DINERS KILLED IN 045 EXPLOSION Several Lives Lost and Many Hurt in Wreck of Los Angeles Restaurant PIPES HAD LEAKED LOS ANGELES, Feb. 13.—An explo- slon of gas that had leaked from pipes in a restaurant near Second and Main streets, in the he!f! of the city, killed four persons, horribly mangled and injured a half-dozen others seriously, injured nearly a score more and com- pletely wrecked the two-story brick building today. The restaurant, which was conducted by B. Cessarti, was com- pletely wrecked, as were also the tail- oring establishment of H. L. Yerger and a small laundry office. Offices of several small concerns in the second floor were completely ruined. Follow- ing are the names of the dead: John W. Main, aged 56 yvears, ranch- er, who was seated at table in restau- rant; Lavonne Meyers, waltress; Annie Cofer, waitress; J. M. C. Fuentes, aged 47, taflor. Following are the names of the in- jured, several of whom will die: E. §. Williams, 41, miner, Pomona, compound tracture of right ankle; F. H. Merrill, 48, Po- mona, both ankles broken; C. C. Haggerty, 52, taflor, 12511 South Flower street, nose crushed, both ankles broken and ebin erushed; 8. Sovoki, 21, candymaker, 3045 East First street, broken arm and broken' right ankle; May Anderson, 25, waltress, 216 East Fifth street, both legs crushed; Harry Kayes, 22, candymaker, 128 North San Pedro street, bruised; Herman Boessler, 46, taflor, 110 West Second street, left ankle sprained_and mouth cut; Ed L. Davis, black- smith, 55 East Fourth street, Pomona, foot crushed; F. Stevens, 71, janitor, 110 West Sec- ond street, back badly Sprained and probably injured internally; Mrs. Tessie Graves, waitress, 117 North Broadway. left band cut; Sylvia Cobn, 50 West Seventh street, bruised’ and burned: Cora Ralston, 1379 Newton street, bruised and sprained; Mrs. Aunna Hooper, 3301 South Spring street, brulsed; Frank Thompson, walter in Jim's Chowder-house, hands and body scalded; Miss Emma Haggerty, emplove In Yergers taflor shop. both legs fractured below the knees; A. ‘Wasilus, 113 North Bunker Hill avenue, not serlously injured; Annfe Clifford, address not known, burned on face and hands; Harry War- ren, address not known, seriously but not fatally hurt. Another of the injured, Charles Blu- menthal, will probably die. Miss May Anderson, a waitress, was so badly hurt that it was necessary to amputate both legs. A remarkable coincidence was the fact that C. C. Haggerty, an employe of the tailoring establishment, sus- tained fractures of both legs below the knees, and his daughter Emma, who was working with him, was injured in an exactly similar manner. They both were terribly injured otherwise. Several of those who were hurt were patrons of the restaurant and were in the dining-room at the time. Those in the rear of the building, however, suf- fered the worst, as the entire back end of the structure fell in a heap. The bodies of the two walitresses were not recovered until late this afternoon. Both were buried under tons of brick and mortar. The building was an old one and is a total loss. Other buildings in the im- mediate vicinity, chief of which was that of the First National Bank, also suffered severely. The exact cause of the explosion is as yet unknown, but it is believed that the gas was ignited by an employe of the gas company, who was searching in the basement for a leak in the main. He was terribly in- jured and may die. Many people had narrow escapes and a number of brave rescues of injured were made’ by tha oprietor, who rushed into the snioke and dust and dragged out maimed and helpless ones from the danger of falling walls. — el CROWDED CAR ON FIRE A serious panic was narrowly averted on a Fillmore-street car yesterday after- noon, when flames were discovered un- der the flooring. The car was crowded | with passengers, many of whom were women, and for a moment it seemed that a crush in the doorways was in- evitable. The cooler ones in the jam succeeded in controlling the more ex- citable until all were clear of the car. In the meantime a motorman rushed into a store and procured a busket of water, with which he extinguished the flames. A A A A A A A A A A A A AN AN Sailed Feb 12—Schr Prosper, for San Pedro.

