Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November All of
the price average tables today indicate
that the stock market has broken well
below the range Of october % and is
In q region where, speculatively, it
will have to meet further severe tests.
From the high average level early in
October prices dropped an average Of
nearly 40 points to the closing OF the
month. The public utilities are still
slightly above their average figure OF
10 days ago.
The effect Of this is to produce more
liquidation by tired holders Of stocks,
who want cash rather than securities.
It also encourages more short-selling.
A majority of brokers letters today en-
phasized the probability of lower prices
prior to election, with comment reserved
concerning the outlook beyond that
date, as this depends somewhat on how
the country will receive the election re-
suits
