(#3) ##################################################<br /> <br /> Report of the Committee of Management.<br /> —cocº-<br /> THE Committee have much pleasure in laying the Report for<br /> 1898 before the members of the Society. They are happy to<br /> state that the Society is in a sound and healthy position,<br /> financially and otherwise. During the past year another £100<br /> has been invested on capital account, bringing the total up to<br /> £690, as will be seen in the accounts on page 19. The<br /> Committee, however, still feel the want of sufficient funds to<br /> carry out many important requirements for the benefit of<br /> authors, but are glad to be able to report that the growth of the<br /> Society in this respect, though slow, is still sure.<br /> During the past year the number of new members elected has<br /> slightly exceeded the number of those elected in the preceding<br /> year; but, as in the last Report, the Committee must point out<br /> that this does not mean a corresponding increase in the number<br /> of members of the Society. There have been, as usual, many<br /> resignations; the Committee have also had to strike out many<br /> names for non-payment of their subscription; there have also<br /> been a considerable number of deaths. The total amount of<br /> resignations and erasions for non-payment is 120, and of deaths<br /> ten; so that the nett increase in the members of the Society is<br /> about 60.<br /> With regard to the first two (resignations and erasions) the<br /> Committee would like to put strongly before their members<br /> that there are certain things that the Society cannot do, and<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#4) ##################################################<br /> <br /> ( 4 )<br /> further, that they cannot give the same official support to those<br /> who join only when they are in difficulty as to older members<br /> since it is necessary for them to consider, in taking legal steps<br /> and incurring other expenditure, the claims of those who have<br /> been the Society&#039;s supporters for many years. It is owing to<br /> these reasons that a great many resignations and erasions have<br /> occurred. With regard to the third (deaths), it is with feelings,<br /> of sincere regret that the Committee have to report during<br /> the past year the deaths of some of their oldest members and<br /> strongest supporters. Amongst these are the following: The<br /> Rev. Canon Bell, D.D., William Black, the Earl of Desart,<br /> Mrs. Haweis, Mrs. Lynn Linton, James Payn.<br /> THE COMMITTEE.<br /> Under the constitution of the Society, Sir Walter Besant,<br /> Mr. J. M. Lely, and Sir A. C. Mackenzie resigned from the<br /> Committee at the commencement of the year in due rotation.<br /> Sir Walter Besant and Mr. Lely presented their names for<br /> re-election, and were re-elected in due course. Mr. Scott Keltie<br /> was elected to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of<br /> Sir A. C. Mackenzie from the Committee.<br /> Sir W. Martin Conway was unanimously elected Chairman of<br /> the Committee for the year.<br /> CORPORATE BODIES.<br /> As on sundry occasions it had been stated to the Committee<br /> that corporate bodies were unable to join the Society in their<br /> corporate capacity, the following resolution was unanimously<br /> passed at the meeting of the Committee held on June 24th :<br /> “It was resolved that, if it was thought advisable, the<br /> Committee would elect the Chairman or other officer of any<br /> corporate association as a member of the Author&#039;s Society, to<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#5) ##################################################<br /> <br /> ( 5 )<br /> represent such association, on payment of two guineas per<br /> annum on behalf of such association. The Chairman or other<br /> officer thus elected would be entitled to all the benefits of the<br /> Society for the publications of the association, and for advice<br /> with regard to the details of the body corporate, but not to<br /> advice on behalf of himself or any individual member of such<br /> association.”<br /> Two or three bodies have already availed themselves of the<br /> arrangement, and it is hoped that it will prove of service to the<br /> Society and to such bodies, as there are many all over the<br /> kingdom that publish works in their corporate capacity.<br /> BILL DEALING WITH PREFERENTIAL CREDITORS IN<br /> BANKRUPTCY.