STOCK EXCHANGE PANIC
FRANTIC SELLING IN NEW YORK. I By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. New York, Oct. 4.

Both stock exchange and curb sales were extremely heavy, the stocks sales totalling 6,623,600 shares. - In the last five minutes powerful financial interests, alarmed, threw billions of dollars into the fray, saving several leading stocks which had been sliding fast, but the time was too short to help most and most issues finished with severe losses.
