BUSINESS NOTES.

There has been the usual first OF the
year sax In the price OF some Of the
local commercial stocks. The decline
nearly always follows the payment Of
the December dividends, and II doubt
less has been accumulated by the feel
ing Of uncertainty In the east over the
war developments. Investors here
watch the eastern money market very
closely and the condition there re-
fleets on the market here, though, Of
course, TO a greatly diminished extent.
The year opens up prosperously with
all dividend payers, and there Is an adj
vance In the rate of several concerns.
The Deseret Savings bank has in
creased its regular dividends from per
cent TO per cent Commercial Ma
tional has advanced its figure TO 6 per
cent. The action OF the Utah sugar
board In paying an extra dividend on
the last Of the year In order 70 make the
regular disbursement TO stock holders
II per cent instead Of 10 per cent, Is
thought to indicate that the regular
quarterly dividend will hereafter be 3
per cent instead OF 2is. Following are
the latest quotations furnished by
Broker Cutler:
