diamond expert that precious gems re-
ally existed in the diamond basin region
in owyhee county has created a great
furry in this place. Kunze came in
from the basin Thursday and left for
Chicago He said that he had found a
diamond-bearing ledge near the mouth
Of Rabbit creek, which extended nearly
to the summit and crossed the diamond
basin. There was no doubt In his mind
that genuine diamonds had been dis
covered. All OF the lodges he found
were located by Nampa people. Before
Kunze departed for Chicago, where he
will form n mining company, he left
word that II any person disturbed the
ground or ledge he should be immedi-
ately notified by wire.
People are hoclting in there from all
parts, forgetting that there are no

express on the Santa Fe road which
left here at 11:30 Thursday night, was
wrecked between and o'clock yester-
day morning two miles east of Hustled,
a small station fifteen miles north OF
this city. Several coaches left the track
and plunged down an emba nAment
fifty feet high, piling up the carr in
confused heap. Fire broke out almost
Immediately and added its horror DO the
scene The train was running 4t the
rate Of forty miles an hour when the
disaster occurred and some Of the cars
were smashed into fragments. II was
marvellous, considering the character
Of the wreck, that the consequences to
passengers was not more serious. Two
boys are dying at the hospital IN this
city. They are believed to be tho only
ones fatally injured, though every body
on the train was more or less severely
hurt
The first that anyone on board the
train knew of the trouble was when the
cars began jumping along the ties
Only the baggage car, which was next
to the engine, remained on the track
The express car turned on its side and
rolled down the embankment standing
on its head at the foot of the slope
completely upside down. The smoking
car followed and Immediately took fire.
The flames spread to the next car
which was the day coach. The front
end of the day coach was up on top Of
the embankment and the other end at
bottom. This car caught fire also and
both were completely destroyed. The
accident is ascribed by some to spread
