NEW YORK, Nov. 19. The forces of re action again controlled the stock market today. Recurrent liquidation in large volume caused iurther severe depreciation of quoted values, speculative shares show ing losses of 5 to 33 points. Little In the day's developments offered hope or comfort to the bull element, apart from the local federal reserve bank's de cision to ma.ke no change in rates of re discount. Call loans were "pegged" at 12 per cent till the last half hour, when they dropped to 10. With this indication of money ease came the first material rally of the ses sion, a few stocks showing marked strength, while others made variable re coveries. Exchange on London and continental Europe continued to break with the ap proach of a vote on the peace treaty. Conservative interests at this and other financial centers aVe evidently In accord In the belief that recovery from the pres ent upheaval is likely to be of slow growth. American Tobacco was weakest of to- day s issues, losing 20 points. Recessions of 3 to 13 points in motors and their sub sidiaries, oils, steels, equipments and shippings and 5 to 10 points in unclassi fied specialties measured the extent of the extreme decline elsewhere. Sales amount ed to 1.70l.o0( shares. Total bond sales, par value, aggregated $17,650,000. Old United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Last Sales. High. Low. Sale.
