The legal squubblo as to the ownership of he diamonds found in the pdsesslon of u nan named Dye or Dyro when arrested by thoOmahu police a few days ago , is still on. Dye was arrested In Omaha for some minor oftcncc , nnd when searched a valuable adlu's set ot diamonds was found In his jockcts , consisting of earrings and pin , Dye claimed that ho found them whllo working for Mike Wenthorby In this city , and that they wrie found secreted in a water closet in the i car of UVathcrby's steblo on Broadway. The diamonds were evidently stolen , but there was no evidence to show that Dye was the thief , but oh the contrary ho was vouched for very strongly by several of his former em ployes In this city , among them Mr. Wenth- orby. Chief of Police Carey went over to Omaha and had the man released and the diamonds turned over to hint with the inten tion of holding them hero until their owner could bo found. Some thmi has passed and tno owner has not appeared to prove property , and it has occurred to Mr. 'Uenth- erbj'ithat ns the diamonds were found on his premisses by one of his employes ho hnd as good a right to thorn as anybody else , with a few points in his favor. AVith this understanding ho commoiiccn nn actloh in replevin and cited the chief to appear nnd show cause why ho should not turn over the Jewels to him. Before - fore the action was commenced Chief Carey had turned over the diamonds to the Ne braska olllcers. The case has pone from ono justice couit to another on change of venue , and yesterday It reached Justice Burnett from Schurz' court.

The Hock Island llyor came in from the cast yesterday morning ftu hour late and the ap- pcaranco of the pilot and the front end of the engine indicated that something had hap pened moro Important than chilly air to cause the delay. The pilot was battered and broken and there wore traces of blood on the platform. The explanation that the train had struck n farmer's ' wagon near Shelby whllo running at n high rate of speed. The farmer attempted to drive over the crossing Just as the train had reached a point less than 100 yards away. The engine struck his wagon nearly In ( ho centre ar.J scattered it in every direction. The horses wora killed nnd the man received injuries Unit nro pronounced fatal. The train wus stopped , and the crew took cuio ot the wounded man taking him back to Shelby. The accident caused an hour's delay. No blame Is attached to the company. The whlbtlo hud been sounded at the usual point before reaching the crossing and the bell was ringing as the train approached. It Is sup posed the farmer neither heard nor saw the approaching train until too late to suvo him self by stopping nnd attempted to urge his horses forward In the hope that ho could clear the track before the train reached him. All that could bo learned Irom the trainmen jcstcnlny was that the name of the injured man was Taguc , und that ho lived neat Shelby. Kvprylwily Is Invited. The second entertainment of Rev.
