group stood in round figures at $1I,-
800.000,000. This year added over
$600.000,000 to that sum. Every State
contributed toward that increase, from
the Empire State with a rise in excess
of 1882, 100000 to Delaware with $685.
600. This group and that Of New Eng
land were two, out of the six compris-
ing continental United States, which
improved their position over last year.

the Middle Atlantic group together ac-
counted for 81 per cent of the savings
deposited in banks in the United States

resent merely week end readiustment
of speculative accounts Traders, who
bought stocks for a turn earlier in the
week in the expectation that the long
predicted January rise had begun, threw
those holdings overheard when the
market again lapsed into dizziness, while
bear selling was scattered throughout
the list.

led the upturn Of Thursday, closed
nearly points lower at 169ss. Ameri-

Renewal of selling pressure against
the coppers was based on reports that
trade statistics would disclose another
increase in surplus stocks next week.
