Galveston Reconstruction and Storm Losses

Civil law has been restored in Galveston, and contracts for clearing streets have been awarded. The soldiers will remain in the city until the work of reconstruction is well begun. Governor Sayers has given out the following statement: "The loss of life occasioned by the storm in Galveston and elsewhere on the southern coast can not be less than 12,000 lives, while the loss of property will probably aggregate $20,000,000."
