Following him was Prof Sightner Wit
mer, of the University OF Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia. who IS one Of the youngest
and most brilliant teachers in the coun-
try and successful In laboratory work.
His views were largely in accord with
those of Prof. Royce which he supple
mented by further analysis and exegesis
of the newer psychology. The fact that
the new psychology shows problems un-
touched before by students opens up new,
strange realms for exploration was en-
phasized by Mr. Wilmer. 1T is not the
province of science to clear up things: it
reveals far more than it explains.
Speaking OF the differences existing be-
tween the old and new psychoulogy. he
said:
"Older psychology had an air of infal-
libility-the new does not assume this.
Go into the field of laboratories. you
know nothing"
The speaker touched upon the failure
of directors of laboratories TO fill mod
ern needs; the prevalence of traditional
psychology. and noted the changes, the
advance made today in the establish
ment of disciolinarian schools and
schools for defective children which he
counted a great result.
''The new psychology is awake to the
really important vital problems involved
in public education and we now have a
pedagogy animated through and through
by the psychological spirI: OF our COM
missioners of education, Inc president of

tors of the country, were arranged in a

in psychological inquiry.
The president of the council. Charles De
Garmo, celebrated as the great advocate
Of Herbartian philosophy in the United
States, opened the session with a short
address. in which he set forth the va
rious aspects of psychology; the three es-
sential phases to be covered to clear and
open up the path.
I'VE should first obtain view of civili-
zation," said Prof. De Garmo; I'VE should
know whence we came. whittier we are
going. should have an understanding of
society. Secondly. we should know the
products of civilization, the studies. the
branches of instruction, the instruments
for the education of children Thirdly.
we should know the being we are trying
TO educate. the child, the man or wo-
man"
Passing briefly over the psychology of
philosophy. its theological and historical
development. President De Garmo intro
duced Prof. Josiah Royce, of Harvard
University, the most eminent teacher of
philosophy In the United States who
compared the various aspects of the old
psychology TO the new. cleared up the
old ideas and opened new vista of hope
to the college student
The new psychology is not introspect-
i've: il is experimental" said he 1T

of the laboratory. 1t is no ineffable mys-
terry: it is the whole collection of current
researches which are adding TO our

Theoretical insight into the fundamental

knowledge is still in its infancy The
present psychological situation is un-
healthy; if we do not better it We shall
suffer"

Information was received by Gen. Gree
ly at the War Department yesterday IN
timating that the cable by way of Kings
ton is working direct from Havana to
Madrid, and that English operators are
responsible for the same
1t is not learned from what source the
information is obtained but it is never
theless given full credence and action
will be accordingly taken to insure
prompt suspension Of this service.
The informant stated that the operators
who are responsible for the act are now
at Kingston.
1t seems that before leaving Santiago
they made use of electrical appliances
and connected the Kingston cable with
the telegraph line running overland to
Gen. Blanco's palace at Havana. They
then left on the British men-of-war Alert
and Pallas, with other British refugees
from Santiago to Kingston
As a result Gen Blanco now has bet
ter cable service than Gen. Shafter.
Blanco. as stated, can cable direct to
the Queen Regent Shafter has to send
his messages by either courier or tele-
phone to Siboney or Playa del Este for
transmission.
The American cable stations are at
these places and from them three lines
of wire run direct to the trenches before
Santiago, but they cannot give the SER
vice that direct line of wire would SUD-
ply.
The probability is that a gunboat will
be sent to cut the Kingston wire. just
