SUPPOSED MURDER NEAR PAL.
ISA DE.
The Body Ieft on the Railroad and
FeRrfullY MamYled.


We last night received a dispatch
from Palisade giving the particulars of
the finding of the body Of a man on the
Central Pacific Railroad track, fourteen
miles west of that place. The suppo-
sition is that a cold-blooded murder
has been committed, though singular
ly enough our advices omit names and
even a description of the murdered
man. Following is what the telegraph
furnishes:
Yesterday morning the engineer on
the easiern-bound emigrant train dis
covered the body OF a man on the track
a short distance ahead about IA miles
we+t of here. They were unable to
stop ths train until the body had been
carried about $50 feet. 1t was then re-
moved from the track in a fearfulIy
mangled condition. There were sew
eral cuts on the person, W. near the
throat, which m:ist have been inflicted
with a knife. The opinion here is that
he a brutality murdered by a man
who had been with him for several
DAYS and, after committing the crime.
placed the body OH the track to avoid
SUSPICION. "
