STANDARD ISSUES
FEEL LIKE SPRING
Advance in Northern Pacific
Carries Price up Three Points
= Indications Point to a
Better Market From Now on.
BY BRoADAN WALL.

NEW YORK. March "a. - Spring
made its first appearance in the stock
market today. Like a burst OF warm
sunshine standard issues rose follow
ing an advance in Northern Pacific
that carried the price from 113 Is to
116 "a. For weeks past this stock
has been under pressure from sales by
commission house that have amount
ed 10 $4,000 shares. This liquidation
apparently ceased today and a sharp
rally resulted, bringing TO life the old
rumOrs that the c. b. & Q joint as
would be retired and Northern Pacific
receive its share Of the profits.
Opening prices were a disappoint-
ment. Commission houses were not
buyers and the market dragged al
though London took a fair amount Of
Union Pacific, Steel and Amalgamated
Copper. With a new settlement under
way at London, il was disclosed that a
a considerable short interest existed
in American stocks. Purchases
amounted TO 10000 shares.
Steel acted badly After opening at
Ga rs. the price slid off to Ga and on
strength in the general list later in
the day rose TO 65 3-S only TO slump
a 1-2 point just before the close. Quiet
selling is apparently going on under
cover. While reports OF the steel
business are frequently no criterion
IOi STOCK market prices, lTdue conul-
tons do not appear to BE favorable.
st Paul, Northern Pacific preferred.
Southern Pacific and Lenigh Valley
moved up readily a point or more.
Pennsylvania showed heaviness.
Baltimore and Ohio advanced from
80 81 to 90 12 in spite of an unfavOr-
able showing in earnings for Febru-
airy. With a gross decrease of 81, 1925,
600, net earnings lost S425 700.
During the month the arpOunt set
aside for upkeep decreased $500, 900
and taking the earnings for eight
months there is a gross decrease of
