prom the Chicago Tribune, Aug. co.

Four OF the murdered victims of the Sag &C.
cident were buried in Springfield yesterday.
and two in this city. One more has died, and
three others are declared by the doctors to be
unable to live longer than a day or two. This
will swell the death-list TO 81. The Coroner's
investigation is still under way. One of the
witnesses examined was a farmer, who saw
Murderer Beane after the collision, and was
told by him that he forgot" all about the
passenger train. The testimony Of the en-
ginecr Of the freight train, whe was brought
in from prison under guard. gave no new in
formation except some facts concerning Con-
ductor Beane's general incfficiency, whom he
said ne did not consider a competent man.
His efforts to throw the blame on his superior
were manifest. He repeated the story of the
loss Of time by his watch. bnt did not make il
any more plausible than at first.

"Leave them here; it won't rain to-

abandoned its time-card and endeavored to
make another station, the conductor thereby
mourning the hazard, if not the certainty, OF .
collision, with open eyes. By the rules Of the
road, the conductor and engineer are made
Jointly responsible for the running of their
trains. The coal train was q regular train, as
was the passenger train. The latter had been
running on this time for several years, and the
former for more than Q year. The conductor
Of the coal train had had charge Of it during all
this time, and knew perfectly well the running
time Of this particular passenger train, which
he met every trip. 1t is, therefore, as yet
utterly inexplicable why he should have left
Lemont, or why the engineer should have
allowed him to do so. The managers OF the
railroad claim that both the conductor and
the engineer were efficient and experienced
men, and say that they have ascertained that
they were perfectly sober at the time of the
collision. This only adds to the mystery
| which surrounds their action. A plausible
| explanation which has been advanced is. that,
| as it WAS Saturday night, the men were anx-
ions to reach home as carly as possible. and
took greater risks than they would have taken
at any other time, but this seems perfectly
incredible. So far there has been no explana-
| ton which relieves the conductor and
engineer of the coal train from fiendish
| recklessness, the criminality OF which

A Madrid special to the New York Herald
says: Further complications have arisen from
the interference of the Prussian frigate in
Spanish affairs. Eight hundred Spanish
sailors, who were sent by the Government
from Alicante to Escambrata to take possess
sion of the iron-clads Vittana and Alamanca,
were refused possession by Capt Werner on
the ground that there was no authority from
Berlin to deliver them up. The sailors we're
obliged to remain in a position where they
were menaced and at the mercy Of the insur-
gents. Tberenpon Werner declared the sail
ors under his protection, as well as the steam
er that brought them. The insurgents de-
clared that the steamer must leave Escambrata,
or they would open fire upon her without re-
gard to the Prussians. Thus, by small degrees,
Werner's first blunder leads him further in
the quarrel. The Republicans of Spain have
almost entire possession Of the Province of
Navarro. The report il current at Paris that

Mr.. Beeoher on Compulsory Educa-
ton.

The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher
leclured last Monday evening al AS
ISOLATION Halt. New York, on Com
pulsory Education" The lecturer
was received with applause. Mr..
Beecher referred to the rising feeling
and growth of sentiment among all
peoples in Europe and on the Amer
can Continent in favor Of education,
which would be compelled by q sys-
tematIc scheme, erected by the gov
ernmcnts Of counties in which educa-
ton was not diffused. England was
moving from this system from top
to bottom, and there was only one
question in America, and that was,
shall the State or the Church edQ-
cate the massesf Education has
raised Germany to peerless posi-
tion among the nations Of the world.
Great political power could not be
had without education in o nation.
In the German army ninety eight
per cent. Of the rank and file could
read ond write. but how did the Gaze
stand with the French army2 AT
the outside forty-eight per cent. Of
the army which marched on the
Rhine could read and write only
The education OF the people made

it's wealth and power. No man,
how, yer lowly in birth, could be
kept 10 the ranks providing he bad
brains. That was Gods eternal law.
This nation was heterogeneous
one, and its safety would be impoe.
sible if it's people were not educated.
Mr. Beecher took occasion to declare
himself in favor of. W. man suffrage if
'hcir votes were cast intelligent Y
Unlver' al education was O foregone
conclusion and it. was not a material
necessity that the State should en-
force a general tax for the educ alton
of its youth. The speaker wanted

that they might earn their living,

Paper Money and Small Pox.
From the Loui.,llle Courier youruaI.l

From the Louisville Ccurier Journal)
During the prevalence of small
pox in this city several instances
have been known in which the sprt
of the disease was carried by the
passage OF money from a house in
fected with the contagion. In many
cases infected money is started into
circulation through toe drug-stores !;
at least il is there deposited oftener
than at any other place, when q
neighboring household is invaded by
the plague. 10 order to avert the
evils which are likely to arise from
this source, DR.. ]. B Barnum has in.
stituted system in his drugstore
of fumigating all the money which
comes from any doubtful person or
locality. This is done by simply put
ting he m oney in box and placing
with it a vessel containing a solution
Of bromine. The bromine is very
destructive in its effec s, and is SAID
to burn the virus wherever it touch
