P k e s c o t t , June 2d.— The Albu'
querque Review, just received, states
that a brutal murder was committed
on the 17th of May, two miles north
of Rio Puerco.
Two Mexicans,
named Valencia and Garcia, were
hilled bv a party of seven masked
men.
Valencia bad a rope tied
around bis neck, and was dragged on
the ground until life was extinct.—
Garcia was taken from his house and
killed with an axe and his throat cut.
Both men had families, and were
murdered in the vicinity of their
homes. Guards were placed over
their houses to prevent the escape
of any member of the household,
and the
recognition of- any of
the murderers.
Valencia was 60
and Garcia 35 years of age. It is
supposed the cause of the murder
originated in lawsuit tried at the
Tucson courts a year ago. So far no
clue to the perpetrators has been
found.
