HARPERS BOOK HEAD
FACES PRISON TERM
Madeline" Story Published by
His Company Declared OBJ
scene by Trial Jury.

New York, Jan. 24.--The publication
by Harper & Brothers of an anonymous
book called Madeleine" which is the
story of a young female person who Is
represented as being far from what she
should, resulted yesterday IN Special
Sessions IN the conviction under section
1,l4l of the penal law, which concerns
the circulation of obscene literature, of
Clinton Il. Brainard, president and treas
urer of the corporation and treasurer of the
extraordinary Grand jury which has been
investigating the 'overshadowing crime "
The judgment of the court, so 1t was said
last night, will cause District Attorney
Swami 10 take steps to have Nj. .Brainard' s
connection with the Grand Jury severed
immediately. During its deliberations
the convicted publisher has been one of the
most outspoken critics OF the prosecutor S
Office, 1t Is reported.
The firm of Harper & Bros, also was
found guilty of the offence. The cases
were tired together before Justices Noor-
hees, Mcfnerney and Herman. Mr..
Brainard's vail OF $500, originally given
IN the Magistrates Court, viii continue
In effect until January 80, when he viii
be brought In for sentence. In the mean
time the court viii investigate various
issuance.
A sentence of from ten days to year
IN the penitentiary or fine of from $50
to 81, 900, or both, may be imposed. Under
the indeterminate sentence law it also
would be possible for the court to i'm
prison Mr.. Brainard for not more than
three years.
Mr.. Brainard swore, that he never even
heard of Madeleine" until he was served
with a summons In the present case.
Three nights later he said he took the book
home and read it, after which he told
William H. Briggs of l36 East Seventieth
street, member of the Harper 'literary
conference that it never should have
been published. Despite this judgment,
Mr.. Brainard said that Madeleine" had
been commented upon favorably by Jane
Addams, Judge Ben Lindsey of Denver
and the Boston Transcript. A evidence
of the sort Of books Harper q Bros. place
upon the market, Mr.. Brainard said they
had published all save one of those written
by President Wilson and had In prepara-
tion the life and letters of Grover Cleve-
land
'Tll never read them before they are
published, any more than ] read Made
leine,' said Mr. Brainard IL don't have
time If they had cut out one chapter
the one where Madeleine had chance to
marry and leave the life she was In, but
didn't in my judgment, it would have been
a great uplift book"
'.Do you think all the other passages
have a tendency to uplift?" asked Mr..
McGrath in an especially silky menner.
II should hate to say that about the
Bible, =" countered the publisher.
Mr.. McGrath delivered several ex-
cerpts from Madeleine" and the court
attendants lowered three of the windows
from the top.
