tVAsmMiTox.Oct. 10 --The big build
ing of the War, Navy and St^te depart
ments is astir with the exciting news
from Venezuela. Tardy official con
firmation came of the success of (Jen.
Crespo after a battle. The dispatches
are very meager, but they are taken to
fully corroborate the unofficial infor
mation of a bloody engagement in
which otioo men were left dead on the
"field and many high government offic
ials were captured. If this be true the
outbreak that has been smouldering
for months in Venezuela has culmin
ated in a buttle which exceeds in ex
tent unything since the conflict be
tween Chile and I’eru. •
The dispatches were taken to Presi
dent Harrison as fast as received, and
later they were considered at the Cab
inet meeting.
The first dispatch received was sent
by Admiral Walker on Wednesday, the
day on which it is supposed the de
cisive battle was fought, resulting in
the virtual overthrow of the old gov
ernment by (ien. Crespo. For some
reason, which the Navy department
cannot conjee tire, the dispatch was
delayed and die. not reach Washington
until yesterday. The second dispatch,
which it is surmised Admiral Walker
sent immediately after the result' of
battle was known, is as follows:
It is reported that an engagement
has taken place, resulting in the total
defeat of the government and the cap
ture of the Venezuelan commander-in
chief near Curacas. Revolutionists
will occupy Caracas Thursday.
Soon afterward the following dis
patch, duted yesterday, was received
also from Admiral AValker:
"President and Venzuelan Minister
have abandoned Venezuela. The revo
lutionists successful.”

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
The Oltjr Crowded—llulldlug Alloeir
lion Con creel—Another Heavy
Subscription Fund.
Sr. Loris, Oct. !>.—The fall festivities
rcaclieil the climax of their interest this
week. Fifty thousand straDgers
crowded the streets, and tried the
temper of policemen and ear conduct
ors. The exposition was at its most
attractive point; the turnstiles out at
the fair ground clicked 'incessantly:
the gorgeous parade of the Veiled
Prophet and the illuminations pro
vided the most brilliant night specta
cles. and all the theaters had strong
hills. The hotels, big and little, were
all full, and the signs “Furnished
IIooibs" had been taken from the
hoarding houses within three miles of
the exposition building. Hot as the
campaign is here, with the State head
quarters of the three parties in the
city, the political excitement was not
lelt this week in the press of the
throng that cared only for pleasure,
and but for the newspapers those out
side of political circles could not have
told that a fiercely contested local and
National election is approaching.
St. Louts owes the rapid settling up
of its suburbs to the scores of building
associations, which keep the mechan
ics at, work all the year round, putting
up homes for people, of small means.
New associations are constantly being
organized, and the most solid ones
think that the time has now come to
have this system of investment pro
tected by the State like the banks.
Accordingly, a convention of the State
league of building associations, repre
senting 400 of these organizations, lias
been in session here most of this week,
preparing a memorial to the next Leg
islature, which will ask for the estab
Iishinent of a bureau of inspection, and
the exemption of association share
from taxation. If tlicse laws are se
cured. Missouri next year will forge
ahead of all the other States in the
l'nion on the score of the number anil
wealth of its building associations.
For the second time within five
years, the citizens of St. Lonis have
put their hands into their pockets and
paid for the organization of a special
sanitary corps, to re-enforce the citv
authorities in that most important
work in all great cities, keeping the
streets clean/ The city lias grown so
rapidly since the time of that first citi
zens' cdmmitlcc, that this one wiil
have to spend much more money to ac
complish the same object, and, as it is
1 intended to keep the special corps at
work all through next year, till the
winter, the. cost will hardly be less than
SI (KM 100. Hut the work will make St.
l.ouis a cleaner city than Washington
even, nnd to achieve this result is well
worth the money that will be spent.
The streets were made impassable
by the sight-seers Tuesday night, when
the prophet and his retinue paraded
with a score of tableaus on floats, il
lustrating tlic history of the Louisiana,
from which territory Missouri sprung
originally. The twenty-second float’
the last in the line, was received
everywhere with shouts of applause.
It represented anativc Missourian tak
taking the oath of ofliec as president
of the fnited States in MM2. After
the parade the prophet and liis suite,
who had been the figures in the tab
leaus, went to tile Merchants' Ex
change llall, where they, still in their
quaint costumes, attended the hall,
which is the social event of the year.’
A good illustration of the rapid
change now taking place in suburban
property, is given by the history of a
piece of land eight miles away from
the city limits. There are eighty acres
in it. Ten years ago. it was such a
productive farm in which to raise sup
plies for the city, that the owner re
fused #20.000 for it. Its value as farm
ing land decreased fast, till a few
months ago it was sold for #100 an
acre. The speculators who bought it
sold it to a syndicate of city men for
#10,000. They cut if up into building
lots, sold them at auction, and cleared
#20,000. The electric ears, running
tong distances west, have made possible
auch transformations.

