IND'P'T SHOW'S LESSONS.
The Society of Independent Artists

will close their first and huge annual
exhibition which has been in progress
at the Grand Central Palace, tomorrow
evening.
The show, good as was its plan, has

not only had disappointing results to
its projectors who had fondly hoped
that it would repeat the public interest
and financial success of the famous
Armory' Show, but to the art public,
and neither in attendance nor in re-
ceipts has it at all come up to expecta-
tions.
We understand that happily, through

the large amount received from mem-
bers dues and exhibitors' entrance fees,
and from the underwriting of the af-
fair by certain public spirited art lov-
ers, the artist projectors anl managers
will not suffer any personal financial
loss, but even this will not compen-
sate them for the comparative failure
of the display.
We trust, however, that with better

counsels and management next season,
and especially with the doing away
with the absurd and disastrous alpha-
betical hanging which was largely re-
sponsible for the appalling dullness of
the show, that this year's defeat may
be changed to victory. America should
have an annual Salon which will give
every deserving artist a chance to show
his or her work in public.
A SIMPLE QUESTION.
We wonder how many of the Ameri-

can flags now flying over Fifth Avenue
establishments and some of the side
streets leading off the Avenue from
42 St. up, are so flying for protection
rather than patriotism?
"TRADING WITH THE ENEMY."
We are in the receipt of numerous

letters and telephone calls as to the
status, under present war conditions,
of the German firm of Hanfstaengl and
Co., whose gallery is at Fifth Ave. and
45 St., and whose London house and
stock were recently sold out by the
British Government under the "Trad-
ing with the Enemy Act," now in force
in Great Britain.
Although we have called attention to

the continued absence of the American
flag on the Hanfstaengl establishment
alone of the dealers' galleries in New
York, and are credibly informed that
the head of the New York house, Herr
Franz Hanfstaengl, although his moth-
er is an Americanand he is a graduate
of Harvard, has held and. continues to
hold and express pro-German and anti-
American sympathies, we - doubt, as
long as the Government has not de-
cided upon or Congress has not passed
any "Trading with the Enemy V act,
whether he can be legally forced to dis-
play the Stars and Stripes, or to abstain
from serving such Americans as may
still choose to patronize his establish-
ment. ' , ; ..
There is undoubtedly a disposition

on the part of Americans to treat all
Germans and pro-Germans whd T con-
duct themselves properly and. quietly
and who refrain from treasonable acts
or language, with courtesy and respect.
If Herr Hanfstaengl conducts himself
in this manner there is therefore no
ground, it would seem, for interference
with his business or for proceeding
against him for declination to observe
the custom, universally followed by all
his fellow art dealers of .>N. Y., what-,
ever their nationality, of displaying the
national emblem on or in his gallery or
on his residence. Even Mr. Arthur
Hahlo, a fellow Harvard graduate of
Herr Hanfstaengl's, and who did not
display the American flag on. Prepared-
ness Day last Autumn, "came to heel,"
as we announced when the : crisis ar*
rived this Spring, and now floats the
Stars and Stripes in his gallery win-
dow.
The actions and words of Herr Hanf-

staengl, which have provoked such
comments and complaints, seem to us
to be more stupid and in bad taste than
anything else. We would ask Herr
Hanfstaengl what would happen to an
English, French, or now an American
art dealer, who might persist in doing
business in Berlin during wartime, who
refused to display the German flag on
some day of celebration, and expressed
himself regarding Germany and the
Germans as it is reported, Herr Hanf-
s.aengl has expressed himself in the
Harvard club, of which he is no longer
a member, and elsewhere of late?
We might respectfully suggest, how-

ever, to Herr Hanfstaengl that the pic-
ture of the Kaiser which he displayed
in his 45th St. window some little time
ago, with the result, it is said, that the
window cleaners had a hard job next
day, might well be kept in hiding for
the present.
"The Retort Courteous."
Editor American Art News:
Dear Sir: My letter in the N. Y. Times

which "A Painter" has criticised was mis-
printed. As published it read "There was
born in the Royal Academy of English
snobbery and English commercialism, etc."
obvious nonsense whereas, I wrote
"There was born, of English snobbery and
English commercialism, the Royal Acade-
my a socially and legally entrenched
group, etc." My critic has not shown, or
attempted to show, that this is not true.
In 1711 Sir Godfrey Knoeller opened in

