WORKING ON A NEW
THEORY OF EVOLUTION

Chicago. Jan. 3.-Prof. w. L. Tower
OF the University OF Chicago, who has
been working on a new theory Of evo-
luton to supplant those Of DeVries
and Darwin, brought before the scien-
lists of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science, in the
zoology laboratory of the university
yesterday his experiments and conclu-
sions reached with the potato bug.
With many sizes and colors Of lep-
tinotarsa, of which the potato bug is
one form, the scientist made series
of four demonstrations which were said
to be of worldwide Importance.
Prof. Tower has been experimenting
with the potato bug for over II years,
having studied in Mexico, Arizona, New
Mexico, and in his own laboratory. He
has taken it from one place to an
ether transplanted it from the high
lands to the lowlands of Mexico, and
has changed its environment in every
particular.
His conclusion is that evolution has
not taken place wholly by mutation,
nor by natural election.
Il am of the opinion that the evoiu-
animals IN general has been continuous
and direct, developing new species
and migrating races by direct response
TO the conditions of existence" ne