Cokkkymi.i.k. Kan . Oct. 7.—The
streets are packed with crowds of ex
cited people from the adjoining'coun
try, attracted by the Dalton tragedy
of yesterday, l'our dead band its iie
in eoilins at the city jail with a guard
about litem to see that they are not
uisturbed by the crowds attracted to
view them through morbid curiosity.
The stairway leading to the room
where Kmmelt Daiion lies is sur
rounded by a crowd of men and women
endeavoring to persuade the guard to
uiiow them to see him. He is weak
from the ioss of biood. In conversa
tvith a reporter he said that Bob put
up the job last Saturday ana prevailed
upon the rest to take part in it. though
tncy were opposed to it. believing it
not to be feasible. They were short
of funds and were preparing to ieave
the country, as they were being ciosely
pressed.
The Domes oi lloo and Oration Dal
Dalton. Tom Evans ami Jack Moore
were taken to Kmmett Dalton's bed
side ibis morning' and he ideniitied
them. He sbed tears when be saw his
dead brothers.
The names of the last two are not
their reai names, which are withheld
from the public for what the officials
say are good reasons.
The dead bandits were buried here
this afternoon in the city cemetery in
a lot owned by the Dalton family. The
bodies were carried to the graveyard
in wagons without mourners or sym
pathizing friends.
The robbers secured $20. 240 from
the First National bank and $o. 000
from Condon's. The amount recovered
exceeds this. confirming Emmett's
statement that the robbers had $900
of their own money. It is now I
thought that only five men were en
gaged in the attempted robbery. If
this is true then the entire gang has
been exterminated. '
The body of Lucius Baldwin was
taken to Burlington, Kas.. this morn
ing, ana that of Charles Brown will oe
taken io Hurley. S. D. The funerals
of Marshal Conneiiy aud George Cu
bine were heid inis afternoon.
Emmett Daiton has made a sworn
statement that Bob and Oration were
concerned in the California robbery
and also in the Adair robbery of sev
eral weeks ago.
ST. r.u l, Minn.. Oct. G.— A Still
water special to the Dispatch says the
reporter who this morning' eaiied at
the penitentiary, asked Coie Younger
as to any relationship existing be
tween himseif and the notorious Dal
ton gang, and Coie Younger said he
was not sure of any relationship, but
he continued. ■ I think a third cousin
of mine married a Daiton in Kansas
some years ago. but I know absolutely
nothing aoout the Kentucky family.
1 cannot see where anyone got the
authority to say that oecause these men
were relatmi to 1-rank anu Jesse James
they were related to me. That state
ment is absurd. I am not related to
the James boys, ana previous to my
coming to this prison, sixteen years
.ago, there existed a bitter haired be
tween Jesse James and myseif. "
(ii.THiiiE. OkI.. Oct. G.—William
Daiton. a brother of the famous out
laws. passed through here todav on
his way to Coffeyviiie. Kas.. to tatce
charge of the dead bodies of his
brothers, and to see Emmett, the
wounded brother, who wired that he
desired to talk to him before he died.
Wiiiinm Daiton formerly lived in Cal
ifornia, and is a rather fine, prosper
ous looking man. He is third’ son’ of
a family of ten. and lives with his
mother on a farm near here. He re
fused to talk much and seemed almost
heartbroken at the violent death which
his brothers had met.
At 11 o'clock tonight Emmett Dal
ton was still alive. He suffers - great
agony from his wounds and the physi
cian attending him does not think he
will be able to survive another day.
William Dalton arrived this evening
from his home in Oklahoma and is in
constant attendance at his brother s
bedside.
Cashier Ayers is resting easy tonight
and will probably recover.
The party who started in pursuit of
Alio Ogee returned early this morning
having lost the track of the fugitive
bandit in the wild country below here.
Ogee, it is known, was badly wounded. I
and it is believed ho wiil turn up in i
some Oklahoma town, where he wiii 1
probably go to get medical treatment.
At midnight Emmett is slowiy sink
ing and there is no orobabiiity of hi.s
surviving beyond two or three hours.
His brother remains constantly at his
bedside and watches him as fiithfuily
and tenderly as if the dying bandit
were an innocent boy instead of a '
hardened ruffian.

to mane them ready for the secretary