London a private dancing school, an off-
shoot of which, in 1761, held exhibitions as
"A Society of Artists, associated for the
Relief of the Distressed and Decayed of
their own Body, their Widows and Chil-
dren." One. of these exhibitions, in 1767,
was visited by George III, who "presented
the . association, with 100, which set the
tide, of fashion in the right direction and
insured .the success oLthe exhibition." This
charitable- organization, masquerading as an
art . society, and floated on a "tide of
fashion," presently split, the successful
faction obtaining a "promise of Royal sup-
port, and . ultimately became the Royal
Academy."
In 1836, testifying before an investigat-

ing committee; Haydon stated that "The
Royal Academy originated in the basest
intrigue" * . - * * certain artists "had the
ear, of Daltori, the King's Librarian, and
they persuaded him to persuade George III
'to found a Royal Academy." Haydon fur-
ther 'says' that the" Academy "only exists by
the royal pleasure, arid that they cunningly
recused', George TV's bffer'of a charter, fear-
ing it would make them responsible."
.Well, doesn't this come pretty near being

"born of, English snobbery," and also to be-
ing' "a self-elected group of irresponsible
insiders"?
I really must thank "A Painter" for his

pretty compliments about my "good steel
peri," and' also congratulate him on the
markedly improved quality of his own in
his second letter. Only, I wish he wouldn't
write "poser" where he means "poseur"
for a "poser" is such a very different ani-
mal. " Besides, it is one of the curiosities of
our language to such as understand it
that .even though I may, and did, speak of
the Academy as "posing," this by no means
makes me say- its members are poseurs a
ihing as ' foreign to my intention as to my
-statement. '

OBITUARY.
Isaac D. Fletcher.
Isaac Dudley Fletcher, the well known

art collector, died at his home, No. 2 East
79 Street April 28 of pneumonia. Mr.
Fletcher for many years had been con-
stantly adding to his store of art treasures,
and it is estimated that his entire art col-
lection is worth $2,000,000. It will probably
be left intact to the Me'tropolitan Museum.
In fact Mr. Fletcher told Mr. George H.
Story not long a^o that he intended to
leave his art treasures to the museum.
Mr. Fletcher's paintings have been val-

ued at $1,000,000; his rugs, $300,000; stat-
uary, $200,000; Persian potteries, $200,000,
and stained glass, $25,000.
Among the Fletcher paintings are "Head

of Christ," by Rembrandt; "Head of a
Man," by Rubens, a portrait of Chardin, a
fine Gainsborough, a landscape by Millet,
formerly in the Charles A. Dana collection,
several landscapes by Corot, a landscape by
Daubigny, a typical landscape by Alexan-
der H. Wyant, a characteristic portrait by
David, and a portrait of Mme. Pompadour,
by F. Boucher.
Mr. Eugene Glaenzer of Jacques Selig-

mann and Co. will leave for Paris about
May 12.
Shop Talk.
Editor' American Art News:
Dear Sir: -I. have been thinking that you

might if the' idea appealed to you intro-
duce a department into the already interest-
ing columns of the American Art News
which- 1 believe would add to their value.
You- might call it "Shop Talk." It should
be -composed of contributions from experi-
enced artists, describing their practical,
mechanical methods.
O'f course some artists have certain

methods which they would not think of
revealing and very properly. But most
of us could describe their mechanical
methods without any possible injury to
themselves; and I believe many would take
pleasure in doing so.
Artists of maturity and experience are

not likely to modify their ways of doing
things by learning how others accomplish
similar results; but if such information
should not be instructive to them, it would
undoubtedly be interesting. And it might
well arouse stimulating discussion.
Such a department, however, could not

fail to be keenly interesting and very profit-
able to beginners.
Every experienced painter has his own

way of doing things. If he has pupils, and
they adopt his methods, it may or may
not be a .good thing for them. They must,
at first, doubtless, follow somebody, but
it would surely be an advantage to them
to have a variety of methods to choose
from.
Those who might care to contribute to

such a department need not be exclusively
artists of distinction. There are many of
modest pretensions who have adopted or
invented mechanical methods a knowledge
of which would benefit their fellow-crafts-
men.
Among the various subjects which might

be dealt with are: Choice of palette few or
many colors; permanency; drying" qualities,
etc. Brushes size, shape, preservation.
Canvases their character, preparation, etc.
Outdoor sketching appliances, etc. How
to insure paint or varnish from cracking,
and so on without limit.

