The directors of the Standard Oil Company Tuesday declared a f dividend ol $12 a share on the capital stock lot the last, quarter of the year. This is an increase oi $2 a share as compared with the corresponding quarter of the preceding year. The capital ) <.| the company is in the neighIan hood ot $ 100,000,000, and the dividend agreed upon today rep' resents disbursements of$ 12,000. S M OO lor the quarter, ami $44, 000.000 for the full year. Last fl I , : vear stockholders ol the corpora .lion received $45,000,000. John L) Rockefeller is credited t with owning 33 per cent, of the >J.<tock'Ol ihe Standard Oil Comi panv, and his receipts from the earnings of the-corporation durI iiisr ttie current year appear to ho [ ] approximate!v $ 15,000,000. . The lour quarterly dividends of [ the corporation this year lollow : s March 20 per cent ; .June 7 per I cent.; September, 5 per cent.; and j November, 12 per cent.. In the j lirsi quar'er ol 1002. 20 percent. r( was declared, second quarter 10 t : per cent., third quarter, 5 per Hcent., and last, quarter, 10 per Mcent. The increase in the divi, I dend during the current quarter j is due to larger "earnings, resultt ing from a sharp advance in the l i price of oil. According to an official ol the Standard Oil Com s panv, the corporation carries no ' j surplus, giving the benefit of all ? 1 earnings to the stockholders. j The Standard Oil Company is ( now disbursing more money to ( lock holders than any other cor poration in the world. The , United Stales Steel Corporation iield first, place as a dividend payer previous to the reduction in the common dividend and the 1 conversion of preferred stock into bonds. It now ranks second j to the Standard Oil Company. Since January 1. 1897, the Stan 1 lard Oil Company has paid to 1 stockholders more than $275,000,000 in dividends. Ot that amount John D. Rockefeller has received more than $90,000,000. Since 1891 the disbursements of t he corporation run close to $375,000,000, or nearly for times ; | greater than the $100,000,000 the capital stock. A fair idea of the magnitude of the dividends of the Standard Oil Company can be obtained Irom I he tact, that the Pennsylvania Itailroad Company, within the 1 last 57 years, has paid something 1 like .$'215,000,000 to stockholders 1 or $00,000 000 less than the * liockleller corporation lias disbursed in six years. 1 In view ot the fact that the oil ! has been advancing on the strength of reports that produc1 fion is falling olT very rapidly, the i _ < > lures lllood Poison, ('uiiccr, ('! , c?rx, Et'z^iiiR, ('arbuuol?N, Ktr.
