PITTSBURGH, Jan. 31.-Oil and

ness on the Pittsburgh Stock Exchange
in the week Just closed. Nearly one
half of the trading was in Pure OIL,
the price movement of which was very
erratic. The stock started at 1S&,
Jumped to 20ia, a new high record,
broke to 10, recovered to- 2oA and
closed thu week at 2054. These move
ments were in response to very con-,
fiicting stories concerning dividend &C
ton or the lack OF action and the d.
rectors' meeting held in Philadelphia
on Wednesday. 1t was positively de.
MED that the directors had declared
a dividend of 50 per cent, or $3.50 a
share, the first since June, 1914, Just
before the outbreak of the ,Eurpp gan
war. At the close Of the market on
Saturday no official confirmation had
been Forthcoming, but the strength
of the stock In the final dealings ana
the character OF the buying during the
latter part OF the week, created the
impression that the dividend had been
declared and that formal announce
ment would be made in due time.
During the week nearly all grades
of petroleum produced in the several
fields advanced in price. The renewed
upward movement began in the mid
continent field, extended to OHIO ana
Louisiana, where prices reached the
highest ever quoted, and finally reacn'
ed the Eastern fields, where PennsyE
