FIFTY PER CENT
 STOCK DIVIDEND
 TO BE DECLARED
(Post-Intelligencer.)

SEATTLE, Nov. 3. = At a special meeting of the directors of the Alaska Steamship Company it was decided to call meeting of stockholders of the company November 16 to vote on the proposition to increase the capitaliza- tion of the company from s3,000, ,00G to sl,5o0,oO0 The change, which is said to be certain to go through, means the declaration of stock divi- dend of 50 per cent.
 The pending action is significant, ag it makes plain, in tangible form, the increasing business being done by the company with Alaska and the proportionate increase in the value Of the company itself.
 The contemplated change in the cap italiaztion is the direct result of the tremendous increase in the value Of the business done by the company be tween Seattle and Southeastern and Southwestern Alaska, and also is the result of the increase in value of the companys fleet of carriers, due to the world shortage of ocean tonnage and profitable bottoms.
 s.a's export business to tn. United States has shown great in crease in value from month to month through increased demand and higher prices for metals, principally copper and it's food products, salmon, halibut cod and herring. The increase in the value of exports for October alone has been more than s3,O0O,OOO over the fig ures for September, according to a statement issued by John F. Pugh al Juneau, collector of customs for the territory of Alaska. During October Alaska sent to the United States pro ducts valued at more than $13,000,000
