CARING for CONSERVATIVES.

There are now four special methods
by which consumptive workingmen in
the United States are being cared for.
In such cities as Albany. Elmira and
Binghamton, N Y, the unions support
a separate pavilion or hospital In
cities like Hartford, New Britain and
South Manchester, Conn, the work
men contribute towards the mainte-
nance of fund for the care of con-
sumptives. The employers also. con-
tribute to these funds. There are also
two national sanatoria for the treat
ment OF tuberculosis owned and oper-
ated by labor unions; one by the in
ternational Typographical union and
the other by the Printing Freshmen
and Assistants union. In Massachu-
sets, Illinois and elsewhere large cor
porations and manufacturers have
agreed voluntarily to care for all their
consumptive employees for limited
length of time.

MISSOURI GUSTS
HARVESTER FIRM
International Concern Fined $50.
600 as Unlawful Combine.
HAS CHANCE TO GET BACK
5upreme Court Imposes Certain Con-
ditions Whereby Concern May
Continue Its Business-SpeciaI
Commissioner Sustained.

Jefferson City. Mo.-The supreme
court of Missouri handed down a
decision ousting the International Har-
vester company from the state of Mis-
souri, and assessing that corporation
$4,000 as an unlawful combination in
restraint of trade. In issuing a writ
of custer the court upheld the decision
of Judge Brace, the special commits
sioner.
The court imposes this condition
that if the company pays the fine, sep
arates itself from the International
Harvester company of New Jersey,
files a statement of its business and
shows to the court that it will obey
the laws in the future, 1t may be per
mitted to continue to do business in
the state. It has so days to comply
with this order.
The court sustained the position OF
Special Commissioner Brace on every
contention. 1t was declared in the
opinion that competition was lessened
and that practically all of the harvest
er business was done by the respond
ent company in the state. 1t held that
it is contrary to the laws OF Missouri
for one company to conduct the bust
ness of another as, in this case. the
New Jersey company had no license
to do business in Missouri.
In September, 1910, the Interna-
tional Harvester company was found
guilty of violating the Missouri anti
trust laws by a commissioner appoint
ed by the state supreme court. The
case was submitted to the supreme
court for affirmation last April. All
the companies which make up the in
ternational company are prevented by
the decision from conducting further
business in the state.
Commissioner Brace declared in his
report that the International Harvester
company, by reason of it's enormous
capital--$12O, 900, O0O--could not obtain
a license in Missouri, so the Interna-
tional Harvester Company of America,
al a selling agent, was organized and
obtained license This concern,
Judge Brace said, was organized sim
ply to evade the laws of the state
which, barred the holding company
from entering The commissioner
found that the international had prac-
tically a monopoly on the sale of bind
ers in Missouri

STANDARD OIL PAYS
ITS FINAL DIVIDEND
Corporation Has Distributed $751; ,oco,.
Geo Since 1ee2-Payne Resigns
as Director.

New >York-Besides declaring a
dividend of seven dollars share
for the last quarter of the year-the
last dividend to be declared before it
is dissolved-the Standard Oil Com
pany of New Jersey made public its
plan to conform with the mandate of
the United States Supreme court.
Since the Standard Oil was given
corporate form in 1882 it has distrib-
uted about $751.O0O,O0O in dividends.
The Standard Oil Company of New
York also declared dividend of $40
a share, which is equivalent to a
dividend of $3.05 a share on the stock
of the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey. The regular Standard Oil
Company of New Jersey dividend for
the last quarter of the year has been
SO a share
Following the meeting of the direc-
tors formal announcement was made
of the manner of distribution Of
stocks of subsidiary companies to the
shareholders of the Standard Oil Com
pany of New Jersey. 1t provides that
in the segregation In compliance with
the decree of the United States Su-
preme court fractional parts of the
shares of subsidiary companies will
be exchanged for each share of the
New York corporation.
With the exception of the stock of
the Anglo American Oil Company.
Limited, the shares of the companies
will be ready for distribution Deem
Der l. The distribution will be
made to stockholders of record as of
September 1. The stock of the Anglo
American company will be distributed
at a later late, of which the stock
holders will be duly notified. Share
holders of the Standard Oil Company
of New Jersey will receive in ex-
change for their stock, the stock OF
thirty different companies.
The basis of distribution was de-
termined by the capitalizations of the
Standard Oil Company Of New Jersey
and it's subsidiaries Thus in the
case of the Atlantic Refining company
holder of one share of the Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey received
a proportional interest In the capitali-
cation of the Atlantic Refining COM
pany, in this case 49996-9833S3 of one
share.
The report that John D. Rookie
Teller, William Rockefeller and
others of the older group of Standard
Oil men are to retire from the company
and turn its affairs over to the direc-
ton of the younger clement, is Off
cially denied Except for the resigna-
ton of Colonel Payne, no other i'm
portant changes are expected.
