STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, August 19.-There was
more shares of stocks sold on the eX-
change today than yesterday dealings
rising again over the half million share
mark. The market took on fair appear
ance of average strength, but an analysis
will show that the gains in the majority
of usually active stocks are fractional,
while the really striking gains are con-
fined to few spots in the market The
dealings were largely in professional
hands and were supposed to reflect the
operations of speculative pools, includ
ing some of the prominent capitalists of
the country The situation of affairs was
not materially changed from that of yes
terday and the new demonstration OF
strength was based largely on the APP
preaching return to New York of j. T.
Morgan, which has caused renewal OF
many long current rumors of financial
projects and railroad deals which are
supposed to await his action to be put
into force. The most prominent of these
in it's effect upon the speculation is the
formulation of plan for control OF
Louisville and Nashville. There seems
a fairly general agreement that this plan
will take the form of guarantee OF
dividend on Louisville and Nashville,
commonly supposed to have been liked
at seven per cent The movement led by
Louisville made itself felt In other
Southern stocks, notably Illinois Cen
trail and Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis. Norfolk and Western and Chesa-
peake and Ohio were also supposed to
derive some benefit from this cause, al
though the advance in Pennsylvania and
Baltimore and Ohio pointed to specula-
ton on the soft coal traffic. A settlement
Of the coal strike and decision on the
question of the presidency of the United
States Steel Corporation are also sup
posed to await Mr.. Morgan's action.
The upward movement in Southern Pa
cific was aggressively renewed today for
