The trust was to support such number of American teachers as the trustees might select for a year's travel and observation abroad. The American foundation complemented similar trusts in France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Italy. It expired, in America, at least, among the wreckage of foreign exchange after World War I.

Folders 6-11 John Koren Expedition to Siberia, correspondence, February-November 1914, February-June, August 1915-1917. John (or Johan) Koren, a fur dealer and collector, approached the Smithsonian in 1911, proposing to take a Smithsonian representative with him on his expedition to the Kolyma River region of Siberia. George P. Merrill and others at the Smithsonian were enthusiastic about the project, and Benno Alexander was chosen for the work. He was joined by Copley Amory, Jr., of Columbia University in his capacity as a Smithsonian collaborator and partial sponsor of the expedition. The party set out about June 25, 1914, from Seattle, Washington, and dissension soon arose between Koren and Amory. Koren seems to have gone bankrupt, and Amory continued the expedition. Alexander and the Smithsonian felt that their interests had not been much considered in the course of the struggles between Amory and Koren. Alexander did not have as much opportunity to collect material as he had hoped for, and apparently much of that had to be left behind for want of shipping from Siberia when World War I broke out.

In 1893 the Smithsonian began to sponsor a "table" for original research at the research station maintained by the Naples Zoological Society, Naples, Italy. The station, founded in 1875, was intended as an international center for studies in the biological and life sciences. It was directed by Dr. Anton Dohrn until his death, when he was succeeded by his son, Dr. Reinhard Dohrn. Sponsorship of this table enabled the Smithsonian to assign one or two scholars to the research facility for whatever time it wished. Before the onset of World War I forced the station to close, this table offered research opportunities to a substantial number of users. These records are arranged alphabetically by applicant name.

This and following folders document the planning and execution of the work, which was carried out with public and private funds. It was co-ordinated by the Smithsonian, with the help of the Bureau of Fisheries, Department of Commerce and Labor, and the Biological Survey and Divisions of Botany and Entomology, Department of Agriculture. It may be that the interest and data produced by this effort helped to lay the groundwork for the Institute for Research in Tropical America, the progenitor of the present-day Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (see record units 46, 50, 108, 134, 135).

The first edition of the Physical Tables, prepared by Thomas Gray, appeared in 1897. This correspondence concerns a reprinting, with minor corrections, of that publication.

Frederick Gardiner Cottrell approached the Smithsonian in 1911 and offered to give it certain income-producing patents for electrostatic precipitation processes. He had supposed that the Smithsonian could license the patents and apply the income to research. The Institution concluded that it could not hold the patents.

The expedition reached Capetown, South Africa, in August 1919. Edmund Heller, who had accompanied Theodore Roosevelt to Africa in 1908, was in charge of the expedition. It seems that control was in dispute, and actual control was exercised by representatives of the film company, who were more interested in salable film subject matter than in scientific work. The Smithsonian was unhappy with the quality of the work performed and separated itself from the results of the expedition so far as it could.
