OLD PEOPLE MURDERED.
Fearful Crime Committed On Ranch
Near Lamar.

wear Lamar.
Denver.-A Republican special from
Lama, Colorado, Thursday, says:
One of the most iiendish crimes In
the history of this part of the state,
which must have occurred some time
Saturday night or early Sunday morn
ing, was revealed today by the autopsy
held by Coroner Kellogg over the
bodies Of A. II. Maxwell and wife, well
known people who resided on claim
eight miles southeast of here.
Both of the aged pair had evidently
been strangled to death while they
slept and there was little indication OF
a struggle. The post mortem revealed
that the trachea in each of their
throats had been broken and the
bruises on Mrs. Maxwells body and
broken bones in her chest We're evi.
IDENTIFY the result of the weight of the
assassin's knee while he choked her
to death.
Ed Maxwell. nineteen years Of nee,
who was adopted by Mr.. and Mrs.
Maxwell when he was seven years old.
was placed under arrest and Is being
held in jail here pending further In.
ycstigation.
Young Maxwell is reticcnt, but says
he knows nothing of the affair and
that he will he able to prove an alibi
The last seen of the Maxwells alive
was Saturday. Yesterday being Christ
mas day. Mr.. and Mrs. Merritt, neigh
bors, sent their son to the Maxwell
ranch TO take some Christmas pres.
ents. On reaching the barn lot the
youth heard the cattle believing and
the horses Deighing as though they
had not had food or drink for several
days.
On going to the house he saw no
signs of life about the place. and being
frightened hurried home and notified
his father. who returned with his son.
On entering the house and going to
the bed room OF the aged couple, Mer.
ritt was greeted with the horrifylng
spectacle of seeing them both dead in
bed. They were dressed in their night
clothes and at first II looked as though
the couple had met death peacefully
and II was supposed by Mr. Merritt
that death had been due to natural
causes.
Word was sent TO Coroner Kellogg
at this place, and he. with the sheriff
and other authorities. drove to the
Maxwell home, and an investigation at
once suggested that death was due to
foul play.
The bodies were brought TO Lamar
and We're placed in charge Of a local
undertaken aud this afternoon the
autopcv was held, revealing the cause
OF death. The inquest was postponed
until next Saturday afternoon In order
TO give the authorities more umo 10
