HAS HILLMAN BEEN FOUND?
A Long Hunt for Man Said to be
Dead.

KANSAS CITY, No., June 24.-About nine
years ago John W. Hillman, of Lawrence. Kan.
who had secured insurance on his life for
S32, 200, went to Indian territory with several
companions. Soon word come back that he
was dead. he having been accidently shot by
one of his comrades. The body was brought
TO Lawrence. but many people refused to be-
lieve it was Hillman's. This reached the ears
of the insurance company. and when the al
legged widow presented the policies the COM
panies refused to pay them, alleging that the
body was that Of a young man who had been
murdered by Hillman and co-conspirators.
The matter was taken into court and three long
and sensational trials were had the latest one
last winter. when the state supreme court
decided in favor of Mrs. Hillman. or Mrs.
Smith, she had become by marriage to a
Leavenworth travelling man. Eight years ago
]. NJ. Miller, OF Lawrence, Kan. became pos
sessed of the idea that Hillman was still living
and, as he had money, set out to find him.
Several men were arrested at his instigation,
but each proved not the man.
HILLMAN FOUND IN ARIZONA
May % last, just as the New York life insur-
ance company was about to pay its policy, word
came from Miller that he had found Hillman
and had caused his arrest at Tombstone, Ariz.
Miller stated that Hillman had been living in
Sonora. Mex, since he disappeared. Detective
Franklin, of the Santa Fe system, went to
Tombstone and seemed to identify the prisoner
Some time ago the man was brought secretly
to Lawrence, but no one ever saw him to iden-
tify him. Last Tuesday word came that he had
escaped. and every one supposed that the ar
rested man was not Hillman. Last night the
case became more mysterious than ever. as an
attorney Of one Of the insurance companies
sent word to several papers that Hillman had
been recaptured and was to be taken to Topeka
to-day. No one has seen him, however, and
the matter still stands the greatest insurance

discovered that young Harvey Duncan, who
was drowned in the Ohio river near Belprie,
Ohio, on Friday last, and whose death was sup
posed to have been accidental, was deliber-
ately murdered in daylight Duncan, with
three other young men and two women, had
been living in boat house by the riverside.
On Friday disturbance took place in the
house. and few minutes later three men
were seen to come out holding Duncan be-
tween them. They put him in a small boat
and rowed out into the stream. An old Ger
man, who lives near by, heard the lad plead
for his life, but they deliberately threw him
into the river and prevented him from swim
ming out. He struggled for few minutes and
then sank. The West Virginia authorities are
