The great success attained since
1887 by Siegel, Cooper & Co. has IN
duced and given warrant to the enter
prising owners to further ingratlate
themselves into public favor by con-
solidating their two mammoth estab-
lishments into cooperative enter
prise on proht-sharing basis. They
recognize the tendency of the present
age to be in the direction of co-opera-
ton of employers with employees, as
we'll as in proft-sharing with patrons.
To accomplish this desired condi-
ton new company. the Slegel-
Cooper Co. (Co-operative Stores. New
York and Chicago. has been lncor-
porated under the laws of the State OF
New Jersey, with a capital stock OF
S24 100000, OF which S14,25O,0O0 is
divided into 2S5,000 shares 81 cumu-
lative Preferred Stock OF $4,000 par
value, and $9,750,000 into 1875, 900
shares Common Stock of $4,000 par
value.
The Charter OF the Company pro-
vides that after full dividends OF 6& per
arntitn have been paid on the Pre-
ferred Stock. and full dividends OF 30
perannum have beenpaid on the Com
mon Stock, all additional dividends
shall be apportioned and paid on the
basis of 1-3 in amount on the Pre-
ierred Stock and 23 in amount on the
