LIVELY WEEK IN
TRADE CIRCLES
Heavy Shopping Reported in
Spite of UnfaVOrabIe
Weather.

Salt Lake has had an excellent week
commercially in spite of the unfavorable
weather Of the past few days.
Yesterdays shopping trade was very
heavy and merchants said last night that
the week averaged up the best Of the
spring. The cold and rain of Thursday
and Friday caused contractors some de-
lay and eased off the strain the real es-
'ste men have been under for a month or
more. Bank clearings have been better
than for two weeks previous and there
is a good demand for money.
The opening of the Aspen tunnel on
the Union Pacific released a big cOnSlgn-
ment of freight for local merchants that
had been hung up from week TO ten

Ceived orders long overdue. AS conSe-
quence the shoe trade has picked up Won
derfully the last few days, especially in
oXfords as these shoes were the ones al
fected by the freight tie-up. Wholesalers
and jobbers prOfited by the opening of
the road even more than the retail men.

ers look for a Stacking up in orders II

very high and plaids, checks and stripes

moving satisfactorily in the city. Tan
shoes are becoming very popular with
both women and men, and local dealers
are re-ordering in this class of shoes for
the summer and fall. The hardware men
are experiencing a big demand for auto
mobile supplies and garden tools. The
general hardware trade is exceedingly aC-
tive and some big orders are going out

States May Result in Passage Of
Law Making II an offense.

Washington. Jan. S1.--If President
Roosevelt can bring such a taing about
congress will pass a law which will
prevent the discrimination against the
uniform Of the army or the navy. Sev-
eral cases involving this question are
pending in the state courts, but the
more recent case OF the refusal OF d
skating rink proprietor at Plattsburg,
N. Y., 10 admit two soldiers in uniform
which was sustained by Judge Everest
of the city court, has given an impetus
to the movement set on foot by the
president some time ago to insist that
the uniform shall be recognized In all
public places. An interesting phase of
the PIattsburg case developed today
when 1t became known that Judge Ev-
crest recently wrote the president stat
ing the grounds on which ne based his
decision, maintaining In the effect that
the case was not one within meaning
of a bill OF rights affecting the ques-
tion Of race, creed or color He frank
ly expressed the opinion. however. that
the matter should be taken up by con-
gress and a bill passed making 1t am
offense to discriminate against the uni
form Of army or navy,
