The large stocks on the remaining three floors and in the basement suffered a heavy water damage, but were not reached by the fire. As soon as adjustment of insurance has been completed, business will be resumed. We desire at this time to heartily and sincerely tender our thanks to the Seattle Fire and Police departments for efficient service rendered. We wish also to thank the thou- sands of friends for their kindly expressions of sympathy. To the Grote-Rankin Company and the Woodhouse & Platt Furniture Company we are deeply grateful for their generous and unselfish offers of assistance and the proffer of the facilities of their splendid organizations. For the convenience of customers having accounts, the office will be open for business daily, beginning Thursday morning, May 14, at 10 o'clock. Pending adjustment of insurance, no goods can or will be sold.
