Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK.
Associated Press Financial Writer,


NEW YORK, Nov. 1O.-Although
scattered strong spots were present
IN todays stock market, post-election
rallylng power faded from MANY
leaders under comparatively heavy
profit taking.
Wall Streets elation over Tues
days ballot box results was still a
supporting influence, but many
traders scampered to neutral terri
tory on the theory yesterdays broad
upsWing to the highest levels in
more than year called for some
intermediate correction even if
the advance is to be resumed later.
In addition, another holiday tomor-
roW-Armistice Day-when the ex-
change will be closed, induced some
Tightening of commitments.
Early extensive offerings put the
ticker tape behind during almost
the first hour, when $4,000 shares
changed hands. The decline was
stemmed shortly thereafter and
losses running to a point or so were
reduced or transformed into gains
OF as much. There was another set
back later, but without any upturn
IN volume. Losses running to a
point or more predominated at the
hnlsh. Transfers were around
100000 shares.
A few rails, steelS. farm imple-
mentS and specialties were success
ful in contesting the reversal. Mo-
tors: coppers, aircrafts and rubbers
lacked stamina.
with the exception of North
American, utilities held rather well

Store Sales Remain
1.6 Per Cent Under
1887 in October
Mild Weather Blamed
For Slight Decrease
Shown in Capital
BY EDWARD C. STONE.

Retail trade in Washington de-
partment stores in October was only
1.8 per cent under the dollar VOL
ume for October, 1887, the Federal
Reserve Bank of Richmond reported
this noon, the unseasonably mild
weather being given as the cause of
the decrease. This slight drop COM
pared with slump of per cent
in the whole fifth district in So de-
partment stores and a decrease of
10 per cent in October in 572 stores
IN the United States.
In the first 10 months of this
year trade in the Capital was down
but % per cent from the like 1887
period, compared with 03 per cent
gain last year over the previous
year. Trade in the fifth district
was off 5 per cent and 10 per cent

Bank Board Lauds Mr.. White.
President o. H. P. johnson read
q most unusual letter to the board
of directors of the National Metro
polltan Bank yesterday, on the
death of George w. White, which
came from the board of directors
of the Market Street National
Bank, Philadelphia,
The letter contained a resolution
stating that the board had heard
with regret of the death of Mr..
White, who was president of the
National Metropolitan Bank for so
many years, and in further reso-
luton expressed sympathy to the
officers and directors over the pass
ing of Mr.. White, whose high
character and outstanding ability
reflected credit on the National
Metropolitan Bank and on the
banking profession"
While individual officers in banks
in one city often express personal
regrets on the death of banker
in another city. it is extremely rare
that a board of directors takes such
official action as noted in this in
stance.
