Seattle Letter.
SEATTLE, w. r., June 10th, 1889.

SEATTLE, w. T., June 10th. 1885,
Editor TRANSCRIPT:
l have no good news to write The
business portion of the city is nearly all
destroyed by fire. Fifteen million dollars
worth of property are now in ashes.
The extent of the burned district is II
miles in length by I of a mile in width,
with not one building standing. II. B.
Corey was here, and we stood on the hill
and saw the fire do its work. The Austin
people are all right, except a few of US
are out of office and few out of their
positions. Seattle will build again, and
on grander scale. The banks are
all right, and they have on hand ten
million dollars in deposits. Some think
the fire great calamity but I think it
is blessing in disguise. Many old rook-
cries are now out of the way. and the
lots will be occupied by brick buildings.
TO show you somewhat the extent of
the fire-10O saloons were burned and
500 ladies of easy virtue were rendered
homeless, The saints and sinners all
Jared alike, for the Salvation Army
Barracks was destroyed The people
have the push and the money, and
Seattle will now have the best of booms.
1t was horrible sight to see so much
good property destroyed. I must close
this letter. Corey will tell you all about
it. Respects to all. H. w. ELMs.
