DRAW ORDINANCES
FOR LIQUOR TRAFFIC
City's Legal Department Presents
New Measures; Paraphrase Of
State Statutes.

Drafts Of ordinances under which
Salt Lake City intends to prosecute
it's own liquor cases hereafter were
drawn by the city law department yes
terday and submitted to Mayor Samuel
c., Park, who, as commissioner of pub
lie safety, will report them to the com
mission at the Monday night meeting
for action.
The ordinances are but a paraphrase
of the state law. covering no more and
no less ground than that prescribed in
the state statute of 1911. Additional
regulation Of the liquor traffic, which
is said to lie within the province of
the municipal government, may be con-
sidered at the same time the ordi.
nances come up. Mayor Park now has
in his desk an ordinance limiting
saloons to one for each thousand Of
population. With some notifications
this measure may be presented Mon.
day night.
Since the ruling Of the supreme court
recently that incorporated cities have
the authority to proceed Of their own
accord to prosecute violations of the
state liquor law and have the right to
enact ordinances along the same lines
as the state INV the county attorney
has refused TO handle the city's cases
any longer.

COMPROMISE MAY
SOON BE AFFECTED

WASHINGTON, May 17.-There is
prospect of compromise settlement Of
the criminal antitrust suit against the
so-called coaster brake trust and an
agreement by which the alleged com
bination would make changes to meet
the. demand of the government and
law. Nothing definite has yet been
accompll she'd, but it is learned that
progress is being made toward this end,
Representatives of the alleged trust
today discussed the situation with
James Fowler, assistant to the attor-
ney general, and United States Attor
nev O'Brien Of Buffalo. The confer
ences will be continued with Attorney
General McReynolds, Mr.. Fowler and
Mr.. O'Brien until next week, when Il
decision will be reached as TO the suf-
ficiepcy Of the defendants PROPOSE
tions for a settlement.

F||VANC|AL MARKET
REMAINS UNCHANGED
More Money in Local Banks
Than Ever Before in His
tory of Salt Lake.

There IS no change Of great conse~
quence in the financial situation, so
far as Salt Lake City is concerned
There is more money in the banks
than ever before in the history of the
city, but it is well-known fact that
the money is not moving. Just why
there IS not more movement is not
known, except that the real estate
market is dull, despite apparent activ-
ity. Real estate men, however, are
optimistic and say that it will only
be matter of short time until realty
will begin the biggest movement in
the city's history. A well-inf formed
man said yesterday that the amount
Of money held by the banks on ''time
certificates was larger than ever be-
fore. These certificates draw q small
amount Of interest and it is said that
the money which they represent will
be ready for investment just as soon
as the market opens up.
Wool is now beginning to move to-
ward the east and this will mean the
circulation of a large sum of money.
II the wool is sold to eastern manu-
facturers, the proceeds are available
at once, and if it is shipped to the
storage warehouse in Chicago a large
percentage of the value also will be
available
Bank clearings for the week are less
than they were. year ago, but this
is on account of the fact that real
estate activity is not as great as it
was at this time year ago How
ever, there is but little doubt that this
condition will soon be changed
Interest rates in the city are slightly
lower, as the rate has been marked
down IN the East.

AMENDMENT MADE TO
PARCEL POST LAW
NAV Not Mark Insured on
Packages Unless Fee
Is Paid

