CRESPO ET PALACIO
1. The Former Threatens to Cre- . mate the Latter.
ADVANCING UPON CARACAS.
The DictatOr's Forces 0utgenerallsd, and
 the Capital Sure to Fall.

CreSpO's Son iS in Palacio's Power, and
 the Youth Is to be Killed as Soon as the
 City IS Invested - MaraudiRg GanGs of
 Mon Creating TeyrIble Slaughter
 Victoria in . Btate of siege - CrespO
 Changes Ills Quarters.
 BARQUEsIMETo, Venezuela, via CALVES TON, Tex, May 3.-Dictator Palacio's al- legged threat to kill the 23-year-old son of Gen. Crespo as soon as the last-named comes within 8 league of Caracas has reached the headquarters of the revolu- tionists and excited great indignation.
 Gen. Crespo declares if his son is put to death Palacio will burned at the stake in front of the Casa Amarila. ..
 The revolutionists will do all they can to prevent the Dictator from carrying out his threat, but, if he should kill young CrespO, Palacio may expect, if captured, to be cremated.
 Crespo is getting dangerously near to Caracas, but he is not yet prepared to attack it. As stated in previous dis patches, he will not descend on the capi- tai until Victoria has fallen.
 Crespo has completely outgeneraled Palacio's officers. Masked by the noun tainous~ country between Caracas and San Sebastian he has honeycombed the passes and advantageous positions with men, and Guerre, who, with Alayon and others, has rendered Casanas helpless on the prairies in and around Calabozo, has been ordered up to the investment of Victoria.
 Since Saturday night Guerre has been making forced marches from the prairie country. Once he gets across the mountains the slender connection be- tween the capital and Victoria, the only stronghold upon which the Dictator's g hopes rest, is likely to be cut in twain at any moment. When this is done 8 deathblow will be given to Palacio's cause This information comes direct from Gen. Crespo.
 Casanas could be quickly crushed, but Crespo says that Casanas is like 8 rat in c trap and he objects to having him slaughtered. The federalist general thinks that he can save the lives of many of his countrymen by keeping the governments generals and forces at bay until he has operated against Victor ia and Caracas.
 There is 8 great deal of slaughtering going on, but Crespo is not responsible for it. It is done by marauding gangs of unattached men, who cannot be controlled by the commander of the rev olutionists.
 Crespo's camp until lately was be- tween Cagua and Cura. He has left that point and made 8 detour with 8 body of 8, 600 infantry and 1 200 horse, we'll equipped and drilled. The men are picked men of previous wars

Fears of Hydr rOphObia in the Case of Q
 Little Bridgeport Boy.
 Richard CoIley, the seven year old son of MT and Mrs William B. Colley of Bridgeport, was bitten by a dog sup posed to be mad, at his home, corner of Myrtle and Linden avenue, last Wednes- nay afternoon, and now his parents are seriously considering the advisability of taking the boy to Dr Gibier's Pasteur institute in New York city, for treat ment.
 James Hennessy, a shoemaker on Gen. ter street, Bethel, died Sunday night at little after five o'clock from the effects of an overdose of laudanum, that he drank some time that morning. It is the general belief that Hennessy did not intend to kill himself as he had not shown any signs of despondencY, but took the drug as sort of "racer," and took an overdose, but his real reason for taking the drug will probably never be known.

senator sherman to Retire Soon.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-The story is again in circulation that Senator John Sherman, of Ohio, will before many months announce his retirement from public life. He has work to do, it is said, which he thinks will require all his time for some years to come, chief of which is the editing for publication of man, wrote to him during the war. When grouped together they will fur nish much unwritten history of the great Rebellion, and they will cast equally in teresting sidelights on the politico-mili- tary events of that period.

Delegation of Eight Hour Men RepulsOd
 -GladstOns BlacklistOd.
 LONDON, May 8.-ThS deputation ap- pointed by the Hyde Park meeting me- andered about town all day and called on leading statesmen to learn their opin- ion on the eight hour proposition.
 Lord Salisbury and Mir. Balfour de- clined to receive the deputation; so did MT. Gladstone, but he sent in word in writing that he believed the eight hour movement had not been sufficiently con sidered by those most affected by it.
 The deputation, subsequently, discus sing the reply of MT. Gladstone, showed considerable i'll feeling at 1t. A motion was made and seconded that 1t be placed in the waste basket. A member, how. ever, pointed out that it was evident that MT. Gladstone's mind was still open, and after further angry debate the subject was dropped.
 Labor leaders publish a black list of members of the House of Commons op- posed to the legislation in favor of the eight-hour day. All labor organizations are instructed to oppose at the next gen eral election every man whose name Is on the list. Among the gentlemen tn us blacklisted are John Morley, Sir John Playfair, Mir. Gladstone and Sir John Lubbock. The most notable of the names conspicuous by their absence are Sir William Harcourt, Lord Randolph Churchill and Joseph Chamberlain.
 The National Miners Federation is the greatest power behind the movement formally inaugurated by the publication of the blacklist, and as the organization controls at least 300, ,O00 or 400, 900 votes its declaration will have a noteworthy effect upon the results of the next gen. araI aIactio0

The Greet Woman, Whose Mind Has Been
 CIOuded. Nearing the End.
 NEW YORK, May 3.-Anna Dickinson, reformer, politician, lecturer and pio- neer in the woman's rights movement, is reported to be dping at the Fifth Ave- nus Hotel. She is attended by Dr. Gold thwait, the hotel physician, who has slight hopes of his patients recovery.
 She has long been prominent in this country in the advance ranks of public women. A little more than 8 year ago she was committed to a public asylum, poor, broken and demented, it was said. She managed to secure her release, and although her mental disorders have manifested themselves since, she has re- mained free.
 . Her last appearance in this city some time since was pathetic in its evidence of decline, and the end does not come in the nature of great surprise to those who know her.

The Platform.

The HERALD prints on its outside
the Peoples Party National aud State
platforms, as it understands that a
republican speaker claimed that it
was ashamed of these declarations.
The reader will find that the Peoples
Party asks for good money issued by
the national government, and do not
ask that that portion of the people
employed by the government be dis
franchised as is claimed by the re-
publicans. The HERALD is not very
much in love with the statement that
the Nation is brought to the verge
of a moral and political ruin" How
ever the republicans themselves ask
for ''the strictest legislation for pre-
serving the purity of the ballot and
prohibiting the corrupt use of money
and corrupt practices at the cleo
tions," and flavor such Legislation by
the federal congress as will guaran
tee to all men full, free and fair ex
preston of their election franchise.
IF these two parties agree that cor
rupt influences now surround the bal
lot box, it must be so.
