! Still Seeking Clue To Railroad Wreck Continue Probe Os Walton Train Crash Wahoo. Ind.. Jan. -(UP)- A state police detective investigating the derailing of a fast passenger train which killed four here said today the FBI, railroad dehM-tives. and state troopers still were looking for the “first really good clue " The Pennsylvania railroad's “I’nion” struck a (bit-pound bale of wire «s it roared into this small town Monday night and jumped the track when the wire caught on a switch Four persons were killed and more than 30 injured. William Larch, Lima. 0.. remained In a serious condition at Caos county hospital in UrgansportDot tors said he was partially paralyzed by injuries. Moat of the other injured have been t eleased and the few remaining bad only minor injuries. Police believe the wire was plated on the track, either by vandal* or theives who fled when the train approached. “But we haven't got a thing yet.” said Lt. John R. Fishe, of the Indiana state police Fisher said tachniciatu would attempt to lift singe. prints from an iron rod which ran through the bale. ”1 doubt very much If we get any prints.” he said, “the surface of the I iron rod is not smooth enough." An Inquest into the four deaths was scheduled Friday morning in the Casu county courthouse at boganspoi t.

State troopers guarded the accident scene last night and watched a group of bales of wire front which live wire caused the accident came.

In iny opinion. la a most unethical and pule Itelty-ctonacioua servant of the people, released the transcript of a private discusalon held In hi* chamber*. This discussion was highly confllential and had nothing u> do with any court proceedings. He conveniently neglected to say that during the conference he himself had declared that had we Mt i»een ixiraine Day and Leo Durocher—and if my wWe had delayed her Juarez divorce for one month—he never would have lieen concerned with the case at all ■' Durocher said there was an "outsiJe wtiaesa" present * — Mia* Day's attorney.

He said h«- and Miss Dey were “legally man and wife and Intend to remain so as long as we live.” Dockweiler said: “Mr. Duroeber isn't a party to the proceedings.
