TOOTH OF "MISSING LINK" DISCOVERED IN NEBRASKA Scientist Reperta New and Inde pendent Type of Anthropoid Ape Washington, April 26. (By A. P.) The previous existence en this centi nent of a new genu-; and species of primate "much mere closely resembling the human type than it does any known species of ape," -although distinct irem either, is believed te have been estab lished by the recent discovery of a small teeth In the faunal deposits of Nebraska, according te a paper rend at the concluding session here of the Na tional Academy, of 8cienceB last night by Dr. Henry P. Osbern. of the Amer ican Museum of Natural History. A number of authorities, Dr. Osbern said, agreed with his deduction that tm discovery had established the existence In the "Pliocene period" of a "new and independent type" of anthropoid, or man-like animal. Entire credit for the discovery, he said, belonged te Hareld U. Cook, a mnnnlllnc eeoiecist Ol AKUie, uru, i . "The 'animal is certainly a new ge- nus of anthropoid," the speaKer saiu, "probably an animal which wandered ever here from' Asia Sviththe large Seuth Asiatic clement wnlcn nas recently ana discovered in our fauna by Merrjam, GIdlev and ethers.
