S. D, DIVIDENDS
At LOW EBB

Although there we're no reduc-
tions or omissions of dividends
by the companies of the Stand
ard Oil group in the current
quarter, cash dividend payments
by the group declined to the
lowest total for any quarter since
the close of 1915.
Aggregate disbursements tor
the group for the third quarter
of 1888 are estimated at $19,-
SAG, ,576, according to compila-
tions by Carl H. Pforzheimer &
Co., compared with $34,527 SAT
in the preceding quarter and $43,-
858, ,468 in the third quarter OF
1882.
The total distribution for the
first three quarters of 1888 will
m cunt to $86, ,480,455 against
$136, ,938, 1894 in the corresponding
period of last year.
The absence of dividend dis
tribution by the Standard Oil
Company of New Jersey in the
current quarter accounts for the
greater part of the decline. In
the previous quarter the company
paid a semi-annual dividend OF
so cents a share or approximately
1880, 900.

NeLU Plan to Ease
BROKERAGE Work

NEW YORK, Aug. 25 G.N.S0.
The stock exchange took another
step today to aid overworked
brokerage employees through a
change in the delivery system.
According to plan on which
the governing committee will vote
next Wednesday, deliveries Of
stocks and bonds will be deferred
to the second day after the trans
actions, instead of 2:15 p. M, the
following day, as has been the
practice for years.
This, it was explained, should
eliminate much of the night work
which develops in big markets.
During the recent initiation boom
when daily transactions ran from
100000 to more than 100000
shares a day, staffs in many
brokerage houses worked day and
night and sometimes entire week
ends,
