Compromise With Anthony Com

Not long ago a fashionably-attired
young lady called at the office of the New
York Society for the Suppression OF
Vice and asked TO see the writer, says
the agent of the society in the North
American Review. She wanted to
know if it was against the law to pub
liSh ''Spicy book" | looked at her in
amazement. as she was young, of slight
>form and very intelligent appear
ance, when, with perfect sang
froid, she Informed me tnat she was an
actress, and had written peculiar
book" which she unblushingly de-
scribed, to bring her name prominently
befor the public. She had taken her
manuscript to a publisher, who, after
looking it over, advised her to submit it
to our society. She then inquired if
would promise not to touch the book if
she could secure a publisher for it..
Being informed that such book would
surely be seized if published, she wished
to know if she could not pay us not to
attack the book if published as she had
prepared it! Pains were taken to in
form her of the various decisions of the
courts of England and this country,
aud she was advised, with great minute
ness, of the law and its bearings
upon such publications. Receiving a
very emphatic negative to her delicate
proposition that she should pay some
money not to have her book attacked,
she next asked whether, if she should
change the book so as to make it con-
form to the law,'wS would not "attack
it just little" and seize few copies if
she paid us for doing so, so as to attract
attention and get the newspapers to no.
tice it. This proposition brought only
another disappointment to her hopes.
She said she did not care about
any odium from publishing the
book; the only thing she was anxious
about was that we should promise
not to arrest her, as she did want,not to
be arrested and locked up. 1t was sug-
gested to her that she had better sub
nit her manuscript for examination.
She said she would, only she was afraid
it was so bad that we would destroy it.
We assured her that if her manuscript
were of doubtful character we would
submit it to the district attorney for his
opinion, and be bound by that opinion.
She finally left, expressing sorrow and
regret that she had come to our office,
as now she would not dare to publish
her book, as she had set her heart upon
doing,

under bail for trial on charge of con-

ertY at public sale tomorrow. This
property formerly belonged to John
Lucas, former president of the bank,
and was assigned by his widow to the
bank, together with the bank building,
to make up the now famous Lucas de-
felt.
Yard claims that the bank afterward
sold it to him, but nobody but himself
seems to have any knowledge of such a
sale. AS soon as he heard of the COM
ing sale Mr.. Yardley made efforts to
prevent it. He held a hurried consul
tation with his attorneys, one of whom
went to Trenton to make application
for an injunction restraining Yard from
making the sale. Assignee McGill. of
the John Bardsley estate, took similar