The fact that numerous mail order
houses advertise that for 5 cents they
will insure parcel post shipments to
arrive at destination safely, is causing
the local postoffice authorities, and in
particular Postmaster Arthur l..
Thomas much trouble. It seems that
the catalogues Of the mail order house
leave the impression that any parcel
post shipment may be insured to reach
it's destination for o cents.
There lies the trouble. Every day
there Is constant stream Of people
who insist that with 5 cents they can
insure their packages. They do not
seem to feel satisfied with being told
that the insurance will cost 10 cents
and act as If they would rather trust
to the mail order catalogue rather than
information from postal clerks.
Another feature Of tho parcel post
system that is causing trouble is the
fact that many many send, ssndsrs Of paTSsl post
neglect to pay the 10 cents insurance.
This ruse worked for several days and
tho packages marked "insuredo were
handled with moro care than the less
fortunate ones Now it is different
The postal department has added the
following amendment TO section 62 Of
the parcel post laws:
"No article of any class bearing the
word insured on the outside enve-
lope or wrapper or on lag or label
attached thereto shall be accepted for
mailing except insured parcel post
mall
Thousands Of parcel post packages
are handled every week by the local
postoffice. Every day packages are
received that have to be delayed in
sending because they are marked Gin
sured,' and the sender must be mott
fled to pay 10 cents or remove the
narks

TRANSFERS
SHOWING ACTIVITY
Healthy Condition of Market
Is Indicated by Steady
Demand.

While there were no exceptionally
large deals in real estate during the
past week, there was an unusual amount
of "dickerine' and few transfers.
which show an extremely healthy con-
dition. The largest purchase recorded
was the transfer of the La SnlIe apart
ment house at 312 Fifth East street,
which was sold to a. j Pendleton, Jr,
by George II. Cummings ct al. The con
sideration was $4,000. The La Sale
is an eight apartment house and Is one
of the most modern in tho city. At
the same time Mr.. Pendleton disposed
of his blacksmith shop property on the
west side of State street, between
Fourth and Fifth South streets, to j.
w. jenkins 6 Sons, The consideration
was in the neighborhood OF $4,000.
This shop has been operated by Mr..
PendletoD for more than twenty wears.
The purchasers have not made any an
nouncement as to what they will do
with the property.
Another deal that was made during
the week, which has particular signifi.
eance, was the purchase by f. NJ. Orem
OF the new internrban railroad com
pany, of twenty ight-od feet of ground
Just west Of the Dooly building . OF
West Second South street. 1t is pre-
sumed that this purchase was made il

MAY LOSE CONTROL
Of NEXT CONGRESS
Many Democrats Oppose
Drastic Tariff Change, Says
Senator Kearns.
AGAINST HASTY ACTION
Stringency in the East Be-
cause of Uncertainty as
to Legislation.
AGAINST HASTY ACTION

Former Senator Thomas Kearns re-
turned Saturday from a business visit
10 New York and other eastern ceuters,
and while away had unusual advan'
tages in feeling the pulse of business
and financial conditions. Sentiment
he states, in financial circles continues
TO be pessimistic and big interests are
awaiting the determine tion of various
f&ctors before encouraging too gener-
ouslv the expansion or credit. There
is plenty OF money in the financial
centers, but it is rot easy to secure.
Principal among the factors creating
business uncertainty is the tariff re.
vision programme now being carried
forward in congress Neither the
country nor the Democratic party as
a whole is entirely in accord with the
policy Of an immediate and drastic re-
vision of the schedules. r gradual re-
vision being preferred, because logical
and far more secure for the business
interests of the nation.
1t Is not easy for business enter
prise 10 adjust its business overnight
10 the tremendous changes that must
Of necessity follow the passage of the
Underwood bills as it now stands.
Senator Kearns said;
1t is the opinion of many promi-
nent Democrats that President
Wilson. by his present tariff poll
ev. will ALLEVIATE many of the Dem
ocrats OF the country as well az
those in congress, to such extent
that in two years from now Meth
er the house nor the senate will
be Democratic. Sentiment in the
east is decidedly against the hasty
and drastic action that is being
forced through the senate. and ev-
eryone would prefer that congress
and the president proceed so as TO
enable the invested canital of the
country to adjust itself scientifi-
cally. instcnd of being compelled
to step abruptly from tariff pro
lection TO the extreme of the I'm

Times are hard east. and they
are going to be harder. Nothing in
the shape Of panic is expected,
but investments are going to be
retarded and progress cannot be
made Mt the rate il should when
one considers the great wealth and
resources OF the United States.
