THUGS ROB
AND MURDER
Wild orgies at a Roadhouse Believed
to Have Resulted in
Murders.

Rutland, VT. May ATTACHES at
The sheriif's office have uneartlled
evidence which they believe will
prove that three men, who were sup.
posed to have been killed by trains OF
the Rutland railroad, were robbed and
murdered in a roadhouse on the ou,-
skirts of this city ana their bodies
placed on the railroad tracks by the
murderers. In some respects the
case resembles that of the notorious
Bender family years ago in Kansas.
Stories Of wild orgies which have
taken place in the roadhouse. and
which was followed by the disappear.
ance of men, who. until recently, it
was thought had left the country, are
now being investigated but the police
say they will only be able to charge
one murder, that of JOS Murray,
against the suspects.
