tories are being rebuilt as rapidly as
is possible but the destruction is so
complete in the manufacturing district
that II will take months to get them
reopened while in some of the smaller
surrounding towns such as Armen-

getting them in operation within long
period of time.
Altogether 1900 large buildings have
been rendered useless in this city

The population, being largely Of
