UP) Tho shaft through which rescuers hupe to reach Floyd Collins in Sanu enve wa approximately 30 feet dct'P at 1) a. in. today, four days after it was started. At the present rate the level where Oullins jy thuught to be will not be reached before Thursday or Friday. -Mother nature today had added an other obstacle to the efforts of man to rescue Collins from the grip of u boulder trap in the depths of Sand cave, sending torrents of rain lust night with a promise of more today. Despite precautions of keep water out of the perpendicular shaft timed at Collins' prison, seepuge crept in (o the but Dum of the shaft and udded heavily to the burden of the volun teer diggers, itiey kept doggedly at it with some slight increu.se in hourly progress as the tenth day of Collins' imprisonment ended at 10 o clock thn morning. The shaft tib-n was less than half way to Collins, 00 r 70 feet be kw the surface. . Gas Is Tried. When rock slides blocked the nat urol tunnel of Snnd cave Thursday, the use of pungent but harmless gu-s was seized upon as means of find ing the back end of Collins' latent enve, but the experiment, tried last nigJit with banana oil, was unsuc cessful. Despite a strong down draft of air into Snnd cave do trace of the odor could be located in any neerb cave. With most of the spectacular, fren zied striving to free Collins a closed chapter and all efforts-centered on the monotonous toil of digging and hoisting, new theorifts began tw de velop about the situation until they were almost as thick as the outstand ing incident in the drama. Theories Advanced. The principal groups of theories fall into three classes that the im prisonment of Collins by a rock on his leg Is n publicity Jionx; that enemies finding him trapped caused the walls of the cave to collapse so he- conhl not be rescued olive or possibly enur ed tho slide which trapped him; end the most generally accepted theory, Collins' own story in the -early day of tho reacue work that he really -wn accidentally trnpped after discover ing a cavern more beautiful than any vet found in the region. Ouo of the active rumors of Sunday night was that Circuit Judge Basil Itichardson of Glasgow, would call a grand jury to investigate the probab ility of n publicity hoax. Judge Rich ardson said be had never thought of such n thing and didn't believe it was a hoax. INQUIRY TO BE HELD CAVE CITY, Ky., Feb. 0.0P) Circumstances surrounding the trap ping of Floyd Collins In Sand cave, and tho efforts of volunteer rescuers to releaso htm will be made the sub ject of a military court of inquiry, ltrigadier General 11. 11. Denhardt, in command of guardsmen here, an nounced today. "1 hope by this court of inquiry to lay nt rest all suspicions, whisperings of the efforts to block rescue work and rumors thnt Collins entrapment was not genuine," said General Den hardt. The commander said his plan for the military investigation nnd been sanctioned by Governor Fields nnd Adjutant-lienernl Kchoe. The entire testimony nnd proceed ings will be recorded in a complete stenographic record. The court will be conducted in a tent nt the scene of the rescue work near the entrance to Sand enve. General Denliardt deem ed It advisable to hold the henring before Collins' fte haB been deter mined because of the difficulty of bringing tho desired witnesses to Sand cave after the work has ended and the rescuers returned to their homes. to be recovering nicely when she sud denly began to fail rapidly.
