The -120 is an HFS error. Run Disk first aid, Norton, TechTool Pro, or whatever you prefer to repair the disk directory. Then try to trash the items again.
If that fails, create a new folder, put these items in it. Now create 2 new documents in Simpletext. Save these items with the same names as each of the items. Drag these items into the folder. You should get a message "do you want to replace..." Answer yes. After replacing them drag the folder to the trash and empty it.
