Especial Correspondence OF Chicago Tr1buac.1
ST. LOUIS, June II.
The collision On Seventh street this morn-
irg between troops and citizens will be SO
fully reported By telegraph between your reg.
nlar and special dispatches, rs to leaye little
to add by letter. This collision is deeply de-
piored by Union men, as 1t gives the seces-
e.on'sts here an opportunity to open their
months against the Federal troops, aud viii
necessarily require 4 larger force to remain
here and in this vicinity than II 1t had not o.
turred. Ever since the departure Of General
Lyon and his expedition In gust of Claib.
Jacksonville 6eceesionihts have been growing
holder ana bolder. The announcement to.
day that the Federal forces In the city have
dwindled down from u, 900 to 4; LOCO, has given
thcp q great deal Of satisfaction, aud on top
of that the collision this morning mikes them
quite defiant As to the occurrence itself
there Is an abundance Of evidence that the
troops we're fred upon before they fired them
selycs-but there vas an accident twenty
seconds before, which gaTe S color to the be-
lief Of many Unionlsts TINT tbs firing vas un-
provoked, or At least the result Of anisappre-
hc1eion.
