were tremendous dealings and it rose

theory is that Union Pacific will con-
troll the Northern Pacific on the dis

company and return the merged
stocks To effect this, street gossip
has it the Hill interests have bought
heavily into the Union and the South

Union Pacific is by a harmonious
agreement to be made the dominating
interest in the Northern Pacific and
the Great Northern. Other stories.
