MUSICIAN SUES PUBLISHERS
Declares Criticism In Heading Wows
papers Injured Reputation as Leader.
ItKADtN'O, Dec. 17. Aliening that crit
icism of a concert conducted by him, and.
at which Francis MacMlllan, of Xcw
Torlc. well-known violinist, was the prin
cipal attraction, was published for the
express purpose of Injuring htm with tho
muslc-lovlns public of Heading, Prof.
George D. Ilaage, well-known local Im
presario, has Instituted suit against the
Heading Printing Company, owners ot
the News-Times, morning, and tho Tele
gram, evening, local newspapers, asking
$10,000 damages.
In his declaration, the plaintiff sets
forth that during the season of 1913-14, a
certain disagreement arose, between him
self and the management of, the news
papers because he did not advertise as
attentively with them as In rrra.1 ri8ws'
papers. ,;
It is averred fin-ther that the plaintiff
then discontinued advertising In. the
News-Times andvTefee'rani. He did not
furnish the papers with the usuat compli
mentary tickets for the MacMlllan con
ceit on December 80.
The plaintiff avers that no person rep
resenting the News-Times and Telegram
-was at the concert, and the criticism pub
lished was not an honest estimate or a
critic's judgment of the performance, but
' had for its purpose the "wanton and
malicious Intent to Injur? and discredit,
.not only the performer, but the plaintiff,
under whose management the perform
ance was held."
