BANKERS AMAZED
BY SIZE OF LOANS
Stock Exchange Reports To-
tai of SO, 53,174,154 as
Total Borrowings.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. February G.-Loans
held by New York Stock Exchange
brokers' on stocks and bonds at the
end of January totaled S3,l53, la, l54.
the exchange announced today in
making public these figures for the
first time in its history.
The enormous volume of brokers'
borrowings created widespread sur
prise on Wall street, where conserVa-
tive bankers expected the total to
range between 200 900, 900 and So,
600 600 900 in line with the latest UNI
official estimate of 81 500, 900 900, made
early in January. The highest unotfi-
cial estimate on record was $2.S00,-
600 900 at the peak of the bull mar
ket last November.
Assuming that considerable liquida-
ton of loans took place during Jan
uary. the official figures would indi-
cate that the borrowings Of brokers
at the height of the fail boom III the
stock market exceeded $4,000, 900 600.
More than II per cent of the total
loans were represented by call or de-
mand funds. which furnish the
credit for speculation in the stock
market. These amounted to 81 .5l6,
906, 599. and the remainder, 1896, 49,,
555. took the form of time loans,
which are devoted principally to car
rying bonds.

NEW YORK CURB MARKET
Received by Private Wire Direct The Star Office

Gulf Oil interests are known to have
been interested in Carib Syndicate
for some time, and when It was re
ported that the latter company had
received word that the government
of Colombia had Cancelled the Barco
concession the stock broke spec
tacularly.
Expectations. however, that the
matter would be adjusted favorably
for Carib Syndicate caused a sub
stantial rally, block of 1900 shares
opening at II, which represented Il
gain of 2i2 points over night. Weak
ness in Carib had a sympathetic
effect upon the market for American
MaraCaibo.
The rest of the market continued
to move in the manner which has
characterized the trading throughout
the past week.
