Hill in Complete Control OF the Mer.
tier Roads.

New York, July 14.-It is reported in
Wall street and generally believed, as
a result OF the revival of the action of
the stocks affected, that James J. Hill,
associated with certain local banking
interests, has purchased the Union Pa
citi& holdings of the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific. The report
gained seeming confirmation by the
upward jump OF Northern Pacific. ~
Four years ago the Union Pacific
interests sought the control of the
Northern Pacific, causing the famous
panic OF Ma! 8, 1901, when ''nipper''
stock sold. for $1,000 a share cash.
Then followed the long litigation over
Northern Securities, the liquidation of
which was opposed strongly but I'M
successfully by E. H. Hartman and
his associates.
1t is estimated that at least $780,
000,000 is involved in Hills reported
oCun.