<br /> The Committee, during the past three or four years, have<br /> had many complaints that it has been impossible to recover<br /> any money due on authors’ contributions which have been<br /> accepted by magazines and papers that have subsequently gone<br /> into liquidation. (The difficulties of the situation are set forth in<br /> this Report, page 9, under the cases that have been before the<br /> Society.) As the position in many cases reached a very<br /> acute stage, owing to the authors being deprived of the remu-<br /> neration for their work, the Committee decided to draft a Bill<br /> placing authors as contributors to magazines and periodicals<br /> on the basis of preferential creditors. They accordingly in-<br /> structed counsel (Mr. F. B. Palmer, 5, New Square, Lincoln&#039;s<br /> Inn), through their solicitors to draft a short Bill to meet<br /> the case. The thanks of the Society are due to Mr. Palmer,<br /> who drafted the Bill in accordance with instructions, refusing<br /> to take any counsel&#039;s fees. The London branch of the Institute<br /> of Journalists, whose chairman (Mr. a Beckett) is a member<br /> of the Committee of the Society, gave their strong adherence<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#6) ##################################################<br /> <br /> ( 6 )<br /> to the principles of the Bill, and stated to the Committee that<br /> they were pleased that the matter had been taken in hand. It<br /> was decided to ask Sir J. Willox (through Mr. a Beckett) to<br /> undertake the bringing forward of the Bill. It is understood<br /> that Sir J. Willox has consented to do so next session.<br /> Books ELLERS AND THE DISCOUNT QUESTION.<br /> It will be remembered that in the Report for last year the<br /> Committee went fully into a scheme that was approved by the<br /> Publishers’ Association dealing with this subject, but they<br /> found they were unable to support the scheme, owing to cer-<br /> tain facts contained therein, which were fully set forth in a<br /> report of the sub-committee appointed to deal with the question,<br /> and approved by the Committee. The main objection was<br /> that the working of the scheme resulted in a restraint on the<br /> freedom of trading.<br /> This report considered in detail, and with very full evidence,<br /> the whole position of the bookselling trade.<br /> In the beginning of the current year the Secretary of the<br /> Booksellers’ Association prepared a fresh scheme for the con-<br /> sideration of the Authors’ Society. The sub-committee met on<br /> several occasions and prepared a further report, approving of<br /> the new scheme as submitted, with a few slight modifications<br /> and suggestions. The scheme was printed in the July number<br /> of the Author. After the booksellers had received and con-<br /> sidered the scheme with the Society&#039;s suggestions, the matter<br /> was laid before the publishers, and a meeting was held in the<br /> beginning of August, between a very influential deputation of<br /> booksellers and a committee of publishers. The booksellers<br /> present unanimously supported the proposed arrangement. The<br /> Committee of the Society were asked to attend, but owing to the<br /> date fixed were unable to send a representative. They, however,<br /> with the full consent of the publishers, requested the Secretary<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#7) ##################################################<br /> <br /> ( 7 )<br /> to be present, in order to put forward the Society&#039;s view, and to<br /> learn what steps were to be taken for the benefit of the trade<br /> in the future. The meeting was held at Stationers&#039; Hall. It<br /> was decided by all parties present that no report should be<br /> printed. It is only necessary to state that the booksellers<br /> were enthusiastic, and unanimously in support of the scheme;<br /> that they represented, with the exception of one or two discount<br /> booksellers in London, the whole book trade all over England;<br /> that the publishers were by no means unanimous, raising<br /> considerable opposition to adopting any new method for the<br /> distribution of books. Although they stated their willingness<br /> to assist the retail trade, there was an unwillingness to disturb<br /> the ruling methods of business.<br /> No doubt in the near future there will be some fresh develop-<br /> ments, and the publishers will explain fully their objections.<br /> PUBLISHERS&#039; AGREEMENTs.<br /> It appears from the report of the meeting of the Publishers&#039;<br /> Association in the Publishers&#039; Circular, that one of the first works<br /> taken in hand by that association was the drafting of agree-<br /> ments between author and publisher. These agreements were<br /> laid before counsel, Mr. J. Walton, Q.C., M.P., and Mr. Ingpen,<br /> and settled by them.<br /> The Secretary of the Society on hearing of these agreements,<br /> wrote to the chairman of the Publishers&#039; Association, asking<br /> if he would kindly forward copies when settled for criticism<br /> in the Author. This the chairman very kindly consented to do.