Settlers on forfeited railway lands, in
this division of Oregon, and more par

Inland Empire for eighteen years, have
been held down by red tape, an article
which has never been authoritatively

How the Victim Was Obtained.
RUNNING DOWN THE CRIME.
Real Name of the Murdered Man Discov-
coXered-TrailinC Mrs. nillmnn.

Real Name of the Murdered Man Discov-
covered-Trailing Mrs. Hillmon.
After Brown had made this confession it
was discovered that he had lied. The dead
man was not Joe Berkeley, but Frederick
Adolph Walters, young German cigar
maker of Fort Madison, Ia, who had gone
to Lawrence in 1878 and disappeared about
the same time that Hillmon did. This
brought the matter down to a plain case of
murder in which John II. Brown and Hill
mon were the principals, with Levi Bald
win and Mrs. Hillmon as accessories be-
fore the fact.
That was the condition of the case when
the argument for a new trial was made by
the insurance companies. In the mean
time Mrs. Hillmon had travelled much and
the companies concluded that by following
her they could find her husband. This clue
failed, as she married again. However, the
detectives employed by the insurance peo-
pie kept steadily at work on the case and
finally succeeded in running down the
principal in the swindle.
1t is understood that he consented readily
enough to make a clean breast of the affair
in order to clear himself of the charge that
he had killed Walters. This crime, accord
ing to the detectives, he lays at Browns
door. The latter has been kept under sur
veillance, and it is probable that all the
conspirators will be brought up on crmi-
nal charges if the insurance companies
make good their claims regarding the
identity of the man who has been identified
as HillmOn.
