OF the Seattle holocaust it is said that
an accurate record Of the losses would in
clude every business man of prominence
in the town. It is a dreadful calamity
from which few have escaped. There
were many whose first thoughts were to
save their individual possessions and the
streets were soon crowded and in many
places blocked with teams loaded with
valuables Of every description seeking
places Of safety on the hills.
The burnt region covers 81 blocks Of the
solid and substantial property Of Seattle.
The entire water front was built mostly Of
wood upon piles which had been driven
into mud flats. It had been predicted by
insurance men that the city would some
time be swept by fire, and only the wind
from the th-northwest, which kept up
steady blowing, saved that portion Of
the city north Of Union street.
Superintendent Couch of the Boston
and Montana Smelling company, accom-
panied by his two little sons, arrived from
Butte yesterday. On account Of the
storm, he concluded to remain ut the
Park till this morning, when lie will
drive up to his Sun river possessions te
note the progress made by the workmer
on the mansion and other Improvements
Mr.. Couch is not less enamored of Grea
Falls than when he first gazed upon hel
bpallties

With fifteen thousand dead In the
midst of the desolations of Johnstown In
the east and ten thousand homeless peo-
pie through the destruction Of Seattle by
fire on the Pacific, it is truly day Of
sorrow and lamentation.
1t is estimated that there are today co.
600 poor and desolate people Ii the Cone
maugh valley, without even ! change Of
clothing or its value in the world. The
cries for help come up 70 US on every
breeze. Added to destitutton and desc
lation there is the dreasiful pestilence.
The pneumonia scourge grows alarming,
Notwithstanding the statements Of DR..
Croft of the state health board. DR..
Sweet, member Of DR.. Groh's staff, came
down from Cambria hospital Aatnightwith
a startling report to ii Associated Press
correspondent. Dr.. Sweet Said: .Pros-
pect Hills full Of pneumonia with some
diphtheria and messels. The hospital is
full to overf1owing with forty-two cases
on the outside, They were almost all
severe pneumonia. There is every con-
dition needed for the spread of the dis
ease and l fear an epidemic" DR.. D.
Darlington also reported several cases of
pneumonia, having found them On the
hill near Morrellville.

men were at work yesterday clearing

humping itself to celebrate the consider

amusing. A young American who was
a year ago an humble page in the senate
rakes through his ancestry with fine

wed South Sea Island princess, whose
mother wore ring throu yh her nose and
whose grandfather was an epicure in the
matter of boiled missionary.

OUR SAN FRANCISCO LETTER
Per =. :. Mariposa, san Francisco,
March o, 1889.
From our Special Correspon entJ
The Inaugural Address.


The Inaugural Address
General Harrison made no espe-
ciaI reference to the Hawaiian Isl
ands in his inaugural, but he refer
red generally to American interests
IN the Pacific. He declares IN IN
rnistakable terms that American
privileges and American agreements
in Samoa viii be maintained, and
that I'VE viii respect the just rights
Of the citizens IF other nations and
exact a like treatment for our own p
This is fair and timely warning to
Germany that there viii be no hesi-
tation or backdown on the part Of
this country in the dispute that has
arisen. President Harrison undOubt-
eddy speaks the sentiments Of the
vast majority of American citizens
on this question, and he viii be
backed up in his policy by the whole
force of the nation.
On Panama his declarations are
not less decided. He announces tire
Monroe doctrine in plain language,
and lays down the principle that
this country will expect the Euro
pean governments to preserve the
same principle of nOn-interference in
the affairs Of this continent that
America practises toward Europe.
The following extracts are Of most
interest to Hawaiians
1.-THE NATURALIZATION LAWS
Should be so amended as to make
inquiry into character and good dis
position Of persons applying for cltl-
zenship more careful and searching.
Our existing laws have been in their
administration unimpressive and
often unintelIigible in form. We
accept a man as a citizen without
any knowledge Of his fitness, and he
assumes the duties of a citizen with
out any knowledge as to what they
are. The privileges of American
citizenship are so great and its du-
ties so grave that we may well insist
upon a good knowledge of every per
son applying for citizenship and
good knowledge by him of our insti-
buttons. We should not cease to be
hOspitable to immigration, but we
should cease to be careless as to the
character of it. There are men of
all races, even the best, whose com
ing is necessarily a burden upon our
public revenues or threat to social
order These should be identified
and excluded