<br /> When the agreements came to hand the Secretary criticised them<br /> at considerable length, and in considerable detail. His criticism<br /> was approved by the Committee, and printed in the July<br /> number of the Author. The Committee have since decided to<br /> reprint the agreements in pamphlet form, with the Secretary&#039;s<br /> comments, and examples drawn from them. The Committee<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#8) ##################################################<br /> <br /> ( 8 )<br /> would like to impress upon the members of the Society that<br /> the agreements are thoroughly unsatisfactory, and that it would<br /> be good for all members of the Society to study them, together<br /> with the Secretary&#039;s comments, in case any firm of publishers<br /> should submit copies of them for signature. It is a pity that<br /> they should be so unsatisfactory, as the chairman of the Pub-<br /> lishers&#039; Association in his speech states as follows:<br /> “We have got two of the best commercial counsel we could<br /> find to look through them, and see whether the agreements<br /> will hold water legally; whether they express the thing clearly,<br /> and obviate all possibility of dispute; and finally, and not<br /> the least important, whether they are between the parties an<br /> equitable method of arriving at the desired result.”<br /> It is difficult to understand how these agreements can be<br /> considered equitable between the parties, though no doubt from<br /> the publishers&#039; point of view they are admirably drawn<br /> documents.<br /> ADDENDA TO THE METHODS OF PUBLISHING.<br /> Various papers that had appeared in the Author under<br /> the title of “Matters for Consideration,” written by the<br /> Secretary of the Society, have been reprinted in pamphlet form,<br /> entitled “Addenda to the Methods of Publishing.” These<br /> papers contained various difficulties, of which some had not<br /> been noticed in the “Methods of Publishing,” and others had<br /> sprung up since that work was first produced. The book forms<br /> a very useful appendix, and is worthy of the consideration of<br /> those who are not able to apply to the Secretary for informa-<br /> tion on agreements.<br /> ANNUAL DINNER.<br /> The Annual Dinner of the Society took place at the Holborn<br /> Restaurant, on Monday, May 2nd. The Bishop of London<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#9) ##################################################<br /> <br /> ( 9 )<br /> took the chair, and there were about two hundred members of<br /> the society and guests present.<br /> A soirée was held subsequently in one of the salons, and after<br /> a very pleasant evening the members and guests separated.<br /> A full account of the speeches has been printed in the June<br /> number of the Author.<br /> MAGAZINES IN LIQUIDATION.<br /> In another part of the Report, the Committee state that they<br /> have a Bill in preparation dealing with the question of making<br /> contributors to magazines preferential creditors in liquidation<br /> or bankruptcy proceedings. The reason they have taken this<br /> matter-up strongly is that during the past year there have been<br /> four or five cases of papers or magazines in liquidation. In<br /> each case many members of the Society have been involved.<br /> Although the Secretary and the solicitors of the Society have<br /> done their best to obtain the money due, they have been in<br /> nearly every case unsuccessful, owing to the fact that there were<br /> no assets available for distribution among the creditors. It<br /> might be to the advantage of the Society if the Committee put<br /> forward some facts with regard to the method on which some<br /> magazines are conducted.<br /> They are, in some cases, started by an individual with a small<br /> capital, who advertises largely for MSS., or obtains them through<br /> other means. When his capital is nearly expended, the whole<br /> affair is turned into a limited liability company. In the course<br /> of time the limited liability company goes bankrupt, leaving all<br /> the contracts with the authors unfulfilled and large sums due<br /> for payment for past and future work. It may happen that the<br /> originator of the magazine, who has been running the company<br /> as managing director at a salary, then purchases the assets of<br /> the bankruptcy at a small figure, and the magazine is still kept<br /> going with the contributions of the unfortunate author creditors.<br /> To the outside public, who do not happen to have sent in contri-<br /> B<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#10) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 10 )<br /> butions, the paper seems to be still running strongly. The<br /> name is the same ; it is only the proprietors who have altered.