German Fishing Party Geta Into a Hot Wrangle Over Ancient Anchor. Deputy Surveyor of the Port Matthew Coneya and several Inspectors, on board the tugboat Timmlns, which has been chartered by the Government to patrol the lower bay In the Interest of the protection of small motor craft, found an excited German fishing party In Coney Island Inlet yesterday afternoon, deep In a historical 1 The skipper of the Timmlns saw the members of the party waving arms and shouting at the top of their voices, and. believing that they were in distress, steamed over to where their boat was anchored. Here It was found that one ot the fishermen had hauled up a email, bar-nacle-lncrusted. old-fashioned, four-fluked anchor.

The excitable Oermans Immediately decided that they had discovered a relic ot either the voyage of Christopher Cloumbua or that of Hendrik Hudson. The members of the party wbo held the two theories were divided into about equal factions, and things were waxing pretty warm when the Tlmmina hove to. The Deputy Surveyor tried to discourage both sides of the dispute tn the Interests of general aaftey, but was unsuccessful. After expressing their utter contempt for hla conception of antiquarian marine matters, tbe Germane went on with their wrangle and the Tlmmina went away and left them at it.

Lee Shubert yesterday announced a new plan by which he expects both to improve the standarda of bis companies and to give some of the young people in hla employ a chance for foreign study. The plan is for the establishment of two prises, practically scholarships, to be awarded for the first time next May, at the end of the theatrical season just opening, one prise to be given to a man and the other to a woman in one ot the Shubert companies. The winners of theae acholarshlps," aa they are to be known, are to be aent abroad for a season at the expense of Mr. Shubert. and are to study at the famous school of the Theatre Francals in Paris.

They will also be expected to spend a few weeks each In London. Berlin, and Vienna before returning to this country. The condition on which the winners are to be sent abroad is that they shall sign a five years' contract with the Shuberts before leaving. When they return they will be placed In the Shubert dramatic companies and naturally every opportu nity will be offered them for advancement. Tbe winners will be selected by Lee and J.

J. Shubert, assisted by their various stage managers, and there will be nothing In the way of a public contest. The limitations are that they must be chosen from the younger members of the strictly legitimate companiea and must be players appearing In responsible speaking roles, but all stars and featured players are to be excluded. The idea la mainly to familiarise a certain number of the younger players with the Continental drama and Continental methods of interpretation and at tbe same time to give them a favorable insight Into the workings of the most famous of the endowed theatres. The object of the manager In Institute Ing these' acholarshlps is to increase the ability and prestige of the players under his control and to incite competition among his minor players.

Also, owing to his recent appointment aa business manager of the New Theatre, he. is desirous of doing anything la his vomer to promulgate the art theatre idea and hopes that the young people returning from Paris will come back more or less aa disciples' of the cauae to contend against the skeptical feeling that prevails among the older actors and actresses. After the young people have served out their contracts under the Shubert management It la possible that they will ba among the most available candidates for positions In the company of the New Theatre. As a compliment to the two most distinguished players under his direction the scholarship ships will be known as tha Julia Marlowe and E. H.

Sothern Prises." Mr. Shubert will wrMe to the director of the Theatre Francais asking mm to ao everything in nis power to help the young-Americans, and he expects that, even with a comparatively slight knowledge of French, they will be able to learn the atmosphere and much of the European methods of staging and acting. The question of the permanence of the scheme will naturally depend to a degree on the results attained by the first two winners of the prises. CLARA LIPMAN QUITS STAGE. 8h Will Write Plays Hereafter Back from Europe with Her Husband.

Louis Mann and his wife. Clara Lip-man, returned from abroad yesterday on the Bluecher. Mrs. Mann, who haa not acted since her London engagement of last year In her own play, Julie Bonbon," announced that ahe does not expect to act again, but will devote her time to writing plays and librettos. She brought With her vaudeville sketch called "The Girl of the Ferry." which she plans to adapt as the libretto of a musical comedy.

Mr. Mann brought with him only one play, a one-act fantasy or allegory entitled The Sense of Direction." The charactera in this singular piece are the Church, Formal Justice, Mere Wealth, and the Presa. A tragic denouement la effected when the other Influences combine to destroy the Press. I saw everything In the theatres of Berlin. Vienna, and Paris as well as in some smaller cities." said Mr.

