I don't have the spare time to debug your parser for you, but I suggest you try starting with the Antlr grammar in E-on-CL (which, despite the context, compiles to Java). Have a look at
<https://github.com/kpreid/e-on-cl/tree/master/antlr> or clone the git repository. 

This grammar is part of an E implementation with a substantial test suite. It is derived from the Antlr grammar in the E-on-Java distribution but has had a lot of further work.