<br /> This rapid change of proprietors adds a further difficulty, as<br /> it is almost impossible to ascertain which proprietor is<br /> liable for which contract. Accordingly a further batch of<br /> contributors are deceived. There is another device which<br /> suggests itself to the ingenious proprietor, when he has turned<br /> the magazine again into a company, namely, the issue of deben-<br /> tures. The debenture holders are those who, interested in the<br /> circulation, and aware of the financial position, protect them-<br /> selves to the disadvantage of the contributors. The only thing<br /> that can be done under these circumstances is to drive the<br /> magazine into bankruptcy, and, if possible, off the market<br /> entirely. This may be a very strong measure, and it may, in<br /> one or two cases, hurt the authors that happen to be creditors,<br /> but it prevents a large number of members of the Society from<br /> again being led into these difficulties. The cases of all the<br /> bankrupt magazines, however, are not as bad as the one<br /> above quoted, although in nearly every case the debenture-holder<br /> is to be met, who, on the sale of the magazine, pockets all the<br /> assets, leaving none for the unfortunate creditors. Members<br /> of the Society cannot be too careful with what magazines<br /> they deal, and to secure prompt payment from those that<br /> are not absolutely trustworthy. In some cases, where the<br /> matter has been put into the Secretary&#039;s hands at once, payment<br /> has been secured before the final crash. As a general rule, the<br /> Secretary is cognizant of the financial position of magazines,<br /> and can advise authors as to whether it is worth their while to<br /> take stringent measures or not.<br /> ADVISORY WORK AND LEGAL CASEs.<br /> The advisory work of the Society has been very heavy during<br /> the past year, and shows a considerable increase on that of the<br /> previous year. The Committee are always glad to see members<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#11) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 11 )<br /> make full use of the Society; though still, no doubt, there are<br /> many members who would profit considerably if they used the<br /> Society more. Prevention is always better than cure. With<br /> regard to the cases taken up during the past year (by cases are<br /> meant those questions in which the Secretary interposes between<br /> the publisher or editor and the author), the number taken in<br /> hand shows an increase. The settlement of the cases shows<br /> from nearly all points a satisfactory result. In all there have<br /> been 110 cases before the Society. Of these eight were<br /> for infringement of copyright, and the Society has had very<br /> little difficulty in settling them, although in three or four<br /> the Secretary had to go so far as to threaten to place the matters<br /> in the hands of the Society&#039;s solicitors, and in two cases had<br /> actually to do so. It is sometimes the principle of the offender<br /> to try and brazen out the infringement by making one excuse or<br /> another, but when he sees that the Society is in earnest, the<br /> matter is generally easily arranged. Members should, therefore,<br /> always be prepared to go to the Courts, should the Secretary or<br /> the Society’s solicitors advise such a course. Fifty cases have<br /> been before the Society in which money has not been paid when<br /> due. In about forty of these cases it has been possible for<br /> the Secretary to obtain the amount by writing a letter, or,<br /> in case the first letter obtains no reply, threatening to put the<br /> matter in the solicitors’ hands. In one or two cases the Society<br /> has been able, after putting the matter in the solicitors’ hands,<br /> to enforce payment; in the other cases payment has not been<br /> made owing to the fact that the magazine is in a bankrupt<br /> position. Bankruptcy, as has been pointed out, is, in nearly<br /> every case, disastrous to contributors. It is quite the excep-<br /> tion if a dividend is paid. With regard to both the infringe-<br /> ment of copyright and the application for money due, if<br /> the matter has been placed in the solicitors’ hands, it has<br /> been so placed with the consent of the Committee, and,<br /> as far as the law expenses are concerned, without cost to<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#12) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 12 )<br /> the member. The Committee would be glad to be able to<br /> report that the Society is so strong financially that it could take<br /> up all law cases which are backed with the support of its<br /> solicitors or counsel on behalf of its members as a matter of<br /> course; but, though it takes up many during the year, it is not<br /> always able to take up every question. The Committee, during<br /> the past year, have issued to those members whose cases they<br /> have taken up, a printed form of guarantee. The following is a<br /> copy of it:<br /> To THE SECRETARY,<br /> INCORPORATED SOCIETY OF AUTHORS,<br /> 4, Portugal Street, W.C.