TIE HOFFMAN MURDER.
Woman's S Husband Said to Have
Disappeared From Nor

The murder of Mrs. William Hoffman.
OF No. 7G9 Central avenue, West Hoboken
is still shrouded in mystery. The police
have as yet been unable to find the slight
est clue or to detect the least discrepancy

but was caused by being scorched in the
ironing
The only clue that the police hope to
work to a successful result is the report
that the dead woman's husband disap-
peared over a week ago from Norwich
Conn.,, where he has been living for some
time. A general alarm has been sent out
for him and he will be arrested upon
sight

confidence in the innocence of her intend

Queer as 1T may seem upon the face of
things, some of the West EIobolken police
are inclined towards the suic de theory
as a solution of Mrs. Hoffman's death.
Only a superficial examination OF the body
has been made, and it is yet to be deter
mined whether the blood-stained axe
penetrated the skull.
The inquest will be held next Tuesday
morning. Both prisoners were today for
mally arraigned and committed ON the
charge of murder by Recorder Lederle of
