GARNER TALKS OF SIMlANS
Has Discovered Number of sounds
to which Monkeys At
tach Meaning.

LONDON, Sept. 1O.-tSpecial Cablegram
to the Bee PROF. Garner, the American
naturalist, who is we'll known in
connection with his studies of monkey
language, is leaving Liverpool for West
Africa with the intention of renewing his
observations in the forest primeval with
the aid of a gramophone. The story of
Prof. Gamers adventures is full of ro-
nance and strange incident. He was first
attracted to the study of the Simlan
tongue by the strange conduct of some mon
keys who were Gagged with savage red
nosed baboon, and he determined to try
to interpret the sounds they uttered, From
that time he spent much pains and money
on the subject and has passed many soli-
tary hours in the African jungle, ensconsed
in an iron-latticed cage.
He claims to have obtained some valuable
scientific results and to have established
the fact that monkeys communicate by
words, not by signs, In letter to his
brother at Sydney recently he wrote:
Here are few spelt phonetically
'Achru,' meaning water, rain cold; kukcha,
meaning sun, fire, warmth, etc; goshku,
meaning food, the act of eating etc. You
will see that this is a very primitive lam
guage; there are perhaps not more than
twenty or thirty words in it that l have
rot already got"
He has been studying the monkeys in
Cross menagerie and declares that there
is wide difference between animals in
captivity and those in the forest. There
is no common language he states, and there
are as many varieties of the Simian tongue
as there are of the human tongue.

M. WITTE VISITS THE CAPITAL
Russian Envoy spends Day I'm WASH
inEtOn before Sailing for
Home.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.-M witte and
Baron Rosen, the Russian peace plenipo-
tentiares, accompanied by five members OF
the formers suite, spent Sunday in Wash
ngton They arrived here at an early hour
this morning and spent the entire day
visiting the historic points in and about
the city and left again late this afternoon
for New York, from which place NJ. Witte
will sail for Hamburg next Tuesday. While
here they were in charge of Acting Secre-
tary Loomis of the State department and
Major Charles McCawey of the marine
corps, who. at the special request OF the
president, acted their escorts to the
various places visited. Beginning at the
White House the party in turn went 20 the
Russian embassy, the capitol. the congress
sional library. Mount Vernon, Arlington
and Rock Creek park.
AS he left for New York NJ. Witte ex-
pressed TO Mr.. Loomis his keen apprecia o.
tion OF the pleasure which his brief stay in
the American capital had given him. II
had been, he said very interesting and very
instructive, and he had been we'll repaid for
the trip. The unique character OF Wash
ington, in that It was made up largely OF
government buildings and private resi-
dences. impressed him very much, and he
frequently made reference to the many
beautiful parks with their wealth OF trees
and flowers. The weather was very pleas
ant throughout the day.

GRANTS STUDENTS DEMANDS
CEar Publishes Ukase Giving
Autonomy 10 the Uni-
yRrsftiea

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. u.-An imperial
ukase is published this morning granting a
liberal measure OF autonomy TO the univer-
stiles pending the elaboration OF permanent
regulations along the same lines. This Is
considered here as insuring the opening OF
the universities September IA and the re-
sumption OF the educational life OF Russia,
which. has been at a standstil with all stu
dents and professors in the higher schools
on strike since February.
The ukase places the election OF rectors
and deans OF the universities. who have
hitherto been appointed by the minister Of
education and were regarded a represen-
tatives OF the hated bureaucratic classes,
in the hands OF the professors, thereby
making these officials truly representa- tive
OF university life.
The ukase fails 10 give the right Of as
sembly or to grant the other political de-
mands for which the students have been
agitating, but the placing OF the govern
ment Of the universities in the hands OF the
professors meets the principal grievance of
the students in regard to purely academic
conditions, as the faculties and students
are thoroughly In sympathy with each
other because OF their common Efforts 70

Eighteenth Annual Festival of British
Association Now in Progress

LONDON. Sept. lO.-CSpecial Cablegram to
The Bee.)-At the Crystal Palace the
eighteenth cooperative festival has been
attracting considerable attention. At the
present time. according TO NJ. Vivian. more
than 100000 households are supplied from
cooperative stores.
Wherever you get the conditions that
prevail in the Lancashire and Yorkshire
towns, a largo working class population
with more or less fixed or identical In
terests, cooperation prospers." said Mr..
~Yvian by way of explanation. THE con-
ditions In London are rather different, but
in places like Woolwlch and stratford the
conditions are more favorable. There you
have a large number of men engaged in
similar, regular employment, with a pros
pect OF remaining in town for a lifetime. A"
The great example in cooperation is the
Leeds society. with a membership OF 5OO 900
and a turnover of nearly $l0OOO,OOO every
year. The doings Of the corporation OF
the city Of London are not so keenly
watched. nor by half so many people. as
the doings OF the committee OF the Leeds
Industrial Coop"
But the novel departure OF cooperative
housing is the thing that looms largest
for the future. Tenant owners societies
are sprlnging up under the guidance OF the
Cooperative Housing council. Each So
ciety buys land and erects real model
dwellings on the garden village" principle
and the cooperative tenant pays rent IA

CHICAGO, Sept 1O.-Unless some sort Of
a compromise is reached within the next
two days between the freight handlers Of
Chicago and vicinity and the railroads en-
tering Chicago there will in all probability
be a general strike of the men. Ever since
last June when the working contracts Of

expired the men have been trying to get
the roads to sign a new agreement but
have been unsuccessful.
Today a meeting was held for the pur-
pose Of considering bringing the question
before the general managers. II was de-
cded TO allow the employers but forty
eight hours longer in which to come to
some sort Of agreement. Tomorrow all the
railroads interested will be notified by the

the difficulty, agree to meet with repre-
sentatives of the union or concede part of
the demands of the men, a referendum vote
to call a general strike will be taken.
