ACTIVE LIST FAIRLY STRONG
INCREASE IN LOANS IS BIG

NEW YORK. January 11.-Operations
In stocks again centered in the copper
group today. The cumulative effects of the
disappointing monthly statement of cop
per metal stocks and reports of price
shading were heightened by the sale of
a large amount of the metal at around
IL cents, compared with the official
rate Of la, cents. The copper issues
were the especial object of the bear
attack, and proved vulnerable to pres
sure. with the Amalgamated displaying
most marked weakness.
The general list showed a fair degree
IF strength early in the session. but the
tone gradually weakened under the in
fiuence of the movement in the coppers.
Steel displayed heaviness. and in the
railroad department the coalerS and
Gould stocks weakened. The movement
of the market a whole. however, was
not large and trading was of limited pro-
portions.

Statement Shows Changes.

Large changes We're revealed in the
bank statement. conspicuous among them
being a loan increase of 0.OOO.O00 shown
in the actual table. 1t was said that this
change represented a shifting of loans
from out-of-town banks to city banks on
account of the decline in interest rates to
a point too low to be attractive to the
out-of-town institutions. Half of this
shifting of loans. ii is estimated. occurred
within the last two days. as was indi-
Gated by the fact that i'm the average
table the loan increase reported was only
$29.oUo. The expected large gain in cash
was made. the amount exceeding S21 Co.,,
90. The increase in loans and the cash
gain We're reflected in the expansion of
$S+.OOO.OCO in deposits.
The mercantile agencies reported that
business in nearly all departments con-
tinued very satisfactory, and that there
was more life in trade.
