TRUST TO INCREASE STOCK.
Stock Could be More Widely Dis
tributcd to Advantage.

New York, Feb. S.-Unofficial an
nouncement was made in Wall
Street that the Standard Oil Com
pany is preparing to increase its cap
ital stock from $1OO,000,000 to
5000, 100000 by issuing six shares
for each one now outstanding 1t is
not designed to raise Immediately
any money on this new issue, but
simply to divide the present high
priced shares into six and give them
to the old stockholders.
The company has two objects in
doing this. One is to try to dispel the
public criticism that arises every
time the Standard declares a 40 or
48 per cent. dividend The other Is
to bring about a scattering of the
stock among a larger number of
holders, so that there may be mis-
sionaries in every town to help stem
the rising tide of opposition to the
trust. It is argued that the salvation
of the Steel Trust is it's enormous
number of small stockholders, and
the Standard at last is seeking cover
from the antitrust sentiment
