IRON AND STEEL.

The iron and steel trade, embracing
machinery, implements, hardware, and
other manufactures Of iron and steel,
has always been one of the leading
branches of commerce in Seattle. In a
new country, where the staple product
was timber, and where the prmeval for
est had to be slowly and laboriously
cleared away, there was naturally II
brisk demand from the outset for wood
working machinery and tools, from the
axe to the complete sawmill plant; and
woodworking machinery and tools, with
bar iron, for use in the blacksmiths'
FORCES, cutlery, firearms, etc, formed
the bulk of the early shipments OF iron
and steel to Seattle. With the greater
deyelopement of the vast timber re-
sources of the state came proportion
ately greater demand for sawmill,
shingle mill, planning mill and logging
equipments, tools, etc, etc. When 1t is
known that the cut for the state Of
Washington for the year 1898 was eleven
hundred and sixty-four million feet and
the single output eighteen hundred
and eighty-three million, the two to-
gether representing a value OF fourteen
millions OF dollars, the Importance of
Seattle's trade in the single item of
woodworking machinery may lie real
lied Gradually as the country was
more and more settled up the demand

seattle is the shipping point ior the

above figures show hcvond question i
production far i'll excess OF any other
county, and in value nearly half the
total OF the state. Seattle unque>tion-
ably ships more coal than any other port

1t is more than likely that the pro-
durtion ior 1884 will show an increase
over any previous year. This Is III
view oi better prospects for the opera
ton Of the principal mines and al thc
lair to become important competitors.
Prospects are also favorable Tor the
early development Of other valuable
properties near Seattle.

GROCERIES,.

Few branches of commerce bear
so strikinga testimony to the advance
in the retinements of civilization as
the grocery trade. Articles are nee
essaries today, in the poorest OF
houses, which II few years ago were
looked upon as luxurIes whose use
the rich only could afford. Nor is
this the only step forward. The
modern customer demands that not
only the articles he purchases shall
he good, but that they shall he pre-
scented in the most attractive form
possible. Never has so much inge-
nuity and artistic taste been eXerted
to cover even the cheapest lines OF
groceries as at present. The modern
grocer who wishes to keep up with
the procession appeals almost as
much to the eve as the palate. Nat
urally, this has resulted in the incre:
mig elegance of his store and the beau
tying of its surroundings, until today
high class grocery store forms rs
tractive coup d ell a. taste and mon
can effect, and the old fashioned din
grocery, with its miscellaneous luml
of articles, has vanished almost entir,
from the scene. Forward, is the G.
and none realize it more than the 9
GERS of Seattle. Besides about one hu
dred and thirty-five retail grocery stor
some OF which would do credit to a
Eastern city, Seattle has nine who
sale establishments, some OF which dc
very extensive business, having an
tablished trade over Washington, d
gon, Idaho, Montana and Alaska. TIL,
are also five exclusively wholesale can
manufacturing firms and two wholes'
cracker bakeries.

INSURANCE.

No business community is more alive
to the advantages of insurance than
Seattle. The great fire of 1899, with a
loss estimated at fifteen millions of dol
lars, was an experience that taught many
the advantages of insurance against loss
by fire; and it does not require warning
captions like "Are you insured?" on the
tops Of invoices to arouse them to the
necessity of this important safeguard.
1t is most unusual to find a merchant
uninsured in this city. From the small
est fruit shop to the most extensive fac
tory, the protection of insurance is always
present. Ii is true that the amount is
not always adequate; but, as whole,
Seattle's merchants carry full lines OF
insurance; and the insurance companies
represented do a profitable business in
this city.

DRY GOODS.

The history of the dry goods trade IN
America i practically the history 81 the
country. In the early days when the
adventurous trader set out into the wlld>
with his sled or pack "f goods to trade
Tor iur- the larger proportion "i his stock
Wa> dry goods From the moment when
became into contact with civilization,
/ the first object "i admiration that caught
/ leo or haring blanket that only the loom
can prndurc. The bills oi lading and
/ invoices oi the early days were filled with
products of the loom, brought out, SOM"
/ for trade with Indians, others for the
white inhaLitans of the new country.
/ Dry foods. in one form or another, i
/ the staple in trade from the eastern
states, and is a large factor in the total
| OF >rattle's trade
| As it l. with the dry goods trade, 50 il
is with its more artificial handmaidcn,
the millinery trade. The dry-gnods man
deals largely in necessities, The millin-
cry man deals in articles which only the
cxigencicS of fashion can bring under
that heading Vet, he pro>pcrS, Tor ever
since Eve first made her tunic OF leaves
and dccked herself with wild flowers and
berries, woman has always sought toen-
nance her beauty 10y artificial means.
The squaw who inveiglrs her duskv lord
into purchasing her Il string oi beads or
Il gaudy prtticoat, and the pretty girl
who whee,lIrs her father or husband out
OF a check ior her spring bonnet or dainty
costume, stand on precisely the same
footing. Both are daughters OF Mother
Eve, and both do good for trade 10y put
ting the money OF their victims into
circulation.
The third great branch Of the dry
goods trade. that of men Is clothln.
and furnishings, is equally important
with those we have mentioned.
There are five wholesale dry goods
houses now doing business i'll Seattle,
and more than seventy retail houses
engaged in the various brances oi the
trade. One Wholesale house devotes
itself exclusively to woolens, and has
a large trade extending over Washing Y
ton, Oregon and Idaho. Seattle has 4,
Il large wooden mill at presentemploy-
ing about one hundred hands, which
has an annual output OF tlannels,
cassimeres and blankets valued ut
100000. vi

mcnt oi fuundricS and metal working
plants the demand for the cruder forms
OF iron, i"r manufacture into the fin
ishcd product here, has set in.
Another index to the Importance of
the iron and steel trade OF the city is i'll
the number of firms engaged in it and the
amount of capital represented by them.
seattle has about one hundred and
twenty firms engaged in the various
branches of the iron and steel trade,
some OF which do business on a very ex-
tcnsive scale, having trade throughout
Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana,
and Alaska 1t has four wholesale hard
ware houses, six dealers in heavy ma
chinery, three foundries, six iron works,
twelve machine shops, one tin can fac
tory, three SAW works, two wire works,

their families, form Il prosperous client
ele that absorhs millions OF new insur
ance every year. There are sixteen Of
the leading life insurance companies of
America represented in Seattle, fourteen
of which have general offices here,
The lines of miscellaneous insurance,
including accident, guarantee, plate glass,
boiler, employers liability, burglary,
common carriers, etc, are also prosper
Gus in Seattle The accidents inseparable
from an industrial centre, whether from

Of employees, require to he guarded
