EVANSTON, Ill.,, Nov. 3.-An unusually large
audience assembled at the Baptist Church in
this place, to-day, to witness the performance Of
the rite Of baptism. The gallery and auditorium
we're densely packed with worshippers, and the
services had just commenced, the Rev. F. L.
Chapel officiating, when 4 cracking sound was
heard and, without further Warming the floor
Of the auditorium gave way, precpitating one
half the congregation into the basement, four
teen feet below. The shrieks OF the people, the
binding dust, and the noise, made it a scene of
understandable confusion and horror. Fortunately,
onlytwo persons we're seriously injured. One lady
received severe internal injuries, and student
by the name Of Wood had his foot crushed.
The pews we're piled On top Of the fallen multi
tude, and the mystery is that many we're not
killed.
The floor to the vestibn1e also gave way and
those in the gallery had to be let down into the
basement and then passed up.
The church had been lately removed ftum it's
old site, and has been undergoing repairs. The
carpenter assured the Trustees that it was safe,
and no blame can be attached to them The
coo1ness displayed by the audience Was remark
able. Many are doubtless injured who are not
known.

inches in length, extending downward from th5

One OF the eyes WaB badly disco1ored, as if il
had been struck with blunt instrument. The
clothing was carefully searched, but no money
was found. It is the general belief Of Corcorans
friends that he WAS murdered BY some persons
who observed him display money, and that his
body was then thrown into the river. This belief
is strengthened by the fact that he Was sober,
industrious Citizen, who was never
known to pick quarrel, or have an enemy.

Special Despatch to Tie Chicago Tribune
SENATOR TRuMBuLL At CHARLESTON.
NATION, ILL.,, Nov. 9, 1872.-Ihe largest
political mass meeting Of tho campaign, in
this part OF the State, WAS held in Charles-
ton, this afternoon. The whole east side
Of the Court House square was one solid mass
OF human beings. An excursion train Of twelve
carB, the largest known here since 1856, went
from Mattoou to do honor to the distinguished
speaker, Illinois gifted Senator, Lyman Irum-
bull. At least seven thousand people assem-
b1ed to listen to the truth &s spoken by IN
honest man. The meeting was pr6sided over by
the Hon. o. B. Pictin, who, in words
Of glowing tribute to the man whose
public acts emblazon the brightest pages
OF American history, introduced the dis
tinguished speaker. Mr. Trumbull, for two
hou1a' and hall, in an effort acknowledged to be
the best heard during this caupaignt pointed out
the abuses and corluptionB Of the Administra-
tion, and indicated the only way they can be
corrected, viz, the election Of Greeley and
Brown and the SUCCESS of Liberalism every
where. At the close Of Senator Tr1mbulls
speech, the Hon. James Schofeld WAS loudly
called for, and responded BY convincing speech
to the Democracy. His remarks we're vocifer-
ously applauded, and produced marked effect
upon the audience. A more earnest, enthusi-
aatic gathering never assembled in Coles County.
The Hon. John Cunningham and other Lib
erals Of this county have done noble service
during the campaign, and their reward will come
on next Tuesday, by. 3 rousing majority for
Greeley and Brown and the whole Liberal ticket
in Coles County.
