LAREDO, Tex., Dec. 11.-It was officially announced at Cuerrero, Mexico, opposite Zapata, Tex., by immigration officials today that Bernardino Sanchez, captured recently by federal troops pursuing a band of alleged "reformistas," was executed last Sunday after a summary court martial. The announcement said the reformists, under command of Ireneo Villareal and Pabla Gonzales, Jr., were defeated in a recent attack on Cuerrero.
