PROF. PALMER RETURNS.
He Spent the Past Week at the ON
tario aud DAILY Mines.

Prof o. A. Palmer, the well known
mining expert, returned to town last
evening after spending the past week
In Park City where he made an ex-
animation OF the Ontario and DAILY
mines. In speaking to the News"
about the former today Mr.. Palmer
says the shaft Is down 10 the LOO level
or 200 feet below the great drain tun-
mel where a station Is now being cut,
With this work done the management
Will crosscut north to the vein, dis
lance of between 200 and 300 feet,
where, after some drifting, II expects
TO again tap the ore chute as 1t de-
sends TO the depths The ore Is strong
on the 1900 level and the general con-
dition of the old bonanza Is said to be
very good.
Mr. Palmer also visited the DAILY,
where encouraging conditions are also
reported. There is nothing TO cause
any excitement but II would not be
surprising If future development should
disclose a good ore body. For a dis
lance Of 200 feet on the l,2OO level the
men have run In a small vein in ore
all the way. The end Of the drift
Is about 800 feet from the west lines of
the DAILY, No upTalsing has been done
TO speak OF but with several hundred
feet Of stopping ground above the 200
level Mr.. Palmer says there Is chance
that the chute may prove to be wider,
II may also widen out before the on
tarlO drain tunnel level IL reached some
500 feet lower. But whatever may re-
suit in the future the developments
thus far are not such as 10 warrant any
excitement.

DIVIDENDS
FOR PAST WEEK
Five Producers Pay Out the Sum
Of $4,000,
DIXIE DEAL Is NOW CLOSED
Was Consummuted Yesterday After
Dooh-prof. Palmer Talks Of the
DAILY aud Ontario.

This was dividend day for several
Utah mining companies. The Silver
King Of Park City sent out It's checks
today in payment Of its magnificent
monthly dividend Of 100000. In add
ton to this. the Swansea OF Tlnto
distributed It's regular monthly Of 5000,
while the Silver Shield and Rocco
Homestake handed out $500 and $4,000
respectively. With the sum Of $4,000
paid yesterday by the Mammoth Of Tin
tic, the total amount paid this week
foots up 10 the sum of sl3l 900, which
viii be increased to $4,000 on the 18th
inst. when the DAILY West Of Park City
distributes It's February dividend OF
N5, 900.
No word has been received regarding
the Ontario dividend, which is expected
about the latter part of the month by
some local shareholders. 1t Is not i'm
probable. however, that the directors
may await developments on the LOO
level Of the old bonanza before ordering
the distribution of any part Of It's big
surplus.

BUSINESS NOTES.

The feature Of the past week In bust
ness circles has been the agitation over
the question Of a reduction in the rate
Of interest paid by the saving banks,
from four per cent to three per cent.
While there is much reluctance appar-
ent among the various institutions to
take the step. and especially TO be the
first to take 1t, there is little doubt that
it will ultimately be decided on, Saw
ings banks, like other banks. are not
entirely philanthroplc institutions, and
IL Is too much to expect that they viii
go on paying four per cent for the i'm
mense sums which they are accumu-
lating, when there are no avenues ex-
listing here through which the money
can be loaned out again at o profit.
In local stocks there has been consid-
cradle activity. though II has been
largely limited to the sugar securities.
Utah sugar has been the feature, and
from so OO0 to s3l 900 has changed hands
at prices ranging from SlL75 to $500;
the last sales were at the former iig-
ure. Large interests have stood ready
TO take in al the stock offered, and
brokers say that there is no more stock
to be had at that price. The recent
storm and the activity with which the
signing Of beet contracts Is going for
ward. will likely have strengthening
effect.
Ogden sugar has changed hands In
large amounts, at prices ranging from
Sl72.50 to $l74 The approach Of the
dividend period for this company, and
the threatened rupture between the
canning factories and the tomato grow
ers. which Will. IL is expected increase
the sugar beet acreage in Weber coun-
ty, are relied on to stll further advance
the price Of this stock.
No announcement has been made as
yet regarding the opening Of the stock
books for the erection Of the new fac
tory In Cache county.
The Deseret National bank paid its
dividend Of three per cent sl5,OO0 on
Tuesday last.
