RUSSIA'S
 BLUNDER
Responsible for Bad Break in the Stock Market
 Some Heavy Blocks Were Thrown on the Market.

New York, Oct 27.-The acute crisis in the relations between Great Britain and Russia was responsible for a bad break in the prices of stocks to-day. Very heavy blocks were thrown upon the market of all the prominent issues, the opening transactions running from 1000 to 1000 shares, the latter ill Rock Island. The weakness extended to the whole market but the leading internationally listed stocks were most conspicuous owing to the added press ure of selling for foreign accounts. Few of the prominent stocks escaped an opening loss of point. and in some cases the decline extended to 2 or over. Pressed Steel Gar was forced down Az with the added weight of disappointment over the passing of the dividend. Long strings Of 1000 share blocks and upwards were dealt in in many stocks after the opening and the opening losses were considera, bly, extended. The market showed considerable disorder and excitement.
 Banking houses with continental connections were in frequent com.' rnunication with their correspondents. Beyond the practically unanimous opinion that the gravity of the situ~ ation had increased no definite news was obtainable. A member of bank ing house which has at times repre- scented the French government here said
 we have no Knowledge that France has offered to mediate in the troubles between England and Russia, but we think it very probable France is seri- Cusly concerned in the situation ana she is for peace. All her efforts we are assured will be bent in that direc- tion.,
 London sold heavily in this market. embedding fully 50,000 shares in the first half hour, according to reports.
