TELLS HOW OLYMPIC
MADE MAD DASH
TO REACH TITANIC
CONTINUED from page one).

message received from Roy w. How
ard, general news manager OF the
United Press, at the New York ofhces
this morning, cleared up some OF the
missing details OF the great ocean
tragedy OF the wrecked Titanic. II
shows plainly that Capt Haddock
must have been certain from the mo-
ment he received the first appeal for
aid that the emergency was great. II
will also lessen the fears of many oil
the near relatives OF the victims OF
the tragedy that the bodies or their
loved ones would be lost forever. IL
the recovery of the bodies had been
left until the vessels that left Halifax
today reached teh scene many must
have sunk forever while others must
have been torn TO pieces by the grind
ing ice foes that dot the scene.
Whether Capt Haddock received
the real story OF the events that i'm
mediately preceded the terrible dis
aster and loss of the first vessel
afloat is known only to himself, his
wireless operator and the officials OF
the White Star line.
The striking feature Of the whole
tragic AFFAIR is the admission OF i'm
potency on the part or the great Olym-
pic. whose crown as the largest ship
afloat was restored by the horrifying
disaster. Like Vice-President Frank
lin, Capt. Haddock apparently be-
lieved at the outset that the great
Titanic would keep afioat until help
could come. and for several hours
at least he must have rushed his
steamer northward at top speed re-
CARELESS OF consequences, that he
might be able TO rescue the splendid
ships company.
Then when they finally picked up"
the Carpathia. came the realization
that II was all In vain: that the
Titanic was no more and that the
sea had claimed It's toll. II is strik-
ing coincidence that II should have
been the sister ship OF the wrecked
giantess that brought woe to the
! many and Joy to some as the relaying
stations sent the list OF the saved and
showed conclusively how many were
missing

PISTOL WEAPON USED
WIFE FINDS LETTER TO SHERIFF
GIVING REASONS FOR DEED,
PLANNED MONTHS AGO.
Western Newspaper Union New, Service

Paonia. Colo.-Just nineteen months
after he had decided to kill himself
and children because he said he had
been prosecuted by a secret society
which desired to keep him from tell
ing what he knew about murder
committed fifteen years ago. in Flint
Michigan, Charles e. Fox killed his
three children, ages six and four years
aid sixteen months, then committed
suicide.
Fcx, according to a letter he had
written, but never mailed, to Sheriff
Williams, March 26. 1911. planned to
killed two children and himself, to be
freed from taunts and threats OF his
enemies. What prompted him to
change his mind at that time is pug
xling the officers.
In the letter found near Foxs body
Fox spoke of but two children, but
just before he snuffed out three inno-
cent lives and his own he scratched
ou, the word two" and inserted
''thrae." The third child was born
three months after the writing of the
letter.
The home. noted for miles around
US happy one, was reritable char
nel-house when the wife returned and
found her offspring and husband ly-
ing in pools of blood. She had gone
to Paonia to purchase groceries and
upon her return found the house Sc
curely locked She broke in a window
and the sight of her little ones and
spouse lying cold in death drove her
into Mysteries.
"Oh, God, i wish he had waited un-
til ! came home and had taken me
with him and my dear little babies"
sobbed the woman. as she threw her
sell on the floor and beat it until the
blood oozed from her wounded fingers.
A physician was called and succeeded
In Quieting her.
The sheriff was notified. At first 1t
was thought that some outsider had
