NV YeRK, May ia Worlds Wash
ington special says A caucus was held
Friday night at Senator Pomsroy'a resi-
dence, ~ which the radicals decided upon
a vote to-day. The decision of tho caucus
had made the friends Of the impeachment
very confident. Theodore Tilon, who APP
pears hold confidential relations with the
radical wing Of the Senate, declares that
conviction IS sure, and GsoIgs Wilkes is
putting up more money upon the strength
OF tho same opinion. Senator Wiley, hith-
otto reckoned on tho sids OF scquttal, is
still doubtful. Per contrs, Senator Ross,
hitherto reckonsd on the side Of conviction,
is also thought 70 be doubtful. Senator
Fowler will surely, according to every re.
port, vote not guilty on oil She articles.
-m still confident that the Prssid snt will
get clear, but the vote will be very close.
