Wclssmnuuism,

Mr.. GEO. j. RoMANEs. one OF the most distin-
euished among the English followers OF OAR
win. has undertaken an examination OF Weiss
,,dnnism in series OF essays which have been
collected and published BY the Open Court
Publishing Company (Chcago). The author
OF this volume may be said to stand midway
between the Neo-Darwinians and the Neo-
Lainarckians. The Neo- Darwinians believe
that natural selection has been the only mod
flying influence In the evolution of species.
and that the material for its action has been
only pIasmogenetc variations. i. e. variations
due to admixtures Of germ plasm in acts
OF sexual fertilization. and therefore pres
ont at birth. Tho Neo- Lamarckians. on
the other hand. hold that organic evo-
luton has been effective solely by
means OF the occurrence and preservation
Through inhertance) Of somatogenetio vari-
atoms. I. e.. variations acquired after birth by
the action Of the environment. Mr.. Romanes. as
We have said. occupies q middle position
though he stands somewhat nearer the Neo-
Darwinians, because while he comedies some
power to the Lamarckian factors. and thinks
that some changes In the evolution OF multi
cellular organisms have been duo TO the in
heritance OF somatogenetic characters. no
believes nevertheless that plasmogenetic vari-
atoms have furnished the principal materials
for the action OF natural selection. So
far. therefore. as his personal convic-
tions go. Mr.. Romanes is well quail
fed to act as arbiter between the oppos-
ing theories. and in his criticism OF
Weissmann he evinres the spirit not OF an op-
ponent but OF one who. up to certain point is
willing to De classed as a disciple. 1t is OBJ
vious that such an attitude Of mind has m I'M
portant bearing on the educational value OF
this book. for it offers qua rant 90 that Weiss
8y8t6m nd f.t RI
set forth, thing much needed In English be-
cause coherent idea OF Weissm ami theories
cannot easily be obtained from TRANSACTIONS OF
the lectures and essays. whose production
has covered u considerable number OF years.
We hope. with the help OF Mr.. Romanss, to
state as distinctly and concisely as possible
what Weissmann's theories are and then to
indicate the objections which are here brought
against 1t.

succinctly outlined. WeIssmann's theory OF
heredity is as follows: The whole organiza-
ton OF any multicellular organism is COM
posed OF two entirely different kinds OF cells
namely. the germ cells. or those which have to
do with reproduction. and the somatic cells. or
those which 60 Ito constitute all the other
parts of the organism. Now. the somatic cells
In their aggregations as tissues and organs
may be modified In numberless ways by the
direct action OF the environment as we'll as by
special habits formed during the indlvid-
ual lifetime OF the organism. But although
the notifications thus induced may be and
generally are adapttve-such as the Increased
muscularity caused by the use OF muscles.
practice making perfect where neural adjust
ments are concerned. and so on-in no case can
these so-caled acquired or somatoge etc
characters exercise any influence upon the
germ cells. such that they should reappear in
the next generation as conGenital characters
For according to Weissmann's theory, the
germ cells. as to their Rerminal contents, differ
in kind from tho somatic cells, and have no
other connection or dependence upon them
than that Of deriving from them their food and
lodging.
The germ cells are the receptacles OF what
Weissmanh calls the germ plasm; and this 1t
Is that he supposes to diffcr In kind from all
eHoopiei VI tHe organism.
For the germ plasm he believes to have had it's
origin In the unIcellular organisms and to
have been handed down from them in one
continual stream through all successive gen.
erations OF multicellular organisms. Thus,
for example, suppose that we take a certain
quantum of germ plasm as this occurs In any
individual organism Of to-day A minute por-
ton Of this germ plasm. when mixed with a
minute portion from another individual, goes
to form new individual: thereby. however.
only part OF this minute portion Is con-
sumed: the residue Is stored up In the ger
minal cells OF the new individual in order to
secure that continuity Of the germ plasm
which Weissmann assumes as the necessary
basis OF his whole theory. He furthermore as
sumes that this overplus portion OF germ
plasm which is thus handed over TO the GUS
tody Of the new individual. Is there capable OF
growth or multiplication at the expense OF the
nutrient materials which are supplied to 1t by
the new soma body in which 1t finds itself
located: while In thus growing or multiplying
1t faithfully retains It's highly complex

