The Contest in Illinois.

The concurrent reports from all parts of
the State are TO the effect that the Liberal
cause has never been more hopeful in llli-
nois than at this time. From all quarters
and sections of the State come assurances
that if the Liberals Of Chicago will poll their
vote, the State will be carried not only for
Koernor but for Greeley, and secure q ms-
iori,y in both branches of the General As
sembJy. The contest for the government Of
the State of Illinois seems to depend largely
on this county. Outside of Cook County, it
is understood the Republicans concsde their
State ticket is behind, and they are vehe-
mently demanding that Cook County shall
give Grant 5000 majority or the State will
be Loaf.
These are the indications as reported
There is no doubt whatever felt outside of.
this county that Koerner will beat Oglesby,
and that Bsveridge will fall far behind
OglesbY. There never has been such ani-
nation in the Liberal ranks as at this time.
ALI through the State they are receiving ac-
QUESTIONS to their numbers. The active ex-
ertions making by the Chicago Times faction
to create diversion in favor of IN obody and
Adams" have only aroused feeling of in
dignation. Every vote which Grant and
Oglesby receive from that quarter will cost
hardly less than $100, paid, no. to the voter,
bat to the self-constituted brokers who seIl
the vote to the Republics Committee.
Our friends in Chicago. therefore, have
perhaps the whole question in their hands
This city ought to give, and if the full vote
is polled can give, very heavy Liberal ma
jority. 1t is within the power of the Demo
Gratis and Liberal Republicans of this city, il
they will poll their vote, to send each ot
their Congressional candidates out of the
city, with large majority. Here, then, is
the place for work during the present week
The forty thousand voters in this CITY have
it in their power to give the State to Gree
ley or to Grant; to elect Koernsr or Ogles-
by to elect three Republican or three Liber
al members Of Congress, and elect a control
ling number of members Of the Genera
Assembly. All that ia repaired to secure I
Liberal victory in Illinois is to get out th'

The Indirect Claims.

Reports is relation to the question of indi-
rect claims differ. The Boston Advertisers
correspondent says:
The apprehension that some modification
or explanation of our case at Geneva is about
to be made appears to be gaining ground, and
is greatly strengthened by the positive state
ments of the prominent New York papers this
evening to that effect. Senator Sumner re-
marked yesterday that the administration
would receive its severest blow next week.
and when asked if he meant the Cincinnati
convention replied no that Secretary Fish's
last letter to Earl Granville, which would un-
doubtedly be made public in the English
Parliament in the debate next week, would
show that this government is receding from
its ground on the Alabama question.
The Journal correspondent takes differ
ent view of the matter. He says:
The sensational stories telegraphed hence
about the position of the Government on the
question of indirect damages are without au-
thority, and substantially without truth.
They are the result of the movements of GER
tain parties here who have been agitating the
question for political effect. The demand
for indirect damages has not been withdrawn,
and will not be Withdrawn. What the Gov
eminent wants is decision of the question,
and it will do all in its power to sustain the
arbitration at Geneva. If the British Gov
eminent refuses decision, upon that Gov
eminent will rest the responsibility Of break
ing the Treaty of Washington.

The Coliseum in Ruins.

About quarter past eight o'clock last eve
ming people in various parts of the city were
startled by hearing what sounded like peal
of thunder coming from the southwest The
sky was perfectly cloudless and the stars
shining clearly. People had heard the old
saying of being struck by lightning on fair
day, but thunder in clear night was
conundrum. People living in the vicinity of
the Coliseum for the coming jubilee we're
quickly aware of the solution of the problem,
however, as they saw the gigantic truss,
walls and towers of the incipient building
Frustrated in mass Of rubbish. The report
Of the terrible crash was heard even as far as
South Boston, and in very short time the
rumor was in circulation throughout the city
that the Coliseum was down. The natural
result was that crowd of varying size was
collected on the grounds from a few minutes
after the downfall until late hour last night.
The rumor was found too true, and the labor
of several weeks and the most difficult part
of the whole great undertaking was fiattened
in jitfy to confused shapeless mass of tim
Der and boards, over which the curious Wis
itors clambered to see the exact extent of the
damage. The wind always blowing with
more or less severity on the Back Bay in
creased in volume yesterday afternoon, and
about four o'clock at least one hundred and
fifty feet of the eastern wall of the building
next to the Providence Railroad and parallel
with it was blown down. The wall was abou,
forty feet in hight, and was laid fiat on the
ground Matters then assumed a serious
look. The wind was increasing in violence
with little prospect of a calm. In this con-
dtion work was abandoned as usual at abou
six O'clock, and the charge Of the groundl

sentation at Geneva of the British counter
case at the arbitrators under the 4th article
of the treaty of Washington, Of May Sth,
1871:
Earl Granville to Sir Edward Thornton.
Foreign Office, April 7th, 1872,
Sir General Schenck informed me on
the ed Of March that he had written to MIR.
Fish, and told MIN that he had said to me in
confidence that he thought his government
would not object to Her Majesty's govern
ment putting in their counter-case before the
arbirators without pre- udice to the position
which Her Majesty's government are now
maintaining, and that the government of the
United States would accede to such an I'M
Outstanding, and he stated the expectation of
obtaining from Mr.. Fish on the I'd or Sd of
April by telegraph his view on the point,
On the 9Th instant Gen, Schenck wrote to
me that he had now received Mr.. Fishs re-
ply confirming his opinion. Mr.. Fish says:
Gen. Schenck informed me that it is the
British government is bound under the treaty
to file counter-case, and that their doing SO
will not prejudice any position they have
taken. nor effect any position of the United
States, but that the rights of both parties
will be the same after the filing as before.
Gen. Sehenck, whom have seen to-day on
his return from Paris, has verbally confirmed
to me this statement. Gen. Schenck after
wards said he had no objection to my COM
municating his letter to my colleagues. or
indeed announcing it to Parliament.
