This places the stock oh an annual basis of $2 a share compared with $¢ annually on the old stock which was split two for one. Regular quarterly dividends of $1.75 on the first preferred and $1.50 on the second preferred also were authorized. The company earned $1.32 a share on the common in the first hall of 1928, against 78 cents a share in the first half of 1927, on about half the stock now standing. FARM OUTLOOK GOOD. NEW YORK, August 1 (P).—L. A Downs, president of the INinois Central, said the agricultural outlook in the road’s territory for this time of year never was better. Corn and oats in Iowa and Illinols and cotton in the Southern States were In excellent condition. He looked for sharp increases in coal traffic, accompanied by high:r coal prices in the near future. Passenger revenues were showing declines, but ‘the long- haul freight from the steel mills near Chicago for export via New Orleans was slightly better than a year ago. SHEPARD STORES DIVIDEND.

A further decrease in prices of Spring chickens was the interesting *|feature of today's market reported by wholesalers, and dealers anticipate an increased demand because of the con- ‘There has been a steady demand for chickens throughout the Summer season, re- ceipts early in the season being light enough to continue high prices several weeks. Later receipts from Maryland and Virginia and still later from more dis- tant States furnished supplies more than equal to the demand. Receipts the past week have been fairly heavy, while the demand, with so many con- sumers away on their vacations, was not great enough (o cnable the dealers | to clean up. Meat dealers reported no change in prices today. Lamb continued the cheapest meat offered, beef, veal and pork continuing at prices quoted the first of the week. It is the belief of dealers that prices will not change to any material extent for some time. Peaches and Cantaloupes Abound. Peaches and cantaloupes continue in quantitiées more than equal to the de- mand, the peaches coming from sev- eral States in the South, while the " | cantaloupes are from nearby. Southern |and Western States. Dealers reported a weakening of the market on both fruits. Moderate supplies of honey dews and noney oalls are being received, accord- ing to reports, and the demand for them is fair, The demand for the two va- rieties of melons is kept down because of the large supplies and cheap prices | of cantaloupes. Tomatoes and other vegetables from nearby farms were as plentiful this morhing as earlier in the week and prices were reported low. Butter and egg prices continued unchanged.

AUGUST: Tobatco Auctions Opened in Georgia; Big Market Seen I By the Associated Press. ATLANTA, August 1.—The cry of the tobacco auctioneer was the clar- lon call In 2% south Georgla towns today, when the first of some 68,- 000,000 pounds of the “golden weed” went on the block, opening what was confidently e: to be the great- est market on record in the State. At 52 warehouses, 7 more than last year, growers and buyers, the latter representing all the larger American concerns, were gathering for the 1928 bright leat auctioning season. Most of the towns were bedecked in gala attire for the sale, with pre- dictions of the first day offering run- nmgk around the half million-pound mark. SIXTY-PASSENGER AERO MODEL TESTED Craft to Be Used to Establish Transatlantic Lines to Be Built Immediately. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 1.—Comple- tion of 'g:;.s on a aodel of & seaplane designed to carry 60 passengers across the north Atlantic Ocean in 20 hours was announced yesterday by the O’Connor Transatlantic Airways, Inc. Present plans call for construction work, to begin immediately, with the probability that the first plane will be completed in four months. The O'Con- nor Co. has been organized to develop a project looking to the establishment of transatlantic and coastwise South American and Bermuda routes. The p! plane Is the invention of John P. O'Connor of New York. It will have a wing spread of 160 feet and will weigh 70000 pounds under full load. Its power plant will consist of eight air-cooled motors, two of which will be held 1o reserve. Entirely new principles in structural design are to be used, Mr. O’'Connor said, which “will make possible the carrying of the large fuel load necessary to cross the ocean and at the same time to carry pay loads.” In the event of unexpected motor trouble and a forced landing. it was said, the fAnished plane will be in every way seaworthy, even in a severe north Atlantic storm.
