AND
COMMERCE


New york. Feb. 2i.-Dealines in
stocks today were scarcely larger
than Yesterday. The thinness Of the
market was MS marked on the selling
side IT'S Oh the buying side and II re-
ouired only a small absorption To
lit prices. The timidity of the bears
Is aggravated ny such a demonstration
as HAT of last week in Reading and
that OF today in the Southern group
Of railroad stocks.
Today's movement lacked nutholita-
tive explanation. A supposition na,ur-
ally arose that some financial project
was working out designed 20 change
the relations between these proper
ties already very close by reason OF
the control of Louisville ana Nashville
held by the Atlantic 0 line II q
mutual control of other properties held
hy l.. and n. and Southern Railway.
IIntil the movement in these stocks
stimulated some vitality in the rest OF
the market Ii was practically liteiess.
An early attempt to dcpresS prices
met with little success and this, as
much ms any definite news of condi-
lions, prompted the later upward
movement. The quieting down OF af-
fairs in Philadelphia was accepted as
good news.
The abstract OF the reports TO the
controller of the currency OF the ma
tional banks of the country Of January
81 showed the loan expansion since
the November 1G report well distribut-
ed, the New York banks being re-
sponsible for less than slS.000,00O OF
the $50, 000.6S0 aggregate Increase
for hat period. The stock market
liquidation effected in that interval
explains this relative showing. In the
yearly comparison however. there -
shown an increase since February last
of s3SS,736,SS7 in the loan accoun OF
the national banks, the cash reserves
having shrunk in the same time, over
