Fire on Haight St

Fire on Haight St
Just afer 6.30 this morning, a great conflagration swept through the building on Haight St. that houses the Horseshoe Café ("Under New Management"). Smoke billowed through the sunshine, and a half-dozen hook-and-ladder trucks, ambulances, and prowlers converged on the block. Trolley buses were halted at Divisadero, but an unfortunate few are stuck between Steiner and Pierce. Others with diesel backup engines motored along Waller or Page, creating emergency transit zones.
