MAN MARO0NED
IN POTOMAC

Fifty miles down the Potomac
from Washington a field agent
OF the Biological Survey was be-
lieved today to be marooned on
Holland Island, otherwise unin-
habited, without food or other
supplies except fuel and clothing.
A Coast Guard radio testing
plane was dispatched from the
Naval Airport at 1890 this after
noon, following an appeal from
officials Of the Biological Sur
vey, in an effort to drop food
and instructions on the island
and, if possible, to. determine
whether the missing agent is
actually there.
Deputy Game Management
Agent Cornelius Wallace, 20, of
Fishing Greek, Md, attached to
a field station Of the Survey at
Cambridge, Md, is the agent
whose plight the two arms Of the
Government were attempting to
relieve. Instructed ii days ago
to go to Holland Island for a four.
day survey of ducks and other
waterfowl, he took with him only
enough food for that period.

It was said by officials Of the
Biological Survey that the island,
which lies in the middle of the
river near its mouth, IL miles
south of Crisfield, Md, and the
same distance offshore, is a con-
centration point for migratory
waterfowl. There is windowleSs

Kidnap Witness
Found Bound,
Garroted

NEW YORK, Jan. 81 G.N.s0.
An assailant who cried, You'll
burn now, you damn Jew-you
won't talk" today bound and gag
ged Mrs. Annette Rivkin, who was
prepared to testify for the State
in the Hauptmann case, and left
her in chair near which he had
set a fire in her beauty culture
school.
She was unconscious and strang-
ling, rope around her neck and
five or six pieces of tire skid chain
in her mouth, when John Espin-
osa, superintendent of the build
ing where her school is located,
saved her.
Told of Money
Mrs. Rivkin had related that
Mrs. Anna Hauptmann frequently
rendered $40 and $40 bills in pay
ment for 50-cent or 75-cent sham
poos and facials at her beauty
parlor after the Lindbergh kid
naping.
The 43.year-old beauty culture
instructor was lying on the floor,
near the small office in her
school, when Mr.. Espinosa found
her.
When she recovered conscious
ness, she disclosed that she had
been placed in a chair by her
assailant but had managed to
throw herself from it and crawl
a few feet after he had set a fire
and left.
"You Won't Talk"
In a serious condition from
shock, Mrs. Rivkin haltingly told
this story of what had happened.
IT walked into the back room
to get my Sm0ck. 1 took it from
the hook and turned around.
"He was in front of me.
81 wanted to run but he
grabbed me. He tied me up and
put me in the chair.
"He hOllered, You'll burn
now, you damn Jew. You won't
talk
81 said, I'll say I don't know!
I'm not going to tell! / Swear!'
"He had on a false wig and
false mustache. He has been
here before.
"He made the fire and
slammed the door going out.
'T threw myself off the chair
and crawled away"
The Washington times., 1935-01-31

Hauptmann's alibi witness-the second of
the day-was forced to admit that the night
he dropped into the Fredericksen restaurant
he was on his way to dispose of package of
rum to man named Louis Singer, who lived
in the Bronx, "15 or 20 minutes walk from
the Yankee Stadium"
Attorney General Wentz made the most of Mr. Kiss
revelation that he bootegger. He asked the wit
if he sampled his own rum that night MIR. Kiss
said no, he the did not make practice of drink
ing rum at night.
In sarcastic tones Wentz wanted to he his
rum in the morning The slim, baldsh little silk painter said
"Yah!"
When Mr.. Wilenz asked him what his drink at night
the witness gestculated comicaly and said:
Sometimes wine, sometimes beer.''
