Deputy Sheriff Adeleito Romero shot and killed - Sevedro at Concho few days since. District Attorney Bunch went over to the scene of the killing on Monday, to investigate the matter, and reports that the commencement of the affair was over a transaction between Sevedro and Persian peddler. Sevedro bought goods from the peddler to the amount of $5. The peddler not being familiar with our money, permitted Se- yedro to make the change, and he hav- ing given the peddler $10, took $15 in change. Romero remonstrated with Seyedro in regard to his conduct in the transaction, and was told by the latter that it was none of his business. After ward they got into a game of cards in the saloon of Benigno Lopez, in which there was a dispute arose between Re- nero and Sevedro about the payment of & dollar, which Sevedro owed for drinks, Romero being in charge of the saloon during the absence of Lopez. Sevedro again made the remark that it was none of Romero's business. The latter told him that it was-that he was looking out for Lopez during his absence. There was quite an exchange of words of an angry nature, when Romero told Seve- dro that he would go and get his gun. which he did, and on returning shot the deceased. As the coroner-s jury failed to exonerate Romero, and he whl un- uoubtedly be held to answer, we refrain from going into any further detail of the testimony.
