Bisbee daily review., 1905-11-08

Eonroute to Tombstone Monday ev- ening to enter the county jail pending appearance before the grand jury. G. L. Henderson, bank draft forger and man of many aliases, talked to off cers White ard Snodgrass and made a clean breast of his record of crime.
 Henderson did not deliver his story as a formal confession, but let it run freely in a purely personal manner. strung together, the narrative made one which the officers were able to re- peat yesterday as carrying most every shade of human feeling.
 Henderson opened with admission that he was caught, and that he would undoubtedly receive a penitentiary sentence. He then declared that he was glad that it had happened in Ari- zona, believing that he would be more likely to secure leniency here than he would in some ot the states where he has to his credit jobs of more serious character, because of amounts involy- ed, than he carried through in the ter ritory. As to the plea he would enter when arraigned for his forgeries, Hen derson remarked that he would take a good look at the District Judge and then determine whether he would plead guilty and throw himself upon 1he mercy of the court whether he would fight the case out in hope of lawyers earning him a shorter term of imprisonment than the sympathy of the court might otherwise be expected to impose.
 Henderson declared that the point. in the whole matter, which touched him deepest was that today bride to have been, will wait for him at San Francisco without knowing the reason of his failure to appear. He refused to divulge the name of the girl he says he was 70 have married, but declared that she supposed him to be what be himself on the road when | engaged in passing his forged drafts. ] a traveliug representative of the Dunn l agency. The wedding date was set for today when he left San Francisco about a month ago. Henderson declares that he left on this trip with determination that it should be his last, he intending on re- turning to San Francisco to engage in some business pursuit and wipe out
  gitimaue trade occupation and in the happiness of a home of his own.
 T have S7 200 safely put away" said Henderson to the officers, land when I get through with whatever prison sentence I may get from this fall down I think I will be in shape 10 keep out of the way of further trouble. I expected to put just s2,S00 to that buried wad when l left San Francisco on this trip. That would have given me s10,000, and made up my mind to be satisfied with that amount, invest it legitimately and watch it grow. We'll, expect it is case of eight or nine years now"
 Henderson rambled on in reminisc ent mood regarding his history of crime. He told the officers of jobs done all over the country. Some of these stories were confirmed by dis patches and letters the officers have received here since the arrest of Hen derson from officers at various parts of the country. More confirmation of this kind came yesterday, when Marshal Snodgrass received tele- grams from Great Bend and Ellsworth, Kansas. Officers at these places gent descriptions of Henderson and frantic words in connection told that they wanted the man held badly. At the two places mentioned Henderson used the alias of G. L. Harrison, a new one in the list that has so far accumulated here.
