STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Sept. 26.-There was a
show of considerable strength in the
stock market to-day. The principal
VILE and Nashville, and the extreme
advance of So in the latter, and 81 in
the former having considerable sym
pathetic effect on the railroad list gen
orally. There was brisk buying of
Reading nominally based on the sup
position that the end of the coal strike
is near. Manhattan was largely bought
by the speculative interests which have
been accommodating the stock for some
time. There was a notable disposition
to advance on the part of a number of
minor low priced industrials, especially
the railway equipment companies.
During the final hour the profession
al operator whose buying had advanced
prices, took their profits very generally
with the result that final prices for
number of leading stocks are from !
to points lower than the best. Net
gains are very generally indicated tor
the day, nevertheless.
The special ground for the movement
in ST Paul was the publication of a
report that important stock subscrip
lions are to accrue shortly. Louis nile
and Nashville was helped by rhe color
of authority given to report that the
control of the system is to be lodged
with the Atlantic Coast Line. This
would satisfactorily solve the problem
that has much puzzled Wall street ever
since the control of the road Was
snatched from its long time holders as
an incident in a speculative campaign
Money rates continued high to-day, bat
a supply was available and the feeling
was engendered that the banks will
make a strong showing in the state
ment tomorrow. The money in the
market was said to come from the
trust companies and influential bank
officials disclaimed any lending in the
stock market on the part of the hanks.

the demand has shown an improvement
