San Francisco Earthquake Shelters Opened for School Children
The city opened seventeen tents in Golden Gate Park at the request of the school board to shelter evacuees. The setup includes play grounds and equipment with benches and writing desks. Attendance is expected to reach over a thousand, with children using the tents for three months while exhibits of local history are prepared. Separately, bank withdrawals ran moderate as deposits surged but not as feared, and library losses from the quake left 23,000 items missing from 166,344 volumes. The Agnew’s State Hospital collapse caused 108 deaths, with eleven staff and seventy-seven patients among the casualties, and a preliminary list now tallies the dead.
