If search is made of a. private

FALLING PRICES CAUSE
OIL DIVIDEND CUTS

CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-Apprehension
that the present condition of over
production and sharp price cutting
in the petroleum industry would
lead to dividend reductions by oil
companies is borne out here.
Two of the large concerns have
announced cuts in their dividends.
The directors of the Producers and
Refiners' Corporation declared a
quarterly dividend of so cents after a
protracted meeting in Chicago. Dur
ing the last two quarters dividends
of 81 were paid.
The Ohio Oil Company, a stand
ard Oil subsidiary also declared a
quarterly dividend of so cents. In
the last two quarters. following a
distribution of 800 per cent stock
dividend, the payment was 75 cents.