<br /> 1. I undertake to come to no settlement of the case between<br /> myself and ....................................... nor to withdraw from<br /> any proceedings which the Society&#039;s Solicitors may institute on<br /> my behalf without the concurrence of the Society&#039;s Solicitors,<br /> and that all negotiations shall be carried on through the Society&#039;s<br /> Solicitors or Secretary.<br /> 2. I will give the Society or its Solicitors the best assistance<br /> that is in my power to carry the proceedings to a successful<br /> conclusion.<br /> 3. Should the proceedings fail through any neglect or<br /> default on my part, I undertake to become responsible for all<br /> the costs of the action.<br /> (Signed) .......................................<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#13) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 13 )<br /> It is necessary, for the protection of the Society, that this<br /> guarantee should be signed.<br /> During the past year there have been five cases of bankruptcy<br /> in which the solicitors of the Society have carried through the<br /> claims of the various members. Unfortunately, only in one<br /> case was there any dividend paid, and in that case a very small<br /> one. -<br /> The Committee are glad to report that the Roxburghe Press<br /> has now ceased to exist, being one of the bankrupt companies.<br /> There have been twenty-three cases in which the subject in<br /> dispute has been publishers’ accounts. Either the accounts have<br /> not been rendered at the proper time, or when rendered have<br /> not been sufficiently in detail, or have been inaccurate, and thus<br /> necessitated careful inspection. In the cases where accounts<br /> have not been rendered, the Secretary has always been able to<br /> obtain them at once. Only in one case have the Committee<br /> felt the necessity of sending in an accountant to check the<br /> vouchers. In three other cases they have had to obtain a<br /> full accountant&#039;s report of the items sent in, with a view<br /> of taking further steps if necessary. Owing to the report<br /> being satisfactory, these further steps have, however, proved<br /> unnecessary. On two occasions a publisher refused to show<br /> his accounts and vouchers and books on the demand of the<br /> Society. The Society at once took up the matter, and were pre-<br /> pared to carry the question into Court, as the Committee<br /> consider it one of the gravest importance. In both these cases,<br /> however, the authors concerned were officials holding positions<br /> out of England, and they were unable in consequence to support<br /> the Society in bringing an action on their behalf. The Com-<br /> mittee regret exceedingly that they had therefore to abandon<br /> these two cases, but they beg to state to the members that if any<br /> case comes before the Society with no other issues involved,<br /> except the one of a publisher refusing to produce his books and<br /> vouch his accounts in full, they will carry that case right<br /> C<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#14) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 14 )<br /> through the Courts, as it is a point of vital principle that has<br /> been maintained by the Society ever since its foundation. In all<br /> other previous cases where the Society has employed its<br /> accountant, it has found publishers willing and ready to vouch<br /> their accounts in detail. The mere fact of a publisher refusing<br /> to do so would lead any reasonable person to draw the deduction<br /> that they were unable to do so, an inference which must be<br /> harmful to any publishing house. -<br /> In twenty-eight cases the Society have had to apply for the<br /> recovery of MSS. from editors or publishers, and in sixteen<br /> cases they have been successful. The Committee would like to<br /> point out the difficulty with regard to this portion of the work<br /> of the Society. In many cases authors have no acknowledge-<br /> ment whatever of the MSS. having been received, but without<br /> such acknowledgement it is impossible to prove anything satis-<br /> factorily. If an author could show that the MS. has reached<br /> the office, he must also be able to show that it has reached the<br /> hands of some responsible party in the office, and finally he must<br /> show that the persons dealing with the MSS. have been guilty<br /> of neglect. These points are very difficult for an author<br /> to prove ; though some members of the Society seem to think<br /> that under any circumstances the editors or publishers are<br /> responsible from the moment that the author has inserted the<br /> MS. in the Post Office, and one member went even so far as to<br /> state that as he had not heard from the editor he might draw<br /> the deduction that the MS. had been accepted.