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

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.
