A Sunday's St. Louie despaioh says: F. Casper Clispy, a machiniet, 27 years old. loved Mary damson, aged 22, a daughter of John Anson, also a machinist and co- worker of Clispy in the Missouri Panifio Railroad shops. Clispy was a confirmed opium ester and Anson had forbade him visiting his daughter. A few minutes before 6 o'clock yesterday morning Cliepy went to Amion's house while the family were at breakfast. Angry worda sauced between the men, when lalispy drew a revolver and fired at Amon, inflicting a mortal wound. He then shot his sweet.' heart, Mary, and her younger sister Agoes, fatally wounding the former and seriously injuring the latter. All fdl to the floor, • and while they lay there bleeding she neutderer placed the pistol to'his own head, blowing his brains out, and dying in half an hour. 'LATE11.—Mr. Anson was shot in the head, and died about noon. Mary was deo shot in thabead, but the ball glanced around under the scalp and made only a fieeh wound which will soon heal. Agnes re- ceind a bell above the right temple, which penetrated the brain, and still remains there. She will undoubtedly die Michael Anson, aged 15, grappled with the murderer, and wse shot in the wrist and hand, but the wottnd is not severe. Lillie and Maggie Amon, two other children were not hurt. When Clispy entered, the home he had a pistol in each hand, and es is now learned began firing at once, and without other warning than using the word: When Inched: grappled with him Cliepy dropped one pistol and ran up to a balcony on the second floor and there fired three balls into his head. It isaaid0liopy forced • his attentions on Mary, and when -he found -she Id not care for him, and that the family opposed their marriage he threatenea to have blood. • TXRBIHO 3EXPLosiOH Caused by a wernman propping a Can of Nitro-glycerine.