<br /> The Secretary has at all times (with one exception) met with<br /> the utmost courtesy and consideration from editors and<br /> publishers. They have been ready to make search for the<br /> MSS., and return them when found; but the Committee would<br /> like to state that they cannot, and will not, uphold the ease<br /> of members who bring the Society into discredit by making<br /> discourteous and impossible demands, and using the Society&#039;s<br /> name in such an issue.<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#15) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 15 )<br /> It has come to the notice of the Committee that writers, who<br /> are not members of the Society, have also used the Society&#039;s<br /> name as a threat to editors and publishers. While the Com-<br /> mittee strongly disapprove of members using the name of the<br /> Society in an unauthorised manner, they cannot too fully<br /> express their resentment at those who are not members of the<br /> Society making use of the Society&#039;s name. It brings odium on<br /> the work of the Society, and tends to lessen its power and effect<br /> in upholding the cause of authors generally. The Committee<br /> must also point out, as they have done in another part of the<br /> Report, that they do not feel themselves bound to give the same<br /> support to those who join only when in difficulty as to their old<br /> members.<br /> COPYRIGHT LAW REFORM.<br /> The action of the Committee with regard to the Consolidating<br /> and Amending Bill of the Copyright Association, as set forth<br /> in last year&#039;s Report, has been fully justified by the results.<br /> The Chairman of the Copyright Association, it will be remem-<br /> bered, asked the Society to assist them with the Bill, with a<br /> view to bringing it before the Houses of Parliament. The<br /> Committee stated in reply that they were very willing to do<br /> their utmost in assisting in the Consolidation and Amendment<br /> of Copyright, but they thought the time was inadvisable for<br /> taking such steps; that it would be impossible to pass a full<br /> Consolidating and Amending Bill, and that they ought not<br /> to take further action until the Society&#039;s short Amending Bill<br /> had passed both Houses; that the bringing forward of such<br /> a Consolidating and Amending Bill would put off Copyright<br /> legislation for an indefinite period. At the commencement of<br /> this year the Copyright Association&#039;s Bill was placed in Lord<br /> Herschell&#039;s hands, and was pushed to a second reading through<br /> the House of Lords at the same time as the Society&#039;s Amending<br /> Bill. The members of the Society will call to mind the fac<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#16) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 16 )<br /> that the Society&#039;s Bill was being piloted by Lord Monkswell,<br /> and had already passed the second reading at the former Session.<br /> Both Bills were referred to a Committee of the House of Lords.<br /> Considerable evidence from various quarters was given. The<br /> Secretary of the Society appeared and gave evidence on behalf<br /> of the Committee, setting forward their view of the position.<br /> This evidence has been printed in the Author and other papers.<br /> The Committee of the Society would like to say that in its final<br /> state the Copyright Amendment Bill is, on the whole, satis-<br /> factory as far as literary property is concerned, though there<br /> are certain points which they would like to see altered.<br /> The Committee will do their utmost to push forward Copy-<br /> right Law Reform and Amendment, but they regret that,<br /> owing to the course which the Copyright Association have<br /> thought fit to adopt, it appears that the consolidation of the<br /> law has been indefinitely postponed.<br /> It will be impossible to pass a full Consolidating and Amend<br /> ing Act in the present state of public business, and any small<br /> amendments that may now be put forward can always be put<br /> aside on the excuse that the big Bill is standing in the way.<br /> It is to be regretted, therefore, that with all the Committee&#039;s<br /> efforts amendment of the law has been impossible.<br /> GERMAN COPYRIGHT.<br /> In the spring of the year a telegram appeared in the Times<br /> announcing the withdrawal of Germany from the Anglo-German<br /> Convention for the protection of Authors’ copyright. The<br /> telegram referred to those treaties existing between Germany,<br /> Prussia, and England prior to the Berne Convention.