EVERYTHING GONE.
The business district Of the city was
in a strip between the Northern Pacific
Railroad tracks and the Spokane river,
This strip was five squares across, and
extended about seven squares In length.
It was solidly built up with brick aud
stone structures, the cost Of whiGh varied
from sea, 900 10 $4,000.
Ten banking houses, five hotels, the
Opera House and many wholesale estab-
lishmentR, doing q business estimated at
half u million dollars each day, were sit.
uated within the district described. The
estimate Of q $4,000, 900 loss Is believed
here 10 be exaggerated, Half that
amount Is thought 10 be erthe actual
figure, assuming that the reported COM
plete destruction OF the city Is correct,
The population OF Spokane is about co.
900. The city possessed an excellent
