is situated. With the third day the fire abated somewhat but completed the ruin of | the financial and shopping districts. | Tt was not until the fourth day | that citizens could set to work to re- | store the 28,000 buildings which lay | in embers. The catastrophe occurred before the days of city planning, and rap- id rebuilding, authorities admit, showed more courage and zeal than wisdom.
