Manuscript COMPANY.

CHICAGO. March 29.-United States
marshals to-day raided the Office Of the
Chicago Manuscript Company in room
81, la La Sale street. in the belief that
the company has been 'pirating" copy
righted plays and selling the manuscripts
to theatrical managers. who thus escape
paying royalty.
Eight young women employed in copy
ing manuscripts. which it is alleged the
company pirated, were taken to the
Government building to be questioned.
Alexander Beyers and his wife. the re-
puted owners Of the concern. were not
present when the raid was made.
1t is charged that stenographers we're
sent to take down the lines Of new copy
righted plays and that the company sold
them after they had been worked over and
disguised,
Plays upon which as high as 81 900 a
week was being paid. il is said, were ap.
propriated by the concern and sold as
low as IS for the original copy and 81 so
for each players part.
The evidence was gathered by Lignon
johnson Of New York, special assistant
to the Attorney General and also repre-.
sentative OF the National Association OF
Theatrical Producers.
