' Coming immediately to , La Grande from Palmer Junction Mr, Pencake made a systematic attempt ' to gain more rfacts. Western Union wires were kept hot all evening, Saturday, yesterday and this morning again but telegrams sent to railroad officials, officials of the Brotherhood of Con ductors and others, failed to bring ant answer of ! any description. Fi nally' this morning the local O. H. & N. telepraph offlce received , a brief answer from officials at White fish. It appears that Mr, Pencake was . fatally . injured . on March 16th, and his brothers, Arthur and Henry were located. The father, Conduct or Pencake, of Palmer Junction, was overlooked, ' however, and no word reached him. It waa mere chance that the father heard of It at all ' The message received this morning told in a few words of the fatal in juries, the funeral arrangements, and that was all. .. -' Conductor Pencake .. Is confident that his Bon Henry, who was at the scene ot the accident soon ater wards, had wired to the father, but the message was in some way lost. ; iTow.'juBt when,5 and other details pertaining" to the accident are merely conjectures here.
