Standard Oil plans large stock issue to spread prices
New York reports Standard Oil intends to raise capital from 100 million to 600 million by issuing six shares for each outstanding share. The move aims not to raise new money immediately but to boost share prices, with a 48 percent dividend cited by the issue. The plan would scatter stock to many towns to rally opposition to Sherman. If prices drop to about 1.15 after the split, dividends would fall to around seven percent.