Cormell, Porterville, Tulare < Miss Merani, the intrepid leader of the gold prize contest, remained at 2 standstill yesterday. Mrs. Dohert;, her| strenuous rival from Sacramento, reg- istered a gain of 10,400, but did 1ot juite succeed in recapturing first place. It will take about 1200 votes more to| do the trick, provided Miss Merani will stand for it. Sacred Heart College gained 2800, but still lacks over 20,000 votes of hav- ing enough to head the procession. Miss Ethel Potter, the little Stanis- laus County favorite, gained 3400, but needs about 2500 more to oust Miss Tillie Harts of Danville from seventh place. Miss Mollye Sheridan, the jolly Stock- | ton girl, gained 5300 and captyred tenth | place from Christ Church Athletic| Club. The young Sausalito athletes| are now only in the $40 class of prize- winners, and need a boost to get them back among the “upper ten.” | .Miss Lois B. Pfitzer of Newman gained 2000 without changing her po- sition, No, 12. HOODOO NO. 13 The hoodoo number, 13, seems to have a strange fascination for Miss Gladys Adcock. She lives in house No.| 13, in refugee camp No. 13, and on Feb- ruary 13 gained enough votes, 1550, to make her No. 13 in the race. Miss Gladys is still suffering from diseased bones, and is unable to make a per- sonal canvas for votes. In her helpless | condition she implores all who can to| help her to win one of the cash prizes, | the larger the better, for she is in des- perate need of the money. Mrs. Rosa E. Tracy registered a gain of 1000, for which she desires to (hlnkl the good people of Novato, who fa-| vored her with their votes. ! Hattie M. Hoppock of Fresno, by registering a gain of 6058, has moved up from No. 26 to No. 19. Miss Pearl Van Meter of Lafayette graduated from the kindergarten class by making a gain of 3000 and moving up to No. 28. It will now require 6300 votes or better to win a Prize of $20. That is the score of Miss Elizabeth Bockerman of Alameda, who is No. 25 in the run- ning. Mrs. Ellen Smith of Walnut Creek is No. 26, with a score of 6000. NO. 20 IN THE SCORE Tt will take 11,150 votes or better to win a prize of $30. Mrs. Theresa Cole- man of Point Richmond has just the| requisite number and is No. 20 in the score list. Effie Vaughn of Merced is| next in line with a score of 10,950. A score of 14,400 or better is needed to win a prize of $40. James Anis Quinn, No. 15, has the requisite min- imum number of votes, but Tobin and Winchester, the Presidio sharpshoot- ers, are only 200 votes behind him. A score of 28,850 is necessary to win a prize of $60. Miss Mollye Sheridan, No. 10 in the score list, is the last in line for a prize of this amount, and Christ Church Athletic Club of Sausa- lito, now No. 11, will have to gain over 5000 votes to win an extra $20. CONDITIONS OF THE CONTEST The contest is divided Into three pe- riods, constituted as follows: First, November 19 to January 13, eight weeks; second, January 12 to _.arch 3, seven weeks; third, March 3 to April 14, six weeks. There are twenty-five prizes to be competed for during each contest pe- riod, consisting of twenty-five purses of gold coin, ranging in amount from $20 up to $500, cnd making a total of $2000 from each period. There are also twenty-five special purses of grand sweepstake prizes for the twenty-five contestants making the best scores during the entire contest, the largest of these purses being $1000 and the smallest $40, and amounting to $4000 in the aggregate. The final distribution of the prizes will be made on April 18, the first an- niversary of the San Francisco fire. The twenty-five purses for each of the three contest periods and the twenty-five special sweepstake prizes make a grand total of 100 prizes, amounting to $10,000, to be distributed among the winners. Subseribers to The Call will have the privilege of selecting the winners of these prizes by preparing their sub- scriptions for any length of time that may be convenient, each paild sub- scription counting for a certain number of votes that may be cast in favor of any contestant whom the subscriber may desire to assist in getting a share of the money. The contestant receiv- ing the highest number of suca votes during any contest period will receive the largest purse; the one receiving the second highest number of votes the next largest purse, and so on until the number of prizes allotted for that pe- riod is exhausted. The same rule will! apply to the final distribution of the | larger prizes given for the highest ag-! gregate scores.
