MAY CLEAR MURDER MYSTERY
Case of Staying Near Altoona in 1908
Reopened by Confession of Man
Held in Chicago.

Eau Claire. The mystery of a muir
der committed near Altoona more than
five years ago may be cleared up by
the confession of Robert Hodgins, held
in Chicago, who admits that he per-
petrated the crime for the purpose of
robbery. In November, 1908, the body
of W. e. Murray, railroad laborer,
was found on the outskirts of Altoona
His skull had been crushed and a
large sum of money he was supposed
to carry was missing. George White,
another laborer, was arrested for the
crime, but finally acquitted for lack
of evidence. The story told by Hold
gins to the Chicago officers closely cor
responds to the facts of Murray's muir
der and the Eau Claire county officials
will probably bring him here and re.
open the case.
