Z
Years ago, at a period of doubt and
uncertainty. an increase in the divi-
dend on Baltimore and Ohio proved
great stimulus to sentiment on tho
ground that as the board included
representatives OF practically every
great financial interest. the course
adopted was equivalent to guarantee
by all the leading authorities that
both In the financial and the railroad
worlds there was fair weather and
plain sailing ahead. Included in the
board arc representatives of the Stand
ard Oil party and of the three leading
the two great railroad systems, Union
Pacific and Pennsylvania, whose com
bined holdings embrace nearly half Of
the stock OF the road.
American Smelling and Refining
made a larger gain than any other ac-
tive stock. It was strong and active
all day and was more talked of than
any other security in the Industrial
