The bill of complaint describes the Periodical Clearing Houae aa a New York corporation, having an authorised capital stock of 12,000, consisting of twenty shares of $100 par value each, and an office at 156 Fifth Avenue. Various of the defendants, together with Hampton's Magazine which la not made a defendant In the suit, are named as Ita stockholders, and, the Individuals named In the complaint constitute tta Hoard of Director. Tbe complaint makes I It appear that the magazine publishers I rnmnineq to get a prnp upon xne apents handling the eventual sale of their product and to llmlnate competition In the field. "Such unlawful combination and conspiracy," aays the complaint. Is the result of a series of unlawful acts ex tending ox er a period of about two years.

participated In by the defendants respectively In the manner hereinafter set forth. In participating In the various acts, agreements, and combinations hereinafter described all of tha defendants have been actuated by a wrongful Intent to restrain said Inter-State and foreign commerce in magazines and other periodical publications and to monopolize pari inereor. For many years prior to Julr. 1909. states the complaint, the business of selling mngaxlnes and other periodicals nai oeen suDject to iree and unrestricted competition, and had been conducted la one of two ways: Either by the publisher of each publication selling directly to purchasers, or thrnueh middlemen.

who sold by single copies or term sub scriptions. Competltloa In ke Past. This competition, according to the com' plaint, was keen, with the result that the publishers made contracts with the subscription agencies at muah lesa than the regular subscription prices, while I the subscription agenclea In many cases sold to the public at prices less than the I publishers subscription prices, aitnoun enouKh abo- the publitihera' prices to the i agents to leave a comfortable margin or profit. Then the scheme or "'ciubDlne;" la described. Tho subscription agencies and agenta got up combinations of magazines, and were freauentlv able to sell masa- sines as low as one-half the original subscription price, while the larger deal ers, employing canvassers, figured on still a further margin of profit.

Ail these thlncs. according to the complaint. had ttw effect of stimulating the. competition, and eventually produceda situation In which there were 20.O00 Corporations, co-partners hips, and Individuals en- fa Red In the business of publishing, sell-ng. and distributing magazines and periodicals to the Dubllc.

Hut In July, loon, as the Government contends, the various defendants, corporate and personal, together with the Suburban Preua. the Good Housekeeping Company, David H. McKlnlay, Arthur D. Chandler. Hampton's Magazine.

Capen. got together, and wronfffullr and unlaw- fullv designing and wickedly Intending to destroy the competition In prices of subscriptions or all magaamea ann periodical publications In the United States." formed the Periodical Clearing House rnider the Oeneral Stock Corpora tion act of this State, with the lift of siocanoiaers aireaay rererrea to.

Contract with the Agewclee. Having done this a form of contract was prepared, aa the complaint alleges. In furtherance of the unlawful con' splracy. and the defendants notified all the subscription agencies In the country that they woull havo to sln this con tract If tnev expected to do any further business with members of the Ferlodlcal Clearing House. Practically all the principal subscription agencies were coerced into the contract, the Gov ernment contends, and then tha defend ants took the next step, which waa tbe ia.ua nee 01 an oinctai price list.

Accompanying the official price flat were the rules under which the magazines miffni ne sold, as the reault of which i there was estsbllshed and published mrunirnoui me i mteo states wnat was known as a "Publishers' Wholesale Price tJst," which covered about 3.O00 pertoaicais issuer! in thla and foreign countries. It is charged that In addition to Instating that price rutting of all ktnda should atop tha publishers declared that the agents must not sell any periodicals not on the official list at less than original prices. In spite of the fact that the publishers of many of these periodicals would have been glad to let the agencies cut prices In order to Increase their circulation. To enforce this arrangement, aays the ripimL an Dora I ay stem Tines upon the! agencies was wnrkNl mt operated-through the Ieriodtcal Clearing jiouse. in case sn agency reniaed to give the Clearing Houae full Information to the prices it charged for anv pertodlcsl.

whether or pot such pertodlcsl was published by any one of the defend- ms srency necame sunfect to a fine of from $25 to and the amount of this fine wss deducted from the arencva credit on the books of the) Clearing Specimens of the Acre esse at. The complaint also reel tea that Kf Uta publishers formed in combination keen competition had existed for the business of libraries, between various agenta and agencies, sind that subsequently this competition vanished, and the libraries were forced to pay higher prices for their periodicals. The agreement between the Clearing Houae and the publishers constitutes the first exhibit of the complalnL Specimen restrictive sections of his agreement, which Is very long, are thoae relating to the "clubbing of maritinet and to libraries. Aa to the former It is provided: Tbe club mrnlstinn. foml.hed by the publishers shall provide that where clime consist of not more than four munlriM tbe price of the club of matrazlrw.