Mann, but saw nothing worthy of importation. Tbe OermAn stage Is just now infested wKh one-act pieces, comic in design, but ao frankly obscene that Paris itself would blush for them. I found the Tyrol and Bohemian resorts virtually bankrupt for lack of the usual Summer crowds. I met Sonnenthal in Vienna, and he aald he would never return to the United States, aa edumted Germans here go to theatres where English Is spoken. Helene Odlllon and Ferdinand Bonn told me tbe same thing." Mr.

Mann went at once to the of his manager. William A. Brady, at Allen-hurst, where were gathered yesterday Mme. Fred de Oresae. Harrison Rhodes, and Jules Eckert Goodman, the latter the author of the new play of eaat aide life, "The New Generation." in which Mr.

Mann la to appear thla season. He will begin rehearsals Immediately. NO SAIL ALOFT FOR ACTRESS. Really It Waa Mean of the Manager to Prevent Her Flight In Airship. The actress did not go ballooning yesterday at Palisades Park as announced.

Escorted by a corps of press agents she went to the park and even took her place beside Jones, the Invincible aeronaut and Captain of the Boomerang. However, as Jones was about to ascend a young lawyer, playing hla role with melodramatic fervor, arrived on the scene with a note from tbe manager of the actress. The note said that any attempt on the part of tbe actress to appear before any audience In any public place ether than the theatre In which she Is regularly acting- would constitute a violation of contract. le this really true asked the actress. Can my manager really be eo mean? Impossible! gasped the chorus of press agents with surprise that was really alarming.

M-I hope you win not be offended, but my orders are absolutely positive," aald the lawyer. "Then, alas 1. I shall not ride to-day." alghed Bessie McCoy, and descended from the machine back to the solid ground. On Its first attempt to rise Mr. Jones's airship repeated Its old trick ot getting tangled in the trees, and.

after nearly turning up-side down, was hauled down again for a fresh stsrt. On the second start Jones roae well above the trees and. after Mailing a abort distance, made a number of futile endeavors to sail back against the wind He finally gave op the attempt and In descending got mixed op with soma telegraph and electric wires. Jones' machine was not materially injured yesterday, but he will sail no- more in this rlclnUy, ARNOLD DALY'S NEW PLAY. Back, Home with -Tte Jury of Fate," by C.

"I saw Mr. Shaw;" he said, -but we didn't- have time to discuss plays, for It was necessary for me to explain to him that he had made very little use of his career, and show him why, and then I had to listen to hla explanation to me that I had overlooked some important and vital features of my own career.

Having only three weeks to spend together, there was time for nothing else, and it was necessary for me to go to Carlsbad." THINGS ASTIR ON THE RIALT0. Many Companies Busy Rehearsing for Opening of Theatrical Season. These are busy days along the Rialto. Actors and actresses who have obtained engagements for the coming seaaon are sweltering through rehearsals from early In the morning until lata at night, while hundreds of "there who have not been so fortunate are swarming around the offices of the employing agents or the producing managers hoping that they may be assigned to a company to be sent on the road. In every dark theatre in the city rehearsals are being conducted and In some instances two and three companies aro using the stage alternating morning, afternoon, and evening.

Elsewhere In the city where there Is an available hall or large loft managers are using them for training choruses or teaching candidates how to dance the new steps. With the vaudevillians the roof of an apartment house or the wild woods or seashore is often the scene ot rehearsals where the business Is studied and the climaxes worked up. AFTER THE THEATRE MERGER. F. U.

Votes to Ask Attorney General Bonaparte to Investigate.

BALDY AN APT PUPIL His Instructor Thinks He Has Taught Him to 8ay Peach, Reach, and Screech. The investigation of Melvln Haggerty. along the general lines of monkey psychology at the Bronx Park Zoo. have spurred the keepers of the Central Park Zoo to unwonted activity of late. Two of them are now busy with aa experiment by which they say they hope to beat the Harvard expert at his own tame.

While Mr. Haggerty has devoted all his energies to trying to teach the (monkeys new tricks, thereby creating an opportunity to see Just how important a part suggestion and Imitation play In their dally life, the keepers at the Central Park Zoo have gone further. They are trying In a modest way to teach the monkeys under their care to realize the significance of spoken words. They say that the result of their experiments has been surprising. One of the monkeys haa not only learned significance of several words, but has developed a limited vocabulary of his own, apparently realizing what the words mean.

