Pere Marquette Pays 1919
Back Preferred Dividend
Payments Cumulative Since
January |, 1919; Surplus Es-
timated at $40 Share for Yr.

Directors of the Pere Marquette
Railway Company yesterday declared
dividend of 10 per cent on the per
cent preferred stock, the first since
the reorganization in 1917 This pay
ment was in addition to the regular
quarterly disbursement of "a per cent
declared on the prior preference pre-
ferred
A statement issued after the meet
ing pointed out that the dividends on
the preferred have been cumulative
since January /, 1919, so that at the
end of this year there will remain
only per cent of accrued dividends
on this issue. The statement con-
tinued:
company was issued under the reor-
ganization of the Pere Marquette in
1917, and represents bonds OF the old
company. Although the dividend upon
the preferred stock has been earned
by the present company in each year
since the reorganization was effected
no dividends have previously been paid
thereon, as the directors have consid-
cred 1T more prudent not to do so
owing to conditions arising out of the
war and the Federal control of rail-
roads by the government.
The companys claim against the
government recently has been settled,
and the directors feel that the condi-
ton of the company is now such as to
permit the above distribution to be
made to the holders of it's preferred
stock on account OF the accumulated
dividends to which said stockholders
are entitled"
Based on earnings for the ten
months. it is estimated that the COM
psny will return a surplus at the end
of the year equivalent to $40 q share
on the preferred issue.

Crude Oil Costs Higher
Increased Prices VIII Be Neces.
sary, Says Haskell

CHICAGO, Dec. 7.-Crude oil and its
byproducts, including gasoline, will
cost more in the future because of the
difficulty in getting at the oil, Frank
Haskell, president of the Tidal Oil Com
pany, told the American Petroleum In
stitute to-day.
He said that the first paying wells
drilled in the mid-continent fields were
shallow, but that it was now necessary
to go deeper, with proportionate rise
in the cost of drilling.
He said there were $4,000 productive
oil wells in Oklahoma that nearly
every state in Mexico contained oil, and
there was much in untouched fields in
South America.

tutional amendment repeating the tax

Mr.. McFadden's move was through
letter to Chairman Fordney. He
stated that he was prompted to call
attention to his bill by the item in
