BUSINESS IS INCREASING

Satisfactory conditions prevailed in
the local financial world during the
past week, according to the reports of
bankers and business men. The bank
ing houses nearly all have unusually
large reserves and plenty Of money has
been in evidence to meet all demands.
Interest rates have remained unchanged.
1t is tho general report that conditions
in Salt Lake and adjacent territory
are certainly as good If not much bet
ter than IN many other portions of the
country.
The clearing house figures for the
week reached 81 ,657 OF 50, showing an
increase of 1852 1882 over the figures
of the preceding week, and an increase
Of nearly two million dollars over the
ciearlngs of the corresponding week in

While there is no great activity
shown at present, the general outlook is