Clearing; Hoase let Control. The agreement which the agents had to sign allowed them cents commission on each subscription cleared by the Clearing House, against which, however, the Clearing House has the right to deduct In the hape of liquidated damages any flnea Imposed upon the agent. The control of the mall order business In magazines through the Clearing House, by making the agencies turn over the re ceipts on such business to be handled by the Clearing House, and submit sworn statements accompanied by Poet Office vouchers showing the amount of business done, is another feature of the contract with the agents and agencies.

The following Is Illustrative of the penalty clauses of the agency contract: For each miscalculation of the rate on a single magazine or group of magazines on the part of the agency, or for the acceptance of an Incorrect price, or ror rebates, in any rorm. connection with cleared business, the agency wlll pay the Clearing House on demand, as liquidated damages, not to exceed so upon each such magazine or publication published by a publisher who has appointed the Clearing House his agent for cleared business." The Defendants TCon-Corabattve. Herbert S. Houston, President of the Periodical Clearing House, said last night In an Interview with a Tikes reporter: If the Clearing House Is an unlawful organization I am very sure that every member of it will wish to have It dissolved at once. At no time has there been any disposition to withhold either from the Government or the pubiio any xact aDour.

Ita it is merely an association 01 periodical publishers formed to aid In maintaining fair and equitable conditions among the subscription agencies, c-dly enough. It has never sought to increase prices, but has pursued the directly opposite policy of trying to avoid reductions from the regular subscription to the point or demoralization. We have felt that this was a legal ana proper thing to do, but in order to make assurance aouniy sure we iook me matter up through our attorney, Frederick R. Kellogg, with the Department of Justice In Washington. An attorney waa as signed by the department to make a careful examination of all of our contracts and plana We turned over all records and everything connected with the operation of the Clearing House, and we re ceived assurances that there was nothing that transgressed any law either in letter or In spirit.

I think we have a right to feel that we have done everything that law-abiding citizens could do. first to find out what the law was. and secondly, to carefully follow It. And the Government Has at ail timea hd the most direct evidence both of our desire and of our Intention to do these two things. Help for tha Gagondla Family.

He gazed about three minutes, when a fat policeman came up and poked "And you are positive that the woman you took on these automobile trips with your employer was Mrs. Gambler?

Conservation for Polityholders Decisively Exemplified in the Postal Life Insurance Company Conservation of Health THE POSTAL LIFE INSURANCE COM-PANY. the pioneer in insurance conservation, announces with much pleasure that it is no longer "the only Company in the world that insures lives and guards them against disease." One of its older competitors has now entered the field of Health Conservation among policyholders. Tor two years the present Health Bureau of the POSTAL Company has been emphasizing the enormous facilities latent among the life companies for disease prevention and for the physical betterment of policyholders, with the resulting prolongation of their lives.

The extension of such activities, to a company having over 500,000 policyholders marks an epoch in the social progress of this country, and should have the approbation and support of all enlightened citizens. It is to be hoped that the company referred to, and all other companies, will eventually practice Health Conservation in the comprehensive form successfully inaugurated and conducted by the Health Bureau of the Postal Life, which includes the privilege, optional with policyholders, of a free medical examination once a year. Those who are interested In health preservation should write for free Health Bulletins and literature, especially the pamphlet AMERICAN LIFE-WASTE, which shows the possibilities of disease prevention and the tremendous cost of individual and National neglect. Conservation of Money NO Company can go as far as the POSTAL in its conservation plans, because of the principles on which it is founded and operated. Distinctive forms of economy permeate every department of the institution.

Its. nen-agency methods, briefly noted below, are proving of unusual public interest. Its personnel and working machinery is integrated at-its Home Office Building. 35 Nassau Street, It has no "Field Force." or "Branch and none of the multiplicity of field expenses which constitute such a heavy drain on other companies. It sells insurance at standard rates and with standard reserves, direct to the consumer.

Its policies contain the Standard Provisions proposed by Insurance Superintendents throughout the country. They are liberalized by the POSTAL'S Non-Agency features, and formally and officially approved by Superintendent Hotchkiss of the New York State Insurance Department. Its policyholders receive the first ytat 'Initial Non-Agency Savings" as dividends, deducted from the premium if desired, and equivalent to the usual first year agency commission, and each subsequent year a Guaranteed Dividend of 9H of the premium, derived from a saving of the usual renewal commissions and other agency charges. The POSTAL is a radical Company. It has gone to the root of the problem of life Insurance Expense, and solved it.

Furthermore, it does not forget it policyholders after their entrance into the Company. It assists them to attain those. essentials upon which civic well-being and National progress depend sound health and financial economy. A personal call upon the Company, or an inquiry, through the POSTAL'S only Agent, the United States Mail, giving fall name and date of birth, will bring complete information regarding conservation in life Insurance, sought for in the Hughes Investigation and now carried to a successful and logical result by the POSTAL; Mb Aiirtss POSTAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, SS Nassau Street, New York rtspmmm to inquiries, no gents mrm sent by, thm Company it mnxployt no mgrntt for mny purpose.
