REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Seligman Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Fund

In planning and  performing  our audit of the  financial  statements of Seligman
Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended September 30, 1995,
we  considered  its  internal  control  structure,   including   procedures  for
safeguarding  securities,  in order to determine our auditing procedures for the
purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with
the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on the internal control
structure.

The management of the Fund is responsible  for  establishing  and maintaining an
internal control  structure.  In fulfilling this  responsibility,  estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs  of  internal  control  structure  policies  and  procedures.  Two  of the
objectives  of an internal  control  structure  are to provide  management  with
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss
from  unauthorized  use or  disposition  and that  transactions  are executed in
accordance with  management's  authorization and recorded properly to permit the
preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles.

Because of inherent  limitations in any internal  control  structure,  errors or
irregularities  nevertheless may occur and not be detected.  Also, projection of
any evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that it
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness
of the design and operation may deteriorate.

Our  consideration  of the  internal  control  structure  would not  necessarily
disclose all matters in the internal  control  structure  that might be material
weaknesses  under standards  established by the American  Institute of Certified
Public  Accountants.  A material  weakness is a condition in which the design or
operation of the specific internal control structure elements does not reduce to
a relatively  low level the risk that errors or  irregularities  in amounts that
would be  material in relation to the  financial  statements  being  audited may
occur and not be  detected  within a timely  period by  employees  in the normal
course of performing  their  assigned  functions.  However,  we noted no matters
involving the internal control structure,  including procedures for safeguarding
securities,  that we consider to be material  weaknesses  as defined above as of
September 30, 1995.

Securities and Exchange Commission.
