that such an amount could be easily

CIute'S Murder,

San Francisco, March 1.-THE Exam
iner says that a remarkable incident has
developed in the case Of Albert Hof, the
aged Russian who is now on trial for the
murder of Mrs. Mary CIute. Two attor-
neys Of this city, Benjamin w Mcintosh
and Edgar B. Raymond, are trying to sell
an alleged confession of the man who is
on trial for his life.
The lawyers insist that they are act
ing as agents for Hoff. They declare that
the prisoner will take nothing less than
$1,000 for his self-confession. The confess
sion, it is represented, was made TO Nc
-ntosh, who is now defending Hoff in
court. 1t is characterized as an unquaIi-
led, Photographic confession of not more
shan three hundred words, of the murder
Of Mrs. Clute.
Albert denies with all the vehemence
ne can command that he has ever made a
confession or ever intends TO do so.
