TRADE SETTLES DOWN
Better Than the Average For
the Past Five Years.
BUSINESS OF THE BANKS
CONTINUED DEPRESSION IN
WHEAT AND WOOL MARKETS

There was no change in the local
business situation during the week Just
closed compared with the weeks i'm
mediately preceding. Trade seems TO
have settled down to a steady. hard
pun, and although it is far from being
what was expected, it is far above the
average for the past five years. Fall
ing prices are not popular with mer-
chants, because they mean a loss on
the goods on their shelves, and the re-
adjustment to a lower level is not a
peasant experience.
IL bank elearings represented nothing
Dut actual transactions in business the
conclusion would be forced that the
volume of business this year is far
below that of last year at this time.
because there is "a regular falling off in
the elearingsi but it is well known that
the clearings of last year represented
great deal of speculative business.
especially in mining stocks, that is to-
tally lacking at this time. The clear
lngs yesterday were $267, $3.50, com
pared with s4O0, 1894 for the CORE
spending day of last year. For the
week just closed the clearings were
1855, 6l5.4O, compared with S2.17S, 022 81
for the corresponding week of last
year. This fall in bank clearings is
true Of the entire country as well as
salt Lake and proves that the same
influences at work here are at work
the country over. These influences are
lack OF expansion in trade and steady
fall in prices

BISHOP KEANE TO RISE.

Washington, June 16.-Advices have
reached the papal legation here from

of Bishop keane as archbishop of Du-

would nave been made before this but
for the antagOnism of the German
priests IN that see, who favor the Sc
lection Of Father Carroll, a professor
at the Dubuque seminary, for the va
cancy. 1t is understood that their op-
position to DR.. Keane arises from his
attitude in the Schroeder case when
that professor some months ago was
removed from the Catholic university
in this city.
