INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Trustees    
Seligman Pennsylvania Municipal Fund

In planning and  performing  our audit of the  financial  statements of Seligman
Pennsylvania  Municipal Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended  September 30, 1998
(on which we have issued our report dated October 30, 1998),  we considered  its
internal control,  including control activities 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,  and  not to  provide  assurance  on the  Fund's  internal  control.  The
management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining  internal
control.  In  fulfilling  this   responsibility,   estimates  and  judgments  by
management  are  required to assess the expected  benefits and related  costs of
controls.  Generally,  controls  that are  relevant  to an audit  pertain to the
entity's objective of preparing financial  statements for external purposes that
are  fairly   presented  in  conformity  with  generally   accepted   accounting
principles.   Those  controls   include  the   safeguarding  of  assets  against
unauthorized acquisition,  use, or disposition.  Because of inherent limitations
in  internal  control,  errors or fraud may  occur  and not be  detected.  Also,
projection of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to
the risk that it may be become  inadequate  because of changes in  conditions or
that  the  effectiveness  of the  design  and  operation  may  deteriorate.  Our
consideration of the Fund's internal control would not necessarily  disclose all
matters in internal  control 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 one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk that  errors or fraud 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 Fund's  internal  control  and its
operation,  including controls for safeguarding securities,  that we consider to
be material weaknesses as defined above as of September 30, 1998. This report is
intended solely for the information and use of management, the Board of Trustees
of Seligman Pennsylvania Municipal Fund, and the Securities Exchange Commission.
