Encyclopedia Firm Brings Ac-
ton in Trenton to Dissolve
Its Partnership.

TRENTON, May 2S.-The cause of the
disagreement between Walter M. Jack
son. of Newton, Mass, and Horace E.
Hooper, who for many years have been
associated in the publication and sale of
the Encyclopaedia Britannica, which
led jackson to file a bill in Chancery
asking hat a receiver be appointed to
take charge of their joint assets, was
the inability of the partners to agree on
a proposition to purchase the London
Times.
The bill of complaint filed by Linda
bury, Depue & Faulks, of Newark, gives
some inside history regarding the bust
ness management of the Encyclopaedia
Britannica and a plan of it's prospectus
for the purchase of the London Times,
which was interested in the enterprise.
1t shows that for years Mr.. Jackson
and Mr.. Hooper under a joint partner
ship, controlled absolutely the affairs of
the various corporations which were or
gained to circulate the encyclopaedia.
: BY means OF dummy directors. who
performed no actual service for their
corporations, and in some instances
met less han once a year, the partners
managed the details of the enterprise
AND kept their books in such a manner
as to escape the payment Of taxes to
which the partnership. under the Eng
lish law, would nave been subjected.
