WEEK'S STOCKS MOVE IN NARROW GROOVE Net Result Not Advantageous to More Prominent Issues in Market \ By Associated Press New York. Jan. 16.—For the Rreater part of the week stocks moved in a narrow groove with a heavy tendency. Later the movement broadened and took in a number of specialties, soma of which recorded substantial gains. Standard shares participated in mod erate degree, but the net result waa not especially advantageous to tha more prominent Issues. New International financing and greater ease of money were among the broader developments. llussia placed a large government credit with our bankers, some gold was received from China in the course of regular mercantile business and a moderate amount of French gold was taken in l.ondon, presumably for shipment to Cuba via this port. All reliable advices indicate a turn for the better in the steel trade, prices of some of the more active staples undergoing an upward price revision. Similar conditions attend the copper Industry, the price of the metal being well above the recent low quotations. Railroad earnings remain uneven, but with signs of aproacliing improvement.
