Manned and mangled into an unrec.
ognizable mass OF human flesh and
bones, the body OF $. y Sanders, a
young stocKman OF Logan, y. NJ. was
found last Monday morning beside
the Santa Fe right OF way abou, two
miles west OF Manzanola. II was sup.
posed at first that he had fallen
from stock train and had been acci.
dentally killed. but II now appears
that he was shot TO death. The re.
mains We're brought to the King un.
dertaking parlors in this city. and
were buried Thursday afternoon i'm.
mediately after an inquest had been
held behind closed doors.
The identity OF the dead man was
through a check book found near the
body. which contained check for
$50 made out To himself upon a Lo-
gan. n. NJ. bank. J. c. Sanders, q
brother Of the dead man. arrived In
