Bodies Burned in New

Denver. Colo. Feb. IA special to
the Republican from Las Vegas, N. M.
says:
Sheriff Romero has returned from
Trementina in possession of facts that
maks 1t appear certain that the burning
of the homo of Benito Sanches in that
village, with two women and a child,
was really an attempt to conceal a most
outrageous crime.
+. There is the strongest evidence that
the two women, Mrs. Sanches and a
young school teacher, were criminally
assaulted, murdered and the house
burned to conceal the crimes. Two men
who were rooming at the house were
drunk during the afternoon. The big
adobe house was OIL fire for more than
one hour before the floor of the second
story. where the women and child slept,
fell. The charred remains of the wom-
en- were found in the ruins still lying
on the bed and strong evidences of the
crime were still apparent. The two
men were found some distance from the
house. They admitted having seen the
fire. but could not account for having
left the ONE and children upstairs
in the house. One of the men fled and
the other is aid to be in hiding.
