IS, of Farmlngdale, will not be returned here for identification by victims of robberies allegedly committed by Himself and Olon Williams here within the past week, Chief of Police L. A. Maxwell said today. Williams was Identified by both Martin Drenovac, Hardfont grocer, and Ray Harrellson, local restaur- Jteur, as one of the pair Who had held them up recently, after state police had rounded him up at the home of Chris Barttsoff on Madl-' son evenue Friday night. Hibbs escaped through the Stan- aard Oil Co.

property, but was caught by state patrolmen near Hamel shortly after noon Saturday when they saw him jump off a truck they were following, and run Into some nearby When apprehended, Hibbs was coatless and had no weapon. He ftrst denied participation In the holdups of which he wai accused here, but when he returned to Springfield, admitted he had taken part in the holdup of a filling station there, which started the state police chase after him. He also admitted he had taken part in the theft of two automobiles recently, according to press dispatches from tbe state capital, and said he had coramltteed several burglaries to East Bt. Louis and Wood River, but pleaded that hM forgotten where they were. The holdup of the Springfield filling station Friday was the act which drew pursuit of the state police who trailed them to fit Louis and finally to Wood Elver, after losing them at Jacksonville.

Another act, connection with which they are suspected of, Is the shooting of Ernest Purgatory, Springfield policeman, Wednesday night. Hibbs was caught after State Patrolmen Ohm and Probst had chased him over barbed wire fences, and through cornfields, marshes, and creeks near Hamel. Chief Maxwell said that, contrary to reports given out from other sources! Hibbs had not been wought back to Wood River and ihat the Jocal police planned not to ask Ills return. Maxwell believed there was little use -in clinching the local charge against Hibbs at present, since he already is beng held for so many to connection with Springfield crimes.
