new form of government was the work
salutary and conservative character Of
this principle emerged clearly from the
smoke of party conflicts. Marshall was
Federalist; but the Republicans saw
that he was one only within the limits
of the Constitution, and the Federal
lists found that he would not transcend
these limits. Partisan fury ceased to
rage against the Supreme Court; and
it's power Of veto. greater than that of
the executive, came to be respected.
Party questions were limited, by the
exclusion of all plans and measures not
clearly within the Constitution, to the
ordinary Subjects of legislation and adj
ministration, Schemes and policies
that have. racked and wrecked many
governments simply could not, under
our system, become the subject Of
popular agitation. 1t was a magnifi-
cent achievement to give to this
American empire, as Marshall was the
first to call 1t, peace and freedom from
political controversies concerning the
fundamental institutions upon the per-
manrnt pres sryatlon OF which the hap.
piness Of any people depends; to sup
press appeals TO prejudice, to passion,
to impulse, by compelling the submis-
sion Of legislation and governmental
policy of the tribunal of reason, in
terpreting body Of written principles
and knowing no other authority. Only
lawyers can understand what the great
Chief Justice accomplished in making
| the Supreme Court court of law
but every citizen should learn what We
1--WE to him for making it one Of the
coordinate powers of the general gov.
eminent. The Constitution declared
the rights and Liberties of the people
but John Marshall transformed the
Constitution from q scroll of parch'
ment into vital force.

ROCKFORD. H.. Dec. 15.-Failure on
the part Of q conductor to obey orders is
supposed TO have been the cause of a
head-end collision on the Illinois Central
Railroad, between Irene and Perryville,
early to-day. The two trains were east
bound passenger train No. and a freight
train from Chicago going westward. Eight
people are dead or missing and eleven in
jured. The known dead are:
RICHARD ORAISBY, Chicago, engineer
Of passenger train.
JAMES REARDON, Freeport fireman
Of the passenger train.
ROBERT THOMPSON, Dubuque, Amer
ican Express messenger
J. ". FUNK, Chicago, brakeman Of
passenger train.
DAVID BEHAN. Freeport. engineer Of
freight.
EDWARD CAREY. Freeport, freight
fireman.
Missing and supposed to be dead: News
boy on passenger train, name unknown;
section foreman from Irene, name un-
known.
The seriously injured, so far as names
could be ascertained, are: H C. Well
bow, taken TO Rockford City Hospital,
condition critical: D. r Abrredent, Chi
cago, cut and bruised; J. H. Quinlan, pas
senger conductor, cut and bruised,
crushed about the chest. taken to Rock

3. Keefe, Sioux City, Iowa, head cut Sc
verely; Frank Stadleman, New Athens,
Ill. cut about head and arms: Thomas
Hendricks, New Athens, cut and bruised
and hair scorched of.
Crash Together at Full Speed.
The trains met in a slight bend IN the
track, both running at full speed. The
smoker, express and baggage cars were
piled on the locomotives, pinning down the
occupants. Only three Of the half-dozen
persons in the baggage car escaped. The
others were penned in, and If not roasted
70 death were instantly killed and their
bodies entirely consumed. All efforts of
the survivors to rescue the victims were
unavailing. The flames drove them back
at every point.
The temperature was 20 degrees below
zero and an icy wind was blowing across
the prairie, the point where the wreck oc-
.xcurred, a shallow cut, affording no protec-
~tion. The injured were without hats and
suffered terribly. By the united efforts of
the survivors the way car was pushed
back from the wreckage to escape the
flames and the injured were placed on the
hunks inside.
Two hours elapsed before any relief was
at hand. Then an engine arrived from the
east and pulled the way car to Irene,
three miles distant A relief train from
Rockford arrived at the scene Of the
wreck at 1880 a. m. In the meantime the
injured had been brought back from Irene
IN the way car and were transferred to
the relief train and brought to Rockford.
All are doing well except H. G. Wellman
Of Chicago, who is in critical condition.
Wrecking trains have been at work to-
day and viii have the tracks clear to-
night. Six bodies were recovered from the
debris. but were charred beyond recogni-
ton.
