Building Outlook.

There was no change in the building
/ outlook during the week, but as the
season progresses the fact becomes
each day more apparent that the build
ing done in Salt Lake during 1900 will
fall far below the anticipations of last
season and of tile early spring. The
high prices demanded for all kinds of
building material early in the season
nipped many of the building enter
prises in the bud. enterprises that were
counted on as reasonably certain last
fall. Among these were a number of
large warehouses on the railroad
tracks. Since the prices of building
material have begun to fall, prospective
builders have concluded to wait and
this waiting game promises now to con-
tinue to the end of the season.
The Knockout of the union depot pro-
position and the representation of con-
gress with regard to the appropriation
for the federal building is having a de-
pressing effect on the real estate mar
ket and it lacks the buoyancy that it
had two months ago. But in spite of
all this there are a goodly number of
sales of small magnitude going
through. These are mainly of building
lots and moderate priced homes indicat-
ing a steady increase in the population
Of the city and an mistaken confidence
in her future as place of residence.
The building permits issued last week
by Inspector Timer aggregate only
$1,000 in estimated expenditures, as fol-
lows:

Strong Contrast With COndi-
lions a Year Ago.
IS LACK OF BUOYANCY
PRICES ARE SLOWLY AND SURE
LY COMING DOWN.
Bank Clearings Show a Heavy In
creass Over the Corresponding
Week of Last Year-No Change IN
the Building outlook-Few Sales
in Local Stocks.

There is general disappointment in
the conditions of local trade and this
feeling grows with each passing week.
There is d dullness and lack of buoy
ancy that makes very strong con-
trast with the conditions of a year ago.
Then there was a general expansion in
all lines and prices were soaring con-
tinually higher. Now there is a ten
dency everywhere to pull in" and
prices are slowly but surely coming
down. The continued fall in prices and
the assurance that they viii continue
to fall until a more reasonable level is
reached is the main cause assigned for
the present sIusgishness in local trade.
This idea is well expressed in the
words of a representative of one of the
large eastern mercantile houses who
visited Salt Lake during the week
4 am actually ashamed to go to a
certain town, he said. because I know
that the merchants have not sold half
of the goods that / induced them to
buy last year with the argument that
prices would certainly be Is or 20 per
IGlAN higher ttllS ear 4Ilsin last III
stead OF this prices are going down and
those men viii be forced to lose money
on the stuff they bought"
The slump in the prices Of staples
such as iron and steel, wool, cotton,
leather tin and lead has had the effect
of bringing all other prices down with
them and causing a general unsettling
of the markets Of the entire country.
The outlook for the immediate future is
not of the best.
Withdrawal of Capital.
The failure of Price, Mccormick &
Co. in New York appears to have had
no effect at all on the Salt LakS mar
ket, but it has had a disquieting effect
on the minds Of business men every
where. 1t will have a depressing effect
on speculative business here as else
where. This heavy failure was plainly
due to speculation and should have no
influence whatever on legitimate bust
ness, but it win have the effect of caus-
ing capital to withdraw from many
worthy and safe enterprises.
Judged by the bank clearings the vol
ume Of business in this city during
the week should be satisfactory. They
show a gain of 80 per cent over the cor
responding week of last year and keep
Salt Lake well up among the cities OF
the entire country. The clearings yes
terday were S304. 1892. compared with
$272, 1899 for the corresponding day Of
last year and for the week they were
81, Csc, 001.3S, compared with $1,972,1S618
for the corresponding week of last
year.
Local stocks had another fiat and IN

of any consequence and prices were at
