STOCK EXCHANGE. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright). NEAV YORK, October 5. A fresh outbreak of selling struck the stock market at the last hour today. The greatest excitement prevailed. The tickers were unable to keep up with the deluge of orders, and they were an hour late at one time. Both the Stock Exchange and curb sales were extVemely heavy. The stock exchange sales totalled 5,623,900 shares. During the last five minutes, powerful financial interests, having become alarmed, threw billions of dollars into the fray, thus saving several of the leading stocks, which had been sliding fast, but the time was too short to help much, and most of the issues finished with severe losses.