<br /> Questions have arisen from time to time during the past few<br /> years as to how far these prior treaties had any effect on the<br /> articles existing between the countries under the Berne Con-<br /> vention. As stated in the telegram, these treaties have lost<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#17) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 17 )<br /> their legal force in Great Britain, and have now been declared<br /> mull and void by the withdrawal of Germany. There is, how-<br /> ever, one question, how far this withdrawal might have an<br /> effect on books published under these treaties prior to the<br /> Berne Convention, whether the withdrawal is retrospective, and<br /> in what way it may bear upon past publications. The result<br /> of an inquiry made by the Secretary at the Foreign Office was<br /> to the effect that the notice published by Germany did not<br /> in any way interfere with the Berne Convention, but merely<br /> referred to treaties prior to that Convention, the benefit of<br /> which had lapsed in both countries. A full statement of the<br /> German document was made in the April number of the<br /> Author.<br /> A further paper was received from the Secretary of State<br /> for Foreign Affairs, who had received it from the German<br /> Ambassador, relative to the position of British authors in<br /> Germany. It was printed in the June number of the Author.<br /> CANADIAN COPYRIGHT.<br /> During the past year the Committee have been watching very<br /> closely the interests of authors with regard to any proposed<br /> legislation on the subject of Copyright in Canada, but the<br /> matter is not at present ripe for any public statement.<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p.

This makes a total of invested moneys as follows:<br /> £230 Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, 34% £343 17 0<br /> £240 Staffordshire 3.4% County Stock ... 247 1() ()<br /> £89 15s. 6d. Consols 23% - - - - - - - - - 99 2 ()<br /> £690 9 ()<br /> the present price of which, as will be seen by the statement,<br /> altogether amounts to £6909s. Of this between £400 and £450<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#20) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 20 )<br /> was left to the Society in a legacy, and the remainder represents<br /> capitalised life membership fees.<br /> The annual subscriptions to the Society show the satisfactory<br /> increase of £55 on the previous year. Some seventy or eighty<br /> members have not yet paid for last year. Of the annual subscrip-<br /> tions, 450, a large number are paid by banker&#039;s orders. It is much<br /> more convenient both for the member and for the Society if this<br /> arrangement could always be carried out. It is earnestly hoped<br /> that members will pay by this means if they possibly can, as the<br /> circularisation of members for non-payment is a great expense<br /> to the Society. The Committee regret to state that about £50<br /> is annually lost to the Society by unpaid subscriptions.<br /> The issuing of circulars and the printing of them (which is<br /> included under “Stationery’’) make the charge under that head<br /> a heavy one. The circulars issued during the year are for<br /> the General Meeting, the Dinner, and the circulars for non-<br /> payment.<br /> The legal expenses are small during the present year for this<br /> reason, that in 1897 nearly the whole of the outstanding<br /> solicitors’ charges were paid, and during the present year the<br /> Society has received no further account. The item being so<br /> small does not mean, however, that the work of the Society in<br /> this branch has at all decreased. On the contrary; if anything,<br /> it has risen.<br /> The outstanding liabilities of the Society may be reckoned as<br /> amounting to a total of about £500, expenses incurred for<br /> Awthor, Solicitors, and Stationery charges. These may be<br /> looked upon as current expenses, but the amount is higher than<br /> the Committee would like. It will be reduced gradually. The<br /> Committee trust that the members of the Society will feel their<br /> position secure on the ground that against this £500 they have<br /> £690 invested capital, so that practically the Society is in a<br /> sound financial state; but of course an intact capital of at least<br /> £500 would be far more satisfactory.<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p.

During<br /> 1898 the Society has published “The Addenda to the Methods<br /> of Publishing,” by G. Herbert Thring.

