Harbor Front Saved From Fire After Six Hour Battle
San Francisco firefighters and volunteers fought a six hour blaze that threatened the harbor docks during the April 17 event. Despite ruined water mains and limited access to bay water, the water front and ferry building were saved with only minor wharf damage. Large oil tanks and lumber yards stood near the blaze as ships continued loading and unloading once flames were checked.

City council debates pump engine costs for Front Street
Tonight's council meeting centers on water famine effects and a proposed Front Street Pumping Station engine. Finance Committee members oppose the large rental or purchase sum, with six month rental at 9000 dollars and yearly 12000 dollars, or a 19000 dollar purchase. President Marx says the board authorized Engineer Hill to contract for the engine, deeming it necessary. The council last Monday ratified measures for relief, supporting the board’s action.
