Seizure of Mr Whistler’s Pirated Writings
This pirated collection of letters, writings, &c., “New York Herald,” London Edition, March 23, 1890. to whose frustrated publication in this country and America we have already alluded, was seized in Antwerp, at the printers’, on Friday last—the very day of its contracted delivery. The persistent and really desperate speculator in this volume of difficult birth, baffled in his attempt to produce it in London and New York had been tracked to Antwerp by Messrs. Lewis and Lewis; and he was finally brought down by Maître Maeterlinck, the distinguished lawyer of that city.