N. Y., May 3, 1917.
The Statuary and Textiles.
Many examples of statuary and rare rugs

and textiles were purchased by Mr. Flet-
cher from Dikran Khan Kelekian, of 709
Fifth Avenue. Recent purchases included
in the collection are a remarkable XVIII
century French statue of "St. John, the
Evangelist II in stone; from the St. Denis
Cathedral, France; an Egyptian statue of
a priest of the XVIII century Dynasty in
granite, a Karnak treasure which dates
back 3,500 years; a rare XIV century "Vir-
gin and Child" in stone (French), another
XIII century French statue in stone and
a fine XVI century 'panel of Venetian
scutari velvet.
The collection also includes about 25

XVI century Ispahan rugs, 8 Polish rugs,
a set of 32 examples of Persian potteries,
Rhages potteries, a XVI century Persian
carpet, formerly in the Yerkes collection
and a XVI century tomb rug, with an in-
scription.
Among the examples of sculpture may be

mentioned Rodin's "Le Baiser," and another
decorative work entitled "La Siren." The
Metropolitan Museum will indeed be for-
tunate, if it receives the Fletcher collection.
Robert Koehler.
Robert Koehler, who received his early

education in Milwaukee, and who was a
member of the International Institute of
Arts and Letters at Paris and various
American art societies, died at Minneapolis
April 24, last. He was born in Hamburg,
Germany, in 1850. After leaving/Milwaukee
he took up drawing and painting in N. Y.
and Munich. In 1883 he organized an
American department of the art exhibition
at Munich.
Mrs. Laura Frances Hearn, widow of

George A. Hearn, the art collector, died
April 28, at her home, No. 20 Fifth Avenue.
Mrs. Hearn was the daughter of the late
Howell Hoppock. In accordance with the
terms of Mr. Hearn's will, Mrs. Hearn re-
ceived all the art works in the Hearn home,
No. 46 East Sixty-ninth street. She also
received $30,000 a year for life. Her three
sons-in-law Messrs. Clarkson Cowl, George
E. Schank and Herbert S. Greiqjg are mem-
bers of the firm of James A. Hearn & Son.
Frederick Gutekunst.
Frederick Gutekunst, a photographer,

whose pictures of great men were noted all
over the world, died at his home in Phila-
delphia, April 27 in his eighty-fifth year.
Mr. Gutekunst was born in Germany in 1831,
and came here with his father when a boy,
settling in Germantown. He entered ' the
employ of a druggist and studied experi-
mental electricity and chemistry. He ex-
perimented with daguerreotypes at first,
later making copper electrotypes. He per-
sonally directed his establishment for sixty
years. He made photographs of William
McKinley, Grover Cleveland. Carl Schurz,
William Cullen Bryant, Longfellow and
many others.
David John Gue.
David John Gue, the veteran artist, died

Tuesday last at his Brooklyn home, aged
82. He was born in N. Y. and at an early
age went to Iowa, where for years he prac-
ticed law and dispensed drugs. When past
fifty he became an artist. He painted the
portraits of Gen. U. S. Grant and of Henry
Ward Beecher.
Mr. Gue also painted many other por-

traits, some of which hang on the walls of
the Whitehall and Lawyers Clubs, N. Y.
Other of his paintings were exhibited re-
cently in Plymouth Church at the seven-
tieth anniversary of the Beecher pastorate.
Mr. Gue was also a good landscape and
marine painter, and an old member of the
Salmagundi Club, where he was highly es-
teemed.
