COULDN'T STOP THEM.
Two Trains Crash Together on the North
ern Pacific.

ern Pacific.
Mfssoula, July 17.-There was a rail-
way accident at Gold Creek this after
noon that will send two locomotives to
the repair shops for a while and will
cause some uneasiness on the part of
the trainmen until matters are cleared
up. Nobody was injured and the track
was cleared in time to prevent any seri-
Gus delay to traffic. The eastbound
flyer, which left Missoula on time. was
not delayed at ALL
From what can be learned of the ac-
cident here, the facts are: No. S. the
eastbound local freight, was on the
main line at Gold Creek when No. 81,
the westbound local, approached from
the opposite direction. No. 81 should
have gone in on the siding, but her air
brakes refused to work and Engineer
Semmens could not stop his train. The
engine crashed into that of IS, which
was in charge of Engineer George Will
son, smashing the two engines and
wrecking two empty cars on one train
and derailing two loaded boxcars on the
other. The eastbound train was in
charge of Conductor Britton and No. 81
was being run by Conductor McEach-
ran. From what can be learned here
the fault lies with the air on No. 81,
which for some reason did not work
when applied.
There is quite a steep grade at this
point and without the air it would be
impossible to stop the train.

Listened to Trouble.

Missoula, July 1.-THE county COM
missioners listened to a lot of trouble
to-day, but came out of it all right, and
the reductions that were made in the
assessment list are not serious and will
not affect the general standing of the
county. Some of the kickers went away
wishing that they had remained at
home, for the commissioners raised
their assessments instead of reducing
them. All in all, 1t was about an even
break, and the assessor still smiles The
session of the commissioners as a board
of equalization will continue for several
days.

Jerome Reporter: Some little ex- citement has been caused at Kingman over the discovery of coal at Yucca, a pumping station west of there. The Sinta Fe has had a force of men em- pliyed there in boring well, and at a denth of POO feet large strata of coal
 was encountered. as well as porphine.
 Underlying this, water was obtained.
 The country around Yucca is of the
 anne desert character that character
 zes that portion of the territory and the feasibility of boring for water there was much doubted. Indications are that the valley which Yucca is in IS of one vast underlying coal belt, md the advantages to he derived rom it are inestimable. Lack of fuel has long been drawback in develop iog that really rich mineral belt, as . he high price of coal has m9de smelt- ing an impossibility and forced the mine owners to ship their ore products cast.

thaw had the effect of loosening the
sides of a small noun tain which over

The course of the river was changed
completely. The district is sparsely
settled. and no lives have been lost, so

ever, were caught in the flood and car
ried away, and thousands of acres
of valuable land will never be
reclaimed from the muddy waters of
the Frazer in its new course.
