MACHINIST. BURGLAR. MURDERER
Ira F.. Henry. a machinist in the
Santa Fe railroad shops at Albuquer-
que. after being arrested on the charge
of burglary. not only confesses his
guilt as burglar. but coolly tells of
committing one of the most diabolical
murders possible. Several small rob
berries had been committee in Albu-
querque and suspicion fell upon Hen
~. His wife had given birth to a
baby and IL had died very mysterious
Iy a day afterward. He was suspected
of having killed his child and the doc
tor who had waited upon the young
mother. knowing that the child was
perfect and healthy, was not satisfied
with the explanation that it had Just
easped and died" and learning that
Henry had bought some chloroform
not long before the child's death. he
told Henry that the child's body had
been exhumed and traces of chloro-
form had been found and blankly told
him that he had killed his child and
that everybody knew il. so Henry con-
fessed. He laid the blame on his wife
saying that there was a disgrace con-
nected with its birth and they had
come from Topeka, where they mar
ried on purpose to get away from the
people who knew the circumstances.
Then his wife suggested the plan of
killing it and had him buy the chloro-
form before the child was born. 1t
