TEX. PAC. COAL TO
INCREASE STOCK
Number of Shares to Be Made
100000 and Par Value
Cut to SO.

Announcement was made yesterday of
the intention Of the management of the
Texas Pacific Coal and Oil Company to
increase the number of shares OF its
stock from $4,000 to 100000 and to re-
duce the par value Of its shares from
500 to $40 each. A special meeting Of
the stockholders has been called for No
vember IL in the company's principal
office in Thurber, Tex, to vote on the rati-
ficatlon of the plan.
stockholders tho company will issue ten
new shares of $40 par value in ex-
change for every share Of 800 par value
now held by its stockholders The pur-
pose Of the change, as stated In the
notice sent to the stockholders. Is to
stabilize the price of the stock, which
has reached such q high point that
the smallest trade of It Is apt to affect it
as much as fifty points or moro.
With the shares now selling around
S1,675 each, 1t is pointed out by an OFF,
cial of the company. an effort to buy the
stock results IN an immediate advance of
fifty or more points, while on the other
hand, an attempt to sell brings about
softening of the prioe in a similar
manner. with the new stock issue the
price a share viii be cut to one-tenth
of It's present amount and trading Will
not cause such wide fluctuations.
There is a growing tendency on tho
part of corporations whose stocks are
selling at a high price," says the notice
sent by the management to the stock
holders. ito reduce the par value OF These
stocks for the convenience Of stockhold-
ers and promote stability. In line with
this tendency It has been thought ad-
visable that this company reduce the par
| value OF its shares from 800 to $40, and
a special meeting has been called to au-
| thorize the reduction In par value
The stock transfer books will be closed
at the close Of business or October 81
