GENERAL MARKET MOVES IN SYMPATHY Baoyaaey of Paeia Stock Take as FrennsllTe EvlJeaee of tha Advantage Secared la Co a. trolling Interest. NEW TORK. March 22. A price move ment of first-class Importance, with a mystery attached, stimulated the languid speculative appetite of the stock market today. Union Pacific was the leader of the movement, but the mystery centered about the Northern Securities company and the probable process of Its dissolution. All the securities related to that company and Its Interests made free price move ments. Northern Securities were In eager demand on a rapidly rising price scale. Other stocks concerned In the Northern Securities merger have disappeared from the market, but the Oregon Short Line participating 4s, which are secured by the Union Pact tic's Northern Securities stocks as collateral, and the Hurllngton Joint 4s, which were exchanged for Burlington stock, were aotlve and higher. ' The principal question has been whether the Northern Faclflo and Urent Northern stocks should be redistributed to the hold ers from whom the Northern Securities received It or to present holders of North ern Securities in proportion to the value at which that stock had been changed for the merged stocks. The buoyancy of Union Pacific was presumptive evidenVe of the advantage secured to ths company by' Its controlling Interest In Northern Pacific be fore the rumor. The movement In the gen eral market was purely sympathetic and ran from a fraction to t points, the Inst named figure being slightly exceeded In St. Paul and Southern Pacific. United States steel preferred closed the nay un changed. The arrival of 22.SOO.OOO add! tlonal Japanese gold at San Francisco was reported. Union Pacific's extreme rise reached 8 points on dealings of 4O8.000 shares, that in Great Northern preferred 7"4 and Northern Securities on the curb about 7 points to within a shads of par. The close was strong and active. The bond market was strong, led by Donas related to ths Northern Securities merger. Total sales, par value. 13.llo.ouo.