SOME NEW BooKS


Not oniy Graduates OF Yale but oil American
university mon will welcome volume which
has been Published by the Scribners under The
title OF Moan PORTER a memorial by friends
edited by George 8 Merriam. This Is not q
biography but, as its name indicates. COM
pendium OF contributions from various hands,
which. however. have been woven into con-
secutive narrative. There are several reasons
why educated Americans outside OF his own
college regard tho 0Rure Of Noah Porter with
peculiar interest. During the eighty years
Of his life he witnessed the intellectual move
ment Of the century. and. so far as his own
country was concerned. he bore In 1t a conspic-
nous as we'll as active part. He repre-
sented the old and honorable tradition In
arcordanc. 9TH which the Office Of President
Of college was conferred, not with an eye to
diligence In money getting. but In recognition
OF honorable achievements in some field OF In
tellectual sndeavor. He stood forth. too while
he lived. as the champion OF old-fnshioned
methods OF instruction. and Of the old-fash-
Toned curriculum from which Greek was not
to be disodRed. and thus he kent Yale faithful
to tho old standard OF culture. from which
some New England colleges have shown an in
clination to diverge. For that reason not
few men OF conservative temper. who cherish
the ancient ways. and question whether they
were not moro favorable to sound learning
and mental discipline. conceived a personal
regard for President Porter. and felt when he
departed that they had lost friend.

III.

So much for figures The fact Of real i'm port
ance Is that for the causeS of the growth of
Yale College during Porter's presidency. and
the more signal expansion OF its resources
since, we must look back to tho self-denial
and scholarly devotion of a group OF profess
sors who. under President Woolsey. worked
with uncommon harmony and unity for the
advancement Of sound learning and Christian
faith. or that group Dr. Porter was one. and
1t may be that in the later days OF his presi-
dency he did not quite realize the greatness
which he had 80 largely helped to develop.
Nothing was further from his thought than
any self-laudation or any desire to claim
credit for achievements. The college was
certainly greater than its name. but to DIR.
Porter the name Yale College represented
everything that was dear in education and in
faith. Tho advertising Of educational advan-
iages. the publicity sought for men and for
equipments. ,he competition between great

and finally from the direct evidence given
by De vries that in certain alg@ the con-
stituents OF cellular tissue pass imme-
diately from the maternal ovum to the daugh-
ter organism. We should add that q mass Of

tors in any OF the m ulticellular organisms.

1t only remains TO add that, according TO
Welssmann's theory in Its strictly logical form.
combinations OF germ plasm when once ef-
fected are so stable that they would never
alter except as a result OF entering into new
combinations, In other words no external in
fiuences, or internal processes can ever change
the hereditary nature of any particular mixture
OF germ plasm save and except Its admixture
with some other germ plasm. which being OF a
nature as fully stable unites with tho first In
equal proportions as regards hereditary char
acter 1t would. indeed. be correct to say that
in Weissmann's view any given mass OF germ
plasm does not change even when 1t is mixed
with some other mass-any more. for Instance,
than handful OF sand can be said to change
when 1t is mixed with n handful OF clny.
We arrive then at this curious result No
matter how many generations OF organisms
there may have been and. therefore, no mat
ter how many combinations OF germ plasm
may have taken place to give rise to an exist
Ing population. each existing unit OF germ
plasm must have remained of the same essen
tial nature or constitution as when 1t was first
started in Its immortal career. millions OF
years ago. Or reyerting to the illustration
OF sand and clay. the particles Of each
must always remain the same. no matter
how many admi&tures they may under
go with particles OF other materials,
such as chalk. clay. and so on. But
inasmuch as 1t is an essential-bscsuse a
logical part OF Weissmapn's theory TO assume
such absolute stability or unchang ca bleness
on tho part OF germ plasm. the question
arises and has to be met: What was the
origin OF those differences of character in the
different germ plasms OF multicellular or
Ganisms which first gave rise and still
continue to give rise to congcnital var-
atoms by their mixture one with anotherr
This important question Weissmann answers
by surprising that these differences originally
arose out OF the differences in tho unicellu-
lar organisms which were the ancestors

