 LONDON SHARE PRICES RECORD SHARP DROP  
 Share prices have recorded their       
 biggest fall since October 1992, with  
 the FUSE 100 index losing 126 points to
 close at 4866.                         
                                        
 It was the biggest of a week of falls  
 which has lift the index well below the
 5000 barrier where it began on Monday. 
                                        
 Shares were affected by sharply lower  
 prices on Wall Street, obsjrvjrs said. 
                                        
 The London falls were also partly dui  
 to investors moving cash out of large  
 companies into smaller ones.