S.<br /> STAMP YOUR AGREEMENTS.–Members are most URGENTLY<br /> warned not to neglect stamping their agreements immediately<br /> after signature. If this precaution is neglected for two weeks,<br /> a fine of £10 must be paid before the agreement can be used<br /> as a legal document. In almost every case brought to the<br /> Secretary the agreement, or the letter which serves for one, is<br /> without the stamp. The author may be assured that the other<br /> party to the agreement never neglects this simple precaution.<br /> The Society, to save trouble, undertakes to get all the agree-<br /> ments of members stamped for them at no expense to themselves<br /> except the cost of the stamp.<br /> ASCERTAIN WHAT A PROPOSED AGREEMENT GIVES TO<br /> BOTH SIDES BEFORE SIGNING IT-Remember that an arrange-<br /> ment as to a joint venture in any other kind of business whatever<br /> would be instantly refused should either party refuse to show the<br /> books or to let it be known what share he reserved for himself.<br /> LITERARY AGENTS.–Be very careful. Members cannot be<br /> too careful as to the person whom they appoint as their agent.<br /> They place their property almost unreservedly in his hands.<br /> Their only safety is in consulting the Society, or some friend<br /> who has had personal experience of the agent.<br /> MEMBERs of the Society are earnestly desired to make the<br /> following warnings as widely known as possible. They are<br /> based on the experience of many years&#039; work upon the dangers<br /> to which literary property is exposed —<br /> (1.) NEVER to sign any agreement, of which the alleged cost<br /> of production forms an integral part, until the figures<br /> have been proved. -<br /> (2.) NEVER to enter into any correspondence with publishers,<br /> especially with those who advertise for MSS., who are<br /> not recommended by experienced friends or by this<br /> Society. -<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#24) #################################################<br /> <br /> ( 24 )<br /> (3) NEVER, on any account whatever, to bind themselves<br /> down to any publisher for future work.<br /> (4.) NEVER to accept any proposal of royalty until they have<br /> ascertained what the agreement, worked out on both<br /> a small and a large sale, will give to the author and<br /> what to the publisher.<br /> (5.) NEVER to accept any pecuniary risk or responsibility<br /> whatever without advice.<br /> (6.) NEVER, when a MS. has been refused by respectable<br /> houses, to pay others, whatever promises they may put<br /> forward, for the production of the work.<br /> (7.) NEVER to sign away foreign, which include American,<br /> rights, but to keep them by special clause. To refuse<br /> to sign any agreement containing a clause which<br /> reserves them for the publisher. If the publisher<br /> insists, take away the MS. and offer it to another.<br /> (8.) NEVER to sign any paper, either agreement or receipt,<br /> which gives away copyright, without advice.<br /> (9.) To keep control over the advertisements, if they affect<br /> the returns, by clause in the agreement. To reserve a<br /> veto. If ignorant of the subject, to make the Society<br /> their adviser.<br /> (10.) NEVER to forget that publishing is a business, like any<br /> other business, totally unconnected with philanthropy,<br /> charity, or pure love of literature.<br /> HOW TO USE THE SOCIETY.<br /> 1. Every member has a right to advice upon his agreements,<br /> his choice of a publisher, or any dispute arising in the conduct<br /> of his business or the administration of his property. If the<br /> advice sought is such as can be given best by a solicitor, the<br /> member has a right to an opinion from the Society&#039;s solicitors.<br /> <br /> <br /> ## p. (#25) #################################################<br /> <br /> 25 )<br /> If the case is such that counsel&#039;s opinion is desirable, the Com-<br /> mittee will obtain for him counsel&#039;s opinion. All this without<br /> any cost to the member.<br /> 2. Remember that questions connected with copyright and<br /> publishers&#039; agreements are not generally within the experience<br /> of ordinary solicitors. Therefore do not scruple to use the<br /> Society first—our solicitors are continually engaged upon such<br /> questions for us.<br /> 3. Send to the office copies of past agreements and past<br /> accounts, with the loan of the books represented. This is in<br /> order to ascertain what has been the nature of your agreements<br /> and the results to author and publisher respectively so far. The<br /> Secretary will always be glad to have any agreements, new or<br /> old, for inspection and note. The information thus obtained<br /> may prove invaluable.<br /> 4. If the examination of your previous business transactions<br /> by the Secretary proves unfavourable, you should take advice as<br /> to a change of publishers.<br /> 5. Before signing any agreement whatever, send the proposed<br /> form to the Society for examination. -<br /> 6. The Society is acquainted with the methods, and—in the<br /> case of fraudulent houses—the tricks of every publishing firm<br /> in the country. Remember that there are certain houses which<br /> live entirely by trickery.<br /> 7. Remember always that in belonging to the Society you<br /> are fighting the battles of other writers, even if you are reaping<br /> no benefit to yourself, and that you are advancing the best<br /> interests of literature in promoting the independence of the<br /> writer.<br /> 8.
