THE PUBLISHERS ASSOCIATION.
BOOK DEALERS NOT CERTAIN AS TO THE Eff
FEET ON THEM-THE SMALL DEALER AND
THE DEPARTMENT STORE

Curiosity is the prevailing feeling among book
dealers in regard to the American Publishers Asso-
citation which was formed Wednesday after
noon They do not know whether they will be
affected or not, and a result they have no def
mite opinions on the subject. 1t is said the real
object of the association is to put into execution
some plan by which the small book dealers can be
protected against the department stores The de-
partment stores handle large consignments of
popular novels without attempting to make any
profit them. using them to draw people into the
stores At the time the department stores
do not pay much attention to serious works, such
as books on art science history, for which
they must pay a high price 10 the publisher with
out being able to afford any considerable reduction
the price at which they offer them to the public
The small dealer, the contrary. has almost as
much demand for serious works for popular
novels. owing to the fact that people buy their
novels at the department The result OF this
is that the small dealer in his desire for profits,
not being able to make much the high priced
serious works, is compelled TO keep up his prices
for novels which. therefore, is unable to sell.
Speaking of the association attempt to dis
criminate against the department stores for the
benefit of the small dealers, the manager of the
book department OF of the largest in this
city said to Tribune reporter yesterday.
'I do not how the publishers can discrIm-
mate against very well. Competition forces us
to keep the prices on books at the lowest level.
Prices watched with the greatest keenness
by dealers who will not hesitate underseIl US at
every opportunity They come into store and
such and such book marked at 81 cents for
example and they promptly have the same book
marked 70 cents in their store. This destructive
practice has to be of the conventional
ties OF the trade During November December and
January there s generally sort OF tacit agree
ment by which prices are kept up, but soon as
the holiday season is over there is immediate
slump"
1t said yesterday that the officers OF the as
s0ctation had not yet determined the plans by
brought about They even, deny that there is to
be any action taken at all which will affect the
relation Of the book trade TO the public George
P. Brett, OF the Macmillan Company said yester-
day:
The sole object Of the association is to correct
abuses in the trade which longer be recoa-
nized. Authors viii not be affected any more than
the public will be The association is entirely a
are. so long as they do not involve the public or
how we propose TO remedy them. Certainly moth
ing will be done just at present this being the
worst season Of the year In the book trade and
therefore an inoppOrtune time for attempting TO
put anything In the way of regulation into effect

CHANGES AT ELHIRA.
IF SUPERINTENDENT BRoCKwAY DOES NOT RE
SIGN. CHARGES MAY BE BROUGHT
AGAINST HIM.

Elmira N Y, July 26-It is probable that If
Dr. Frank w Robertson succeeds T. r. Brockway
as superintendent Of the New-York State Reforma-
tory In this city, the trades schools, a hobby
Of Mr. Brockway will be abandoned as a night
feature and conducted within ordinary working
hours This plan will interfere to considerable
extent with the daily military drill and the gen
eraI military features OF the institution, also pet
schemes Of the present superintendent. The mill
tary feature will become secondary to the trades
schools.
A man from Buffalo who is near to Manager
Howard OF the Reformatory was in Elmira to-
day, and he said that If Brockway's resignation
is not forthcoming at the meeting Of the board on
Tuesday next charges would be preferred and
a hearing set for early date. There was a
ruror afoat to-day that charges against the su-
perintendent had already been filed, but this was
denied by those connected with the institution who
ought TO know.
deny anything, refusing TO talk on the subject to
newspaper men.
