PRESIDENT SENDS
GIFTS TO ISLAND
Members of Party Pay Visit
to Wittmer Family on.
Charles.
Ey the Associated Press.


ABOARD U. S. S. HOUSTON, in
Galapagos Archipelago, July 81
Charles Island. the one-time refuge of
Baroness Eloise Wehrborn and her
court" was the anchorage of the
cruiser Houston and its presidential
party today.
1t was the first inhabited island of
the Galapagos group which the Hous-
ton visited since arriving among the
islands Sunday. President Roose-
velt did not 60 ashore. but members
of his party left the ship to explore
the island and take gifts from the
President to the Wittmer family
Gifts were sent to Heinz Wittmer,
his wife, Margaret, and their three
children.
Locale Of Strange Mystery.
The island was the locale of one Of
the strangest mystery death stories
ever to come out of the tropics The
story involved supposed paradise
once ruled by the German baroness.
In 1884 the bodies of two men who
had died of thirst were found on
bleak Marchena Island, one of the
Galapagos group. They were identi-
fled as Arthur Rudolph Lorenz. former
Partisan, and Norwegian sailor
named Nuggerood.
How the men reached Marchena
Island was never determined There
was no trace Of any boat having taken
them there
Later it was learned the baroness
and companion. Robert PhilipsoA,
who possibly could have shed some
light on the mystery, sailed from the
South Seas, never to be heard from
again.
The Houston was under way again
shortly before noon, headed for Gard
ner Bay in Hood Island, run of
about four hours, where it was to
anchor overnight.
Advised of Housing Progress.
Administrator Stewart Mcdonald
advised the President that Federal
Housing business continued 100 per
cent ahead of July, 1887. He reported
small home mortgage insurance ap-
plications for the week ending July
% totaled more than $4,000, 900. dou-
Bile the total for the corresponding
week last year. and that property i'm
provement loans for the same week
registered new highs, reaching nearly
s4.400,000.
Reports also were received from the
rural electrification projects that these
funds would make electricity available
for the time to approximately 5000
farm homes in 19 States.
The President, in a message to An
tonic Lopez, President of Colombia,
expressed his very deep sympathy in
the unfortunate disaster, news of
which had just reached me- I am most
happy to know that you and President
elect Eduardo Santos escaped injury"
The President referred to the air
plane accident there Sunday in which
more than 40 persons were killed.

 On behalf of the Pioneers I thank everyone that contributed to their Christmas Fund. It is a generous and thoughtful act. To nearly all of my 182 men, it is the only cash they have for an entire year.
 Anyone that could witness the expressions of sincere gratitude of the recipients of this money would feel that their gift was worth while.
 It would be wonderful to con- template. that in time a trust fund could be set up that would in- sure perpetual fund for the use of the residents of the Home.
 This could easily be accomplish ed if some of the Alaskans that have become wealthy would make a proviso in their will for this purpose.
 Some of the future winners of the ice pool might also become willing contributors to a fund of this nature.
 I render herewith an account ing of the money received and distributed this past Christmas:

Attempt to Prove Defendant Un'

BY the Associated Press
LOS ANGELES, Feb. Paul 4.
Wright's trial for a confessed double
Staying drifted further today into the
strange realm of psychiatry-the
medical speciality that deals With
mental disorders.
Summoned back to the witness
stand for cross-examination by the
prosecution was DR.. Samuel Marcus,
an alienist.
He told the jury yesterday it is
possible for an individual of Wright's
physical and mental condition to be
made temporarily unconscious by
witnessing such a scene as the de-
fendant claimed he saw when he
shot his 29-year-old wife Evelyn and
his best friend" John Kimmel. 90.
Wright in his own story of the
double killing, claimed a glimpse of
an unnatural intimacy between Mrs.
Wright and Kimmel made his mind
go blank and he shot the pair to
death.
One of the longest hypothetical
questions in medico-legal history-one
that required one hour and 20 min
utes to propound-was asked of DR..
Marcus by Chief Defense Attorney
Jerry Giesler.
Most of the questions was a review
OF all defense evidence. together with
some OF the prosecutions. With this
lengthy preamble, Giesler demanded
OF the psychiatrist:
In your opinion. could that
man by reason of the sight
which he observed, have received such
mental shock as to have rendered
him unconscious at that moment?"
YES" replied DR.. Marcus,
