THE LATEST.

LAWRENCE, Kan, June 24.-There are
sensational Developments in the Hillman
case and there is every reason to believe
that the man Tor whom the insurance
companies have been bunting for years
has really been found. The first story of
his capture in New Mexico was discredit-
ed several days ago by the detectives
themselves, and it was given out that the
man whom they supposed was HilIman
had again escaped them. Yesterday Judge
Green resolved a dispatch from Detective
Franklin at Socorro, n. NJ, that
the reported escape of Hillman was hoax
and has been wired East for the purpose
of inducing the insurance companies to
again put up the reward of $40, 200, which
had been ''taken down" about a year ago.

It is said that when Franklin reached

but Franklin managed to keep his man in
hiding until the insurance companies had
agreed to again put up the reward. which
was done yesterday.
