Within three minutes of tho time he entered the courtroom the prisoner was taken back to Jail. In the Jail Lehna talked free'y. He said the sentence was heavier than he expected, but "it didn't make much difference," and he was "willing to take his medicine."

The Inves tigation by the officials of the Boston and Maine railroad of the collision of trains on the Concord division near Canaan Sunday morning by which 25 passengers of the Quebec express lost their lives and nearly 30 were Injured, occupied the entire time of heads of the system. General Superintendent C. E. Lee, and Assistant General Superintendent G. W. Folger, of Boston, with William F. Day, superintendent of the Concord division, examined the records In the train despatchor's office here, and al so made a careful Investigation at Canaan, and other stations along the line of tho Concord division in an ertort to determine Just who was responsible for the blunder by which the two trains were brought together. The proceedings of the examination were seeret but It. Is known that J. A. Crowley, the train despatcher in this city, and Operator Greeley, the man who received the order from the train despatcher at the station in Canaan, were particularly Questioned.

"U is necessary," Mr. Cobleigh said, "to wait until the investigation, which is bfing conducted by the officers of the medical referee. In conjunction with the inquiry of the railroad offi cials, shall have thrown thp blame on some one person." "There Is a possibility," added Mr. Cobleigh, "that witnesses may be tak en before the grand Jury which comes in at Woodsville on Wednesday of this week. This action, however, has not been decided upon." Mr. Cobleigh also suggested that it was likely that the railroad commis sioners might decide to begin an In vestigation of the wreck, and in that case they would probably drop all other business before them and con duct their inquiry immediately. All victims of the wreck have been identified. SPANISH HERO'S MONUMENT. Among the Subscribers Are Governor Magoon and American Officers. Havana. Sept. 17.
