Physicians Testify as to the Nature
of Hoffman's Wounds.
Are Confident That They Could Not Have
Been SeIf-lnfIicted.
Lionel Chase, a Prominent Young
County, Sits Down on the Door
Step of the Village Church and
Shoots Himself Through the
Head, Dying Instantly.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 9.-Police-
man c. w. Russell, who prepared the
diagrams of the scenes of the murder
of Isaac Hoffman, was the first witness
called by the prosecution in the F1gel
case to-day.
He was followed by DR.. John Gala
CHER, who performed the autopsy upon
the body of the murdered man at the
morgue. He described the three bullet
wounds found on the left side of Hoff-
mans head, and stated that While 1t
was possible that they might have been
self-inflicted. it was extremely improb-
able.
DIR. S. S. Kahn and Coroner Hawkins,
who were present when the autopsy was
performed, corroborated DR.. Gala
CHER, and expressed the opinion that
some of the wounds in Hoffman's head
We're not self-infiicted.
On oss-examination, Coroner HaW-
kns stated that he had not been at the
Receiving Hospital at the time the in
iured man was taken there for treat
nent, and that his testimony was given
on facts witnessed at the morgue.
DR. Morgan's testimony was in sub
stance the same as that given by the
other physicians, and he also stated
that his testimony was given merely
frcm what he had seen at the morgue at
the time of the post-mortem eXamlna-
1ion.
Further evidence will be heard to-
morrow.

WORDEN'S CONFESSION.
Knox Denies That He Had Any
Hand in the Train-Wrecking.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 9.-The con-
fession made by Salter d. Worden re-
lating to his connection with the Yolo
trestle train wreck, and implicating
Harry Knox and other members of the
American Railway Union, has caused
much comment. The general impress
sion seems to be that it will have much
effect in influencing Governor Budd TO
grant executive clemency.
These of the men he says planned and
executed the crime who were seen to-
day emphatically denied the truth of
his story, and asserted their entire in
nocence. Harry Knox gave out sign
ed statement, in which after relating
how he became acquainted with Wor
den he says:
When Worden says in his statement
1t was by my order the team or men
went where he claims they did he tells
q downright lie. He says we deserted
him during his trial: that is not true.
We have evidence that we wanted his
borther to use but he would not, and
it appeared to me as though he did not
care whether his brother was convicted
or not.
In conclusion, l wish to say that
neither Worden nor any one else was
ever used as a tool for the committee,
and II any damage was done it was
done without our knowledge or consent.
He has made several so-called confes-
sions, but he never tried to implicate
the committee before. and it is my opin-
ion that he has been made to do it
now by his brother, hoping to get some
one into trouble / believe WOrden
ought to be in the asylum, instead Of
prison"
