Mir. and Mrs. I. W. Young, formerly of Skagway now residing in San Fran cisco, escaped the fire and are safe. lp writing of the fire to Mrs, CIV. Zinkan, of this city, Mrs. Young says:
 "We are well and cheerful. The shock of Wednesday morning came about 9 o'clock, and lasted maybe one minute or more or less; the condition of our mentality would not allow of our measuring time.
 "The fire which followed was tte horrible feature, and the time since the shock has been one of waiting for the fire to reach us or be controlled. It did not reach us by many blocks but for s time we had our small things packed ready to move with the vast numbers that passed our home,
 we have our home, and somewhere our credit is good; but here in San Francisco there is nothing to purchase if we had the silver dollar with which to procure it.
 "What our plans will be, it is early to say; we may go to Seattle, we may remain here,
 Food is plentiful and there is no suffering in our district"
