Ne have NOW arrived al a time WHORE

We have now arrived at a time where
comparison of the business
of the current period of this
year with that of last does not reflect
upon the latter 50 unfavorably, or give
rise to the thought that it has assumed
other than very ordinary proportions.
Since the month of June every COM
parison made has been against a period
of such great depression that although
much less than in the corresponding
period Of 1892 marked increase over
lase year could easily be shown To-
wards the latter part of 1898 there was
a tendency TO partial revival. or rather
settlement of conditions and compari-
sons from this on will probably not in
dictate such a heavy increase as in the
preceding months of the latter half of
the year.
During November trade has sustained
itself to correspond in a measure with
the increase experienced in the five pre-
ceding months. The volume of the
city's jobbing business is estimated to
range 10 to Is per cent over November,
1898, although che feature that equalizes
the increase is a tendency on the part
Of jobbers TO sell on closer terms and
shorter time-profitS are thus reduced
to a point formerly reached with less
volume of business, but a saving is
effected in the amount of capital neces-
sary to handle the business and a de-
crease in credit losses results. County
collections have not been as good dur
ing the month as was anticipated, al
though ii is expected that during ;De-
cember more notable improv
will come, as produce shipments have
been made freely of late.
Trade in groceries has been ac-
CELEBRATED by continued favorable
weather. as dealers located at distant
points have bought early in order to
take advantage of the opportunity for
easy teaning.

seems To prevail in financial circles
there are fewer tax delinquents than at
the close of November, 1893, while
clearings show an increase of about 40
per cent for the month.

SWITCHBOARD ARRIVED.
With the Connections, it Required
Two Box Cars.

Two box cars containing the new
switchboard for the Rocky Mountain
Bell Telephone company and all con-
nections reached this city yesterday
and were unloaded during the after
noon. Experts are now on their way
from the factory to Salt Lake, and
upon their arrival here the board is to
be placed in the new exchange build
ing on State street, which is practically
completed and one of the handsomest
structures in the city.
This switchboard is a duplicate of
that exhibited at the Worlds fair, and
is wired for 5000 instruments. It's first
cost was very heavy. The company
has now placed four of the six over
head cables along First South and is
engaged in stringing the fifth, which
will reach from the intersection Of
State and First South West 20 West
Temple street. AS soon as this work
is completed, the undergrounding of
the approaches is to commence, SO that
by the time the board is placed every
thing will be in readiness for the con-

tenn will enter the conduit at the inter-
section of State and First South streets,

NO FLOOD OFF MONEY CAME.
Eastern Capital Plentiful, But Still
Extremely Cautious.

With the passage of the election fe-
YER it was anticipated that a great
flood of eastern money would, figur-
atively speaking, inundate this city
and territory and cause the rate of in
terest to drop even below its
present quotations. But such has
not been the case and loans
are just as hard to negotiate as
ever. OF course, there is plenty of
outside money held in this city for in
vestment, but the owners are so ex-
tremely cautious that they will not
loosen up unless the property offered as
security has first been examined by
several experts and pronounced first
class, gilt-edged, in fact, close in and
improved. The rates Of interest re-
main about the same, ranging from 6
per cent to 10 per cent.
During the past week some extensive
loan negotiations have been on, but

II. n. Jones & Co. viii Move.

With the coming of the new year
some important changes will be made
in the location of number of the city's
most prominent institutions. Among
them will be the banking house of t.
r. Jones & Co. and the Germania
Smelling company. These companies
will, after the first of the year, occupy
the old Mccormick bank building, on
the west side of Main between First
and Second South. The building has
splendid vault, and it is in every way
adapted for a banking institution.
The Union assay office will remove
shortly after the first to the offices now
occupied by Selectman Bamberger on
the west side of West Temple street,
between First and Second South.

nearly every day, with the best doctors
here and east, until finally they said they
could not help me, and gave me up to
die.
Then was when a kind Providence
first directed me to Doctor Shores, after
all the other doctors had given me up to
die and my friends believed there was no
hope for my ever recovering. [ can't find
words to tell all Doctor Shores has done
for me and the gratitude L feel toward
him. In every way he seemed everything
that was different from all the other
doctors 1 had seen. Doctor Shores was
kind, sympathetic and serious in his
efforts to help me. Why, 1 received more
benefit from his treatment in the first
few days-for I improved from the first
than from all the others together. [

day that we are blessed with this grand
doctor in our midst. My daughter had

Base Discrimination.

We notice in the columns of morn
ing paper that a public official of Salt
Lake county is using the power of his
high office to advertise certain real es-
tate interests of Salt Lake, under the
name and style of Delinquent taxes"
A careful examination of these adver-
tisements has resulted in a failure to
find therein the name of popperton
place 1t is thus that the heel of power
is always grinding on the neck of the
weak. Anyway, we don't care. It's d
pretty good advertisement for us not
to have him mention us at all; and if it
is any consolation to him, he can leave
it oft right along.

The projectors of the natural gas en-
terprise have decided that the exea-
waiting for the pipe line trench should
wait until the pipe is upon the ground.
1t is anticipated that the first delivery
will be made within the next ten days,
and by that time everything will be in
proper shape for the commencement of
actual operations. The gentlemen who
are backing the project realize that the
work must be thorough and rapidly
prosecuted in order that they may have
the gas on Main street within the
ninety days specified in the contract.

STAMP ALBUM SEIZURE.

Solicitor Reeves Opinion TO Be Passed
Upon by the Attorney General
Acting Secretary Hamlin, of the Treasury
Department, permitted TIMES reporter TO
see the opinion OF Solicitor Reeve in the mat
ter OF the stamp album seizure. with the dis
tinct statement that the opinion was not as
yet final, but that it would go to the Attorney
General for his approval or disapproval
The opinion was substantially as exc lu-
siyely given in yesterdays TIMES. And 1t
goes to the Attorney General in order that it
may be as final and authoritative as posi-
bic.
Chief Hazen, of the Secret Service, says
that both the New York and ST. Louis firms
have already surrendered voluntarily their
plates, ones of the st. Louis firms hav-
ing more than ton in weight of them. He
also said that those firms issuing catalogues
having prints OF American coins did not even
ask the return Of the catalogues, SO plain was
the law on that point.
When Chief HaZen's attention was called
TO The TIMES statement as to foreign maga-
zines entering this country containing cuts OF
United States stamps, he stated that that mat
ter was now receiving the attention of the
State Department. and showed the reporter
the copies OF letters from Ambassador Bay
ard 20 Lord Kimberly, and the latter's re ply.
in which correspondence Mr.. Bayard called
the attention of Lord Kimberly to the fact
that the London journal mentioned in yes
terday's TIMES had published such good i'm
itation of the Columbian stamps that they had
been passed as genuine in America. On No
Vember % last Lord Kimberly assured Am
bassador Bayard that legal steps had been
taken to stop the publication OF any such
matter in the future.
