CAN RECLAIM VALLEY
Expert of Geological Survey Makes Re-
port on Shoshone Reserve.

Expert OF GeOlOBlCal survey MakoS he-
port on Shoshone Reserve.
Special TO The Tribune.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 12.-N.
H. Darton of the Geological Survey has
just submitted report on the geology
of the Wall Creek mountains and the
possibilities of irrigating the Shoshone
reservation in Wyoming, which is to be
thrown open TO settlement next Wednes-
day The report says that Wind river
and the Big Horn streams carry n large
volume of water and flow in fiat bot
toned valleys, along which there is a
moderate acreage; of land thot is i'm
mediately valuable for agriculture.
With a mean average rainfall of about
thirteen inches a. year the climate Is too
arid for the raising Of crops without
irrigation, but a large amount of water
in the two rivers is available for this
use.
Along the bottom lands bordering the
rivers the water can be taken ont in
small bitches, though owing to tho
spring foods there will be difficulty in
maintaining these bitches and especially
their head gates and the amount of land
that can be irrigated by this means Is
small. BY the construction of irrign-
ton canals, however, wide areas of the
basin land could be brought under cul-
tivation, especially if the food waters
use during the dry season. The greater
part Of the region is we'll adapted for
grazing, and this undoubtedly will be
its principal use.
Fully two thirds Of the land bears a
fair growth Of nutritious grasses and
water for stock is within reach except
in few districts

Electric Train.
TWO OF THE VICTIMS
WILL PROBABLY DIE
Failure of Air Brakes to Re-
spOnd Said to Be Cause of
Awful Accident.

OAKLAND, Cal, Aug. 12-The most
disastrous street ear accident III Oak
land in years took place this afternoon
when Telegraph avenue car packed
with pleasure crowds from Berkeley
and Idora park crashed into the Key
route electric train, bound from Pied
mont to the Ferry mole, at the Fortieth
street crossing, A score of persons were
badly injured, at least two of whom are
so badly hurt that death may result.
The injured were nearly all riding in
the street car. Those on the Key route
train were but slightly hurt. On the
street were most of the members of the
San Francisco and Los Angeles ball
teams, who had Just finished a game at
the park.

T. c. CHENEY, Point Richmond, nose

H. l..
leg crushed and a number of minor
hurts.
A defective airbrake on the street
car is said to havo been the cause of
the accident. The hagman at the Key
route crossing signalled the street car
to slow up, but Motorman Pittman was
unable to stop. The front end Of the
electric car struck the front car of the
Key route train near the forward
trucks. The wheels of the trucks of
both cars fouled and the street car was
dragged at right angles from the track,
its entire length, before Motorman Bro
der of the Key route could bring his
train to n stop Every pane Of glass
in the street car was shattered and the
passengers were hurled under the seats
and through the windows. The flying
glass cut the passengers. Motorman
Pittman was pinned under the front
of his car and Passenger st, John was
hurled through the street car window
under the wheels of the Key route
train, where he lay for half an hour be-
fore q detail of the Oakland fire depart

For hours after the accident the scene
was one of indescrbable confusion.
Panic Among Passengers.
The 200 passengers on the Key route
train were in state OF panic. Some of
the injured were carried into the sta
tion, TO a grocery store and private
houses nearby. while others lay on the
sidewalks screaming for help, waiting
the arrival Of doctors and ambulances
to take them to the hospitals.
The passengers on the street car rea-
lized the impending accident, but the
car was a long, closed affair, and only
eight on the small rear platform were
able to jump.
Among those who escaped serious in

fine spring bursts forth. A small
level plot below the spring is M
doubt the exact spot where the
savages slept that night, and there,
suppose, the wounded warrior
died.
The boy reported when he came
back from captivity, that when the
warrior died, they carried his body
up the mountain side, hid it under
a sheyliDg rock at the base of
cliff, and walled it in. Jacob Green
walt told me that he rememb ered
when the skeleton was still there,
but that the last bones disappeared
about SO years ago.
| climbed up the mountain side
to the place, and found the grave,
and it must have taxed the savages
to carry the dead man. The grave
is 500 or 600 feet above the gorge.
The wall has nearly all been torn
away, but the foundation is undis-
turbed. | made a thorough search
for bones, but could find none. De.
caying leaves and sand from the
cliff form several inches of trash
where the body was deposited.

ther exploration of the cliff, We
made our camp that night in the
gorge just below Kilbuck's camp
ing. 1t was a wild, drearv, weird
place to spend night The wind
down the pass was cold and raw,
and the mountain walls and the
dark pines and naples kept the
struggling moon beams at bay

the ravine, where boulders as large
as houses lay piled in confusion.
The scene had been changed but
little since the night the fierce
savages slept there after the massa-
ere, and where the wounded warri-
