Fabulous Standard Oil Profits.


From the Iron and steel Trade buieLn-
Wall street IS simply aghast at the fabulous
nrofts of the Standard Oil Company. The
declaration of dividend of SS q share on the
S97. SOC. 900 outstanding stocks of the king of
cornorations, which means 80 per cent in
dividends so far this year, has set the financial
world talking.
On March Ia last the company declared a
dividend of $50 share, or about Sc, 600, 600,
which was probably the largest interest dis
bursement ever made by n corporation in this
couutry. This dividend was followed on June
Is by payment of SO share, and now
comes an additional SS per share. Thus S3S,
OOO. COO or about that amount rs required tor
the payment of the three dividends.
In the past eighteen years, exclusive OF the
current year, the Standard Oil Company has
paid something like 1922, $50, 900 in dividends.
A comparative table is interesting. 1t shows:
From 1882 to 1891 the company paid divi-
dends at 81 per cent, amounting to S47 ,250,
600; 1891 to 1895, dividends al II per cent,
S4s. 600. 600; 1896, dividends at 81 per cent,
S3l 600, 900; 1897, dividends at 35 per cent,
S38, ,OOO. 900; 1898, dividends at 80 per cent,
$50, 600, 900; 1899, dividends at 3S per cent,
SS3. 600. 900; estimated this year As per cent,
or SIS, 100000
John d. Rockefeller, President of the com
pany. is popularity credited with owning about
one.third of the million shares of the corpora
ton. On that basis his check for his share
of the present dividend would be approx.
mately 81. .666, 600, and should the dividend
payments continue only at this rate Rocketel-
Ter would draw annually about Sl0,666,OOt
from his Standard holdings alone.

,H0LD-UP CAUGHT.
Plum Alley Footpad Caught in
Ogden.

Chief Hilton received notice from Og-
den last night that Harry Wilson. who
is said to be the man who held up the
Jap in Plum alley a few nights ago
and relieved him of $500, had been
placed under arrest there last night.
Wilson was arrested on a description
sent there by the police department
here. The police here say that Wilson
is a desperate character who is want
ed in Colorado for a felony.
The description of Wilson was Sc
cured by the police here through very
exciting circumstances which might
have resulted in a shooting scrape if
the police had known the near pres
ence of the man for whom they were
hunting. They passed within ten feet
of the muzzle of the hOld-up's gun,
but did not know it until afterwards.
According to the story told by the
police, a few minutes after the hold
UP occurred the Jap ran to Chief Hill
ton and Ofncer Burt and said that
the man had gone up into Ada VIII
sons resort on Commercial street. The
officers followed and found that the
man had gone in there but the girls
in the place said he went on through.
