Gone Up in smoke.

Directors of the United Cigar Stores
are scheduled to meet to-day and take
action on the dividend. Many rumors
have recently been current that at this
session they would either declare stock
dividend or perhaps take action on the
reported consolidation OF the company
with the Tobacco Products and American
Sumatra Tobacco companies. Other ru-
mors have also been in circulation, but
all those stories have been exploded by
the appearance OF several energetic
press agents here and at Washing
ton. Since the presence of these ennis
saries has been discovered the stock,
which sold at 1851 week ago Monday,
has declined TO 99l., the closing quota
ton yesterday. As il to prepare the
public for some disappointment. reports
were current yesterday that the meeting
booked for to-day might not be held
owing TO the improbablity of obtaining
quorum in view OF the absence OF some
of the directors who are out of town.
This story was followed by the sale OF
stock by some disguised holders who
had purchased on the expectation that
the action to be taken at to-day's NEE.
Ing would be used as the foundation for
an upward movement in the shares.
