REPORT OF DECEMBER qth, 1904 265 



scientific court. I would also report that for some time 

 Mr. Schillings has been convinced, by his own observa- 

 tions, of the horse's lack of reason, and when he was 

 apprised of our conclusion in the matter, he embraced it 

 without wavering. I have no intention of taking part 

 in any discussion which may arise in the press as a result 

 of the present report. Unless they wish to confine them- 

 selves to mere guesswork, the defenders of other views 

 will not shrink from the task of basing their criticism 

 upon careful methodical experimentation, and they will 

 keep a detailed record of their results day by day; for 

 statements based solely upon memory, without specific 

 report of experimental conditions, prove nothing. 



Prof. Carl Stumpf.
