STORY COULD SERVE
AS GERM OF ROMANCE

CHICAGO, July 19.-Rare presence
of mind was displayed yesterday when
A. o. Nelson driving in an automobile
with Miss Ellen Smakel. seized his
companion in his arms and leaped to
safety on the pilot of a train that
threatened them with death.
The incident occurred at Roselle, Ill.
where the wagon road crosses tho Chi
caeo, Milwaukee & st. Paul track. The
couple were driving toward Chicago.
and as they were on the tracks defect
in mechanism abruptly stalled the car
A freight train was rushing toward
them. The engineer applied the
brakes, but the train maintained its
velocity, and it seemed ms if it would
crush the automobile and its occupants
Miss Smakel's only injury was the
nervous shock -

Wife OF THE DEAD MAN
+. IS MISSING STRANGE
STORY COMES TO LIGHT

Where Is Cola Hancock, wife of
Fireman Samuel d. Hancock, who
met horrible death in an accident
on the Uintah railway about two
months ago?
Why did Cola Hancock mysterious
| ly leave and abandon her husband,
/ her little daughter and her mother
in this city and go to ldahc p.esuma-
bly, to nurse two old people whose
names she would not give?
Is Cola Hancock living or dead and
! If living is she liable to come back
and demand the custody of her little
daughter?
These are questions that are puz-
zling the relatives and friends of the
family of the late and well known
railroad man who lies sleeping II, a
grave on Orchard Mesa and yesterday
afternoon in the county court there
was filed petition of most sensa-
tional nature, unfolding one of the
most interesting and unusual stories
heard here in long time.
The story is one that is filled with
, that strange quality known as "hu-
man interest" and besides its mys-
terious features there is most pa
thetic side, involving the love and
devotion of an aged woman fer the
family of her daughter, the wayward
wife of the dead railroad man.
In the county court there was filed
this lengthy and extremely interesting
petition and the petitioners are W. ].
Hancock. of Lehi, Utah: G. w. Ham
cock. of Nephi, Utah; Grafton Han
cock of Salt Lake City, Utah: Thorn

brothers of the deceased, and Mrs.
Lucinda Hicks, of Grand Junction,
mother of the deceased. This petit
tion asks that letters of administra-
tion of the estate of Samuel D. Han
cock. the dead railroad man, be issued
to George T. Edwards. an old time
resident of this city and who for a
long period has been in the employ
of the Book Cliff Coal company. The
netftion sets forth that Hancock was
killed on the Uintah railway, at a

Mrs Hicks states that some twelve
or thirteen years ago Hancock was
employed on her farm in Ozark coun-
ty, Missouri, near the town of Marion.
After working there about a year he
married her daughter Cola. That
was twelve years ago. Hancock and
his wife and Mrs. Hicks continued to
reside on the Missouri farm for about
three years and then all three of
them removed to Eagle county, Colo
RADIO They resided there about a
year and then removed to Basalt,
Colo. After year spent at Basalt
they removed to Grand Junction. In
the meantime a daughter had been
born to Mr.. and Mrs. Hancock. She
was given the name of Ruby. Mr..
Hancock was in the railway service
and had been for several years. He
kept at work regularly. The domestic
life of the Hancocks seemed happy

her mother, never wrote to her hus-

There was general discussion of

to facilitate action on these bills.
There may be further process of
elimination, the idea being to enact

FOUNDATION FOR HIS CHARGES
AGAINST BALLINGER.
Letter Written By Ballinger's Former
Law Partner to DIR. Lyman Alb
bOtt is Brought Into the
Case-Also Long Let
ter Written to Pin
chot by Taft.
THE HEARING GROWS EXCITING.

Washington, Mar. There was 4
surprising development today in the
Ballinger-Pinchot investigation when
Clifford Pinchot announced to the
committee that he based his charges
against Secretary Ballihger upon the
fact that the latter had been guilty
of making statements to the presi-
dent that were false in three essen
tial particulars, not upon letter
from Mr.. Ballinger himself but upon
a letter written by ]. T. Ronald, the
former law partner of Secretary Bal
linger, to DR.. Lyman Abbott. Mr..
Pinchot said that a copy of this let
ter, with ntations. was forwarded by
Secretary Ballinger to the president.
Mr.. Pinchot admitted that the
three statements in the Ronald let
ter which he claimed to be false had
previously been covered by a letter
written by Mr. Ballinger himself to
the president, in which Mr.. Ballinger
had stated what the witness admitted
was true statement of the facts.
Mr.. Pinchot said that he did not at
tempt to reconcile there two facts.
Before this development in the
hearing Mr.. Pinchot said that he
would not press for decision OF the
conversations had with President
Taft, and he introduced as evidence
a long letter written to him by the
president in September last. In this
letter the president denounced CLAWS
as being disingenous, warned Mr..
Pinchot against making the CLAWS
cause his own. declared that he was
sorry that Mr.. Pinchot did not have
the same confidence and trust in Mr.
Ballinger that he did and lastly de-
clared that the controversies between
the department in Washington must
cease. He referred in this latter par
ticular to an alleged interview with
Ormsby McHarg, former assistant
