INDICATE RECORD
BREAKING YEAR
Reports to R. 6. Dun & Co.
Show Favorable Outlook
for All Lines of Trade.

Business is dull. Of course it's dull
What do YOU expect at this time of the
year, This Is the right time for busi-
ness to be Outright after the holidays
II would not be natural If it were not
dull
This is the way in which the local bust
ness situation was epitOmized by George
Rust, local manager for the r G. Dun *
Co. yesterday.
There is nothing to cause the blues in
the business situation. On the contrary
there Is every reason to face the situa-
ton at the opening of the year with con-
fideIce- The holiday trade was enormous
the largest this city has ever had. and ]
lock for heavy business throughout the
year. If We could just have 2 bulge in
the prices of metals nothing in this world
could head Us off.
of course there is nothing going on now
locally except clearance sales and stock
taking. Money i tight here-it is tight
all over the country, except in New
York. 1t Is easy enough there and l pre-
dict 1t will be easy enough here in a short
time Collections are fair, only fair, but
business Is down TO solid basis and there
is no uneasiness over outstanding &C
counts.
One thing that makes it certain that
this year will be good one especially in
1Obblng lines Is that merchants and job
bers too have let their stocks run down
TO the limit Now they will be compelled
to put in big orders to meet dema nds
made upon them and that will make nee
essary the movement of large quantities
Of merchandise, it viii make lively times.
All the reports we get from all parts
of our territory indicate a record break
ing year in 1893. Should there be an up
ward turn in the price Of metals the vol
ume OF inteTmOuntain business will go

DIRECTORS ARE NAMED
FOR COMMERCIAL CLUB

Yesterdays election Of members to the
board OF governors Of the Salt Lake Com
mercial club was a very quiet affair
There was only one ticket in the field
the one submitted by the nominating COM
mittee and this ticket was elected with
out dissenting vote. The election was
complimentary to the members elected
and the result was testimony of the ap-
prevail Of the clubs membership Of the
work done during the last year. The ticket
voted yesterday was as follows.
Members to serve three years: Cover
nor William Spry. William J. Halloran,
Joseph E. Game, Samuel Weitz, H r.
Clark.
Member to serve two years: II. L. A.
Culmer.
This week the board of governors will
get together to elect officers and there
seems to be no doubt in the minds of any
OF the club members that the present Off
GERS will be reelected. That w j. Halo
ran will be chosen for the third term as
president is given out as a certainty by
those who should know.
The clubs membership now numbers
over 100 and il is the plan OF the mem
bership committee to increase the number
during the coming twelve months to at
least I 600.

Mr.. kelsey's plans at an early date.
This is the way Mr. Kelsey outlines
his plans for a better Main street:
At each intersection on Main street
from South Temple to Fourth South

one on each corner. My plan s to have
two circuits for the lights two lights

the steps on her head. until her hearing
and general health was injured by re-
peated ili-treatment- There was even an
insinuation in her complaint that on one
occasion he tried TO poison her.

these charges calmly and came back
with a red hot answer charging that Mrs.
Mathews had another husband when she
married him. concerning whose existence
she had discreetly kept silence. He gave
the name Of this husband as Louis

rage be annulled.
