SHAFT GOES DEEPER
CAVK LIT, K Feb. 0. 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.