The keepers have had difficulty, however, in getting any of the visitors to take a. serious view of their labors. Patrick Canan, keeper of the Central Park monkey house. Is the leading spirit In these recent experiments. He has been assisted by Keeper Robert Hurtin.

Head Keeper William Snyder, and in fact all the keepers In the Central Park Zoo, have assisted In a small way and all are deeply Interested. The most likely of all the monkeys In the Central Park monkey house Is Baldy. There Is also a Baldy In the Bronx Park Zoo on which Mr. Haggerty has experi mented a ltttle. But the Bronx Park Baldy Is a chimpanzee, of the black-faced species.

The Central Park Baldy Is a rlnar-tallod monkey and got bis name from a tendency to baldness on his pate. Baldy Is a noisy little chap. His chattering is louder than all the other monkeys. His loquaciousness Is his strongest characteristic Jhat and hla agility on the swinging bars Keeper Canan learned of Haggerty's experiments through Tri Tucks. He paid a visit to the Bronx Park Zoo to see for himself Just what the man from Harvard proposed doing.

He had a talk with Mr. Haggerty and offered a few suggestions. Then he went back to Central Park and had a talk with Keeper Hurtin. Next day thef experiments, with, Bady began. ''Wo' do "not mean' that any" monkey experimenter shall get ahead off us" said Keeper Canan yesterday.

Acting upon this principle Canan and Hurtin determined to create a new era in monkey-dom. They had read of the work of Prof. Garner In Africa and his observations of monkey language while Hying in a cage In the jungles. They noted that Prof. Qarner snnquncedafter long experimentation that the monkeys had a language of their own.

The keepers determined to see if the monkeys under their care could not do even better than talk In their native tongue. Keeper Canan had noticed that several Cf. the ring-tailed monkeys in their ehat-eriijF almost always, used, sounds which seemed: to end in ch." Most of the round made by the monkey trfW sounded. In fsct. like each." They made that sound when excited, or when the keepers appeared with food.

They made It at play and sometimes when In deep mood. There waa a different Intonation, but nearly always the sound ech was noticed by Canan and Hurtin. Why not teach the monkeys the significance of Ertgtleh words ending with said Canan to his fellow keeper. Hurtin said he saw no reason why they couldn't, with a little painstaking effort. That was a month or more ago.

The words selected by the two keepers were "peach." "reach," and screech," With these words they set to The first few lessons were devoted to trying to teach Baldy the significance of peach. And thla Is the way they worked: Canan would take a nice ripe peach to the cage where Baldy was kept. Ho would stand In front of him. and, holding out tbe peach, would say peach many times. It was days before Baldy seemed to realise what the keeper waa driving at.

He would make a grab for the fruit, Canan would quickly withdraw his hand, and Baldy would Jump about tho cage, making grimaces and saying something which ended with ch," but waa certainly not But one morning, after repeating the name of the fruit many times. Canan says bethought -he detected a sound like "peach" from Baldy. lie kept up his repetition of the word, and after a "while, he says, Baldy made a sound which was as much like peach as a monkey could bo expected' to make. Then Baldy got the peach and ate It with relish. Later In the day Canan offered another peach.

Baldy appeared delighted and grabbed 'for It. But tho keeper withdrew hla arm and aald peach. Baldy, he says, seemed to understand, and after a little wait the keeper heard the sound from Baldy which, be aays, waa near enough to "peach." ao again he gave him thO fruit. After that, says Canan. It was not necessary to speak at all when be offered Baldy a peach, for the monkey upon seeing the fruit always hastened to say what the keeper expected him to say.

The experiments had reached this stage wben all the keepers became interested.

Canan then began on the third word he had selected, reach." He stndled a long while how to Impress upon Baldy the significance of tho word. Of course Baldy would always reach when he was offered anything by th keeper, but teaching hiss to say tho word and act upon tt was a different matter. Canan finally like ho had begun on tho others. He offered a banana to Baldy and said Teach aa plainly ag bo could. Baldy would reach, only to find tho banana withdrawn.

Then ho would say that which resembled reach and screech." but not the new aays Canan. "the monkey did say what waa allowed to pass- for "reacJvV i DISGUISED POLICEMAN HURT.