Of the primitive multicelular organisms

ferent forms OF unicellular organisms orig
inatod as 80 many results OF differences In the
direct action OF the environments Consequent
". according to the theory. all conRenital
variations which now occur In multicellular
organisms are really tho remote results Of
variations that were originally induced In their
unicellular ancestors by the direct action Of
surrounding conditions OF life. That is to say,
the Lamarcklan factors OF use and dlsuse are
operative In the case OF all unicellulsr organ
isms. and only cease to operate upon such as

 NKw YORK, Nov. 9.-Severh sAIIors from the ship L. Shepp went to oommis- sionsr Shields office here to day to com plain of alleged ill.treAtment by the mate of the ship, and on the statements made to him the commissioner issued warrants for the arrest of the ships officers. The ship arrived yesterday from Kobe, Japan. The sailors declare that after the vessel sailed from Yokohoma and was on her way to Kobe the first mate, Joseph Shspp, As- saulted Joseph Bennett, a sailor, while he was at the wheel.
 At Kobe the crew went in a body to the American consul and complained of the mate, but the consul refused to listen to them and said that they could take their choice of going back to the ship or being locked up. They refused to go back and were locked up until the ship sailed, when they were sent on board to complete the voyage. The charges as to what took place on the voyage home are as folloWt:
 On August 25 the mate knocked down 6 sailor named Peterson because he inter- ceded on behalf of Seamen DAhlgren, who had been ordered on duty when sick with inflammation of he lUpgs. On September 10 Carl Stevenson was knocked down and kicked about the head on the poop deck in the presencs of the captain, who told the mate that if he wanted to do that sort of thing he had better take the man forward, as 1t soiled the deck. At another time when the ship was of the cape In driving snow storm one of the sailors was fastened to the pumps from 8 a. m. until midnight for complaining of the food.

MELLO ASKS RECOGNITION.

There is n Strong Undercurrent at
 Rio in Favor of the Insurgents.
 LONDON, Nov. 10.-The Times has this dispatch from Rio:
 On November the insurgents placed three guns on the island of Mocangue. They have daily skirmishes with the gov. ernment troops. The government forts continue to fire on Villeganon Island. The casualties are small.
 Admiral Mello has sent a circular note to the legations asking them to recognize his rights as belligerent and thus decrease the danger to life and property. The lega. tions consider his application premature. There Is, however, strong undercurrent of feeling here In favor of the insurgents. It is thought their success will mean the abolition of militsrism.

 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The democratic members of the ways and means committee of the house had a conference with Score tary Carlisle to-day on the construction of the new tariff bill.
 Messrs. McMillan, Turner, Breckinridge of Arkansas, Bynum and Montgomery were present. The conference lasted some time. It Is generally understood at the treasury department that no material changes will be made in the internal rev. enue schedule, except to increase the duty on whiskey, put duty on crude and re- fined sugar, do away entirely with the bounty on sugar. which this year foots up | nearly $10, 900 900.
 In fact this last item will be omitted, 1t l is said, from the estimates sent to con gress by Secretary Carlisle.

 Statutes.
 To RoNTo, Nov. 9.-An important meet ing of American lumbsrmen who operate largely ia Canadian lumber is being held here. The business is being transacted be- hind closed doors.
 It was learned to night that the most important matter discussed was the pro posed revised United States tariff, which now stands at s1 per l 900 on pine lumber and 8 on sprucs.
 All expressed the opinion that If con- certed action was not taken immediately congress would insist upon the admission of lumber free of any duty. The eff ct of such legislation would force them to con- fine their interests wholly in Canada. Ii was slso decided to restrict the output for the coming season.
