This evaluation can be found in my init file. I can evaluate this manually 
without any problem.

Returns:
Library is file ~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20130930/org.elc

Returns (I hope I collected only the relevant entries):

I guess that the above output suggests that org-mode is properly installed (via 
ELPA), isn't it? I'm afraid that I am not hinted by this output.

What further steps can I take?
