NEW YORK, December 1.-The thirty
three subsidiary companies into which
the Standard Oil Company divided after
the Supreme Court decreed its dissolu-
ton began their separate individual ex-
istence today. Some 100000 new stock
certificates containing pr0portionate
shares in these companies were mailed
yesterday to the 6,0OO-odd stockholders
of the old Standard Oil Company. of New
Jersey. With the certificates was sent
information giving the location OF the
headquarters of the Inirty-tnree COM
panies, the dates of their organization
No provision has been made for the
elimination of the fractional shares now
distributed. The usual Wall street prac-
tice Of having fractional shares listed on
the stock exchange. and dealt in until
they become consolidated into full shares
Is not possible in this case. because, as
at present, the oil shares in general can
not be listed Brokers said today, how
ever, that some plan for the elimination
or consolidation OF the fractional shares
undoubtedly would be worked out.
Certificates Prove a Puzzle.
Nothing like the new stock certificates
distributed today had ever been seen be-
fore in Wall street. Even their appear
ance was confusing, for the thirty-three
certificates were printed in thirty-three
different colors. But the chief point Of
confusion was that no one had any idea
what they were worth. Standard Oil nev-
er has made public its financial affairs,
nor@has 1t published annual reports, as
most large corporations do. The value of
the stock has Deen fixed by the size of its
dividends, which, of course, represented
