whether the large amount of equipment

REPLOGLE STOCK
BREAKS SHARPLY.
Drops From AZ to 80 in Sale Of
100 Shares Due to Lack Of
Short Interest.

One OF the most startling breaks in
the price of a security which has been
seen on the New York Stock Exchang.
in a long time was that in Repogle Steoi
shares yesterday. when. between noe
and p. NJ, its stock dropped from AZ
to 80 on a single transaction of 100
shares. The stbck had been selling
throughout the morning for 45 to AZ
with very little activity. Suddenly the
Street was startled by the appearance OF
a transaction on the tape at 80. clean
drop Of twelve points from the previous
sale. At first it was believed that an
error had been made by the operator
sending out quotations on the tape, but
investigation quickly developed that a
sale had actually been made at that
figure.
The sale OF Replogle at 80 was made
