MARSHALL, SLAYER,
!. CONFRONTS WIFE
Spcuse's Faith in Man Who
Strangled MiIIiner Still
Holds, She Says.
BY the Associated Press.

PHILADELPHIA Pa, February z.
David l.. Marshall. confessed slayer
of Anna May Dietrich, met his wile
TODAY for the first time since he was
led away from his home by the police,
telling her Il will be back in lttle
while"
The pair met in the private Office
of Coroner Schwartz prior to the IN
quest Marshall is charged with the
murder Of the 35-year-old milliner and
dismembering her body to hide the
crime. He choked her to death, he
confessed. because she tried to eNtort
money from him under threats she
would expose their relations.
Meets His Wife.
Mrs Marshall preceded her hus
hand 10 the cOronerS : office. A croWo
had gathered in the sixth floor corri-
dor of City Hall To see Marshall enter
hut was kept away from the room.
AS Marshall passed into the office ne
saw his wife sitting in a chair.
He stopped with his arms hanging
at his sides Then slowly he advanced
and as he approached Mrs. Marshall
arose from her seat, half ran toward
him and flung her arms around ms
neck. Her voice was torn by sooS
as she embraced him.
''Oh. David. Oh, David. What have
you done2"
Marshall made no reply. He clasped
his wife in both arms and his mead
dropped as she kissed him.
Suddenly she seemed to collapse.
Only Marshalrs clasp prevented her
from falling. a deputy coroner hur-
ried TO her side and she was taken to
a chair in a dead faint.
As Marshall released his embrace ne
was hurried through the office to the
hearing room.
Has Faith i'm Him.
In few minutes Mrs. Marshall re-
yiyed sufficiently to follow her hus-
band. who seemed less affected than
his wife 10y the meeting.
While waiting for the inquest TO be-
gin. some one asked Mrs. Marshall If
her faith in her husband was un-
changed. For the first time she show
ed signs of animation, and defiantly
replied: Certainly. l have faith in
him" She said she had tried to send
food to her husband while he was in
prison, but he was not allowed to
have it.
Marshall was held without bail by
the coroner to await the action of the
grand jury.

NEW YORK, February Sun
spots are not responsible for the un.
wonted gales In the North Atlantic
and freakish weather ashore, james
III. kimht1l, meteorologist of the
Weather Bureau, says
The recent series OF natural convul-
sions-solar spots. earthquake, aurora
borealis, magnetic storms and sea
storms of unaccustomed violence and
duratton-havs led to the omnious
shaking of heads in many quarters
and vague ideas that all these are
attributed to some single dislocation
in nature.
''It is probable enough" said Mr..
kimball. that the magnetic storms
experienced in North America dur
Ing the week was a phenomenon of
the aurora borealis. We have OBJ
served no aurora. but then it Is diff
hcult to observe such manifestations
In New York because of the city's
glow at night.
Theory Is Explained.
Furthermore. it is an acceptable
theory that the aurora results from
an electronic bombardment OF the
earth accompanying the magnetic ac.
tivtty Of sun spots
But !. for one, cannot ascribe
wind movements and temperature
changes to the same cause. OF
course, the sun is our source of
primal energy. All our weather re-
suits through a long chain of phe-
nomena from the suns heat radiation.
II there are big variations in solar
radiation. one would be inclined to
ascribe weather changes ultimately to
such variations. For more than 20
years the astro-physical laboratory of
the Smithsonian Institution has
studied solar radiation. Prof. Lang
ley made the first measuring device,
the bolometer. by which variations In
radiant energy could be ascertained.
Originally this was thought to be q
maximum Of per cent. In other
words, the suns radiation changed at
times by as much as one-twentieth Of
the total
but as the measuring instruments
were refined, made more accurate.
this variation decreased. Now it Is
said to be less than / per cent. This
seems insufficient to me to be respon-
slole for this wide weather variations.
Speculation Mystifies.
Also there is a dilemma when one
speculates on what happens IL the
solar energy fiuctuates Let us as.
sumo that 1t increases l per cent. In
the tropics. where the main solar en-
ergy is received. the atmosphere would
be more highly heated and would flow
out towards the poles.
In the temperate zones more cold
air would push down from the poles
to effect balance. The other horn of
the dilemma is this: Assuming greater
volumes Of more heated air rise up in
the tropics. these convection currents
OF moist air would produce increased

KILLS z MEN

OMAHA, Neb., Feb. 19.-Fear
of a maniac sniper, who, using a

two men this week and fired
through lighted windows at half

Police Commissioners Dunn has or

According to Mrs. Annie Peter
