DIVIDENDS FROM TWO
TINT|C PROPERTIES
Iron Blossom and Colorado De.
clare First Quarterly
Disbursements.

Al the regular monthly meetings OF the
Knight companies held in Provo Thurs
day morning, dividends !or both Colo
RADIO and Iron Blossom were declared
the former distribution TO amount to 10
cents per share, or 100000, and Iron
Blossom cents per share, or $40 200.
Colorado dividend is payable on March
90 books 70 close on March 10. and Iron
Blossom is payable March 30. books to
close March 25.
This is the first Of the dividends TO be
declared since the knight companies eX-
pressed their intention OF paying quar-
terly instead OF monthly, and many. who
anticipated larger distribution, were
much disappointed with the amounts of
each. and their dissatisfaction was eX-
pressed indirectly in the action of the
securities on the local stock board at tho
afternoon call. Others. however, MAIN
tain that the policy of further develop
ment even at the sacrifice of velvet
declarations, is good one. and that In
the long run the companies viii benefit
thereby.
Other Meetings.
Among the other Knight companies
that held meetings this morning was
Opex Nj. II. Walker. George 7, odell
and Elmer b. Jones OF Salt Lake city
were in attendance at this meeting. The
reports were all favorable upon the show
ing that has been made by development
work of late In this property, and il is
understood that the company should he
able to begin shipments carly during the
summer months.
Sioux Consolidated directors also met
during the day but adjourned without
taking any action on the dividend ques-
ton. or transactlng any business OF im-
portance, Grand Central and Victoria
NEE tings arc TO follow later, and IT. is the
general impression that Notwithstanding
the fact that both companies have neat
surpluses In their treasures, the divi-
donds will for the present be discon-
tnued. II being the intention of the man
aeement 10 prosecute their plans OF more
extensive prospecting and development
before distributing any profit money
among the stockholders,

SUSPENSION OF LUMBER RATES
Washington, Oct 1.-The interstate
commerce commission today ordered
the proposed increase of freight rates
on lumber and forest products gener-
ally. from the Pacific northwest to
points OF eastern destination suspend
cd until Feb. 8. 1911.
The proposed advances were to be-
come effective Oct. 16. The commits
sion will inquire in to their reasonable
ness.
Several million dollars year In
freight rates are involved In the pro.
ceeding The lumber manufacturers
Of the Pacific northwest contend that
they cannot pay the proposed advance
and that it would mean ruin to them
If It were put into effect.
Hearings will be held by the COM
mission respecting reasonableness OF
the proposed increases.
The case Is one OF immense impor.
tance to the North Pacific lumber
manufacturers, particularly to those In
the Willamette valley district. The
immediate case is directed against the
Southern Pacific company, the Cor
rails & Eastern Railroad company, and
the Independence Monmouth Railroad
company, on behalf OF which the
tariffs have been filed. All Of the
northwestern lines eventually will be
drawn into the case.
