too small for his expensive tastes
when the unknown friend told him
that one could have all the money he
wanted if he was only half way clever
about it. He told him the system was
to forge the name of some one a long
distance away. then do the rush act
with friends newly made while appar-
emily following a legitimate line Of
business. Henderson did so and the
plan worked finely until he dropped
into the Bisbee bank and presented a
draft from a San Francisco bank with
which the. Bisbee institution was a
correspondent and familiar with the
signatures of its officers. The fraud
ulent signature was detected at once
and Henderson, alias Marks, was ar
rested
The method of work is illustrated
by the Larned incident. Henderson
dropped into town as the representa-
tive of a car foundry or car manu-
featuring concern. He made the ac-
quaintance Of the local railroad Off
cials. went down into the railroad
yards. looked over the rolling stock
with the master mechanic, pointed out
some defects in construction of cars.
etc, all this being to gain confidence
and standing. His business was very
urgent and he had to get along on the
next train he said and was getting a
little short Of cash though he had all
kinds of checks. The master mechanic
was not prepared to cash any of them
so he turned Henderson over to the
station agent. The latter said he could
not spare so much as $3.50 at the mo-
ment But Henderson was in a hurry
and up against it. The banks were
closed at that hour but the station
agent volunteered to get the check
cashed by one of them through his
personal acquaintance, through the
side door of the bank, out of regular
hours, and did so. 1t was then that
Henderson faded. The train couldn't
come a bit too soon for him, though
it might have been several days before
the fraud would be discovered.
Henderson, alias Harrison, alias
Marks was sentenced in November
1905, to five years service in the pen

Kansas leagues two years ago would
again consider putting salaried teams
on the diamond so that there would
not be any danger of the local team
being unable to secure games with
teams of the same class within a
reasonable distance radius
Rudolph, manager of the last sea-
sons Salt River Valley team which,
however, has one more game to play,
intends to go to New England in a
few weeks and although he is not
going east for the express purpose
Of securing a line on ball players yet
he will keep in mind the fact that
a team will probably be organized
here in the fall and will be able to
secure a couple of experienced pitch
ers in case they are necessary. Very
few men from other parts would be
needed as the team already organ
lied would form the nucleus Of an
organization which could compete on
even terms with any team which has
ever played bail in the territory.
The Salt River Valley team will
meet the team from Kelvin and Ray
at Mesa on July ;. The game, which
was scheduled for this city on Sun
day the Fourth. has been cancelled
because the management was unable
to secure the Eastlake grounds. This
game viii be the last appearance of
the team until the cool weather
comes again. However, all of the
players will remain in or will return
to this valley and the makeup Of
the organization will be but little
changed. Stevenson, who has as
sumed the management of the Mesa
celebration game will return from
Denver with Cuber and Morris, the
battery Of the local team and will
begin to indulge in light practice for
the game with the miners.
Ayers. Pierce md Jones will be
secured if they are still in the coun-
try and are willing to play. These
men would make a strong addition
to any team which might be secured
in the fall, and although none Of
the three play Sunday ball, yet they
would prove valuable at many times.
With the present enthusiasm over
the game and a little boosting and
spending at the right time, Phoenix
ought to have a strong ball team in
the field next fall.

HENDERSON, ALIAS
HARRISON AND MARK
His Forgery Methods and Where He
Learned the Art of Living by His
Wits.

Quite an interesting story was
pumped out Of Convict Lewis A.
Marks who spent Sunday in Phoenix
in the custody Of Ben S. Winchester,
an officer of Larned, Kansas, who
came here after him armed with eX-
tradition papers. Marks was released
from prison in Yuma on Friday night,
having served a five-year sentence, less
good time. for passing on the Miners
and Merchants Bank Of Bisbee, draft
bearing the forged signature Of the
cashier Of a San Francisco bank.
Winchester wants him to answer a
similar charge in Larned, Kas. When
the officer arrived he found the COVER
nor absent and as his man was to be
released before the governor could get
home Winchester went at once to
Yuma, had him placed under arrest
and brought him to Phoenix.
The governor had not yet returned
but the officer persuaded Marks to go
without papers. the latter doing so in
the belief that by being a good Iniun''
he could with the help Of his parents
who are now waiting for him in Lar
ned with money to make good the
financial part Of his wrong doing, Sc
cure his liberty 1t is possible yet that
he may but he win have to come
through with a little more information
than he has yet before the law will
feel kindly disposed to him, although
he has been a model prisoner in Yuma
and is a young man of quite agreeable
personality. being now only % or %
years old. having entered upon his
criminal career at IS or even before.
Marks is an assumed name but it
was plenty good enough for him to use
for prison purposes and almost saved
his liberty, temporarily at least The
Kansas man came after Gustave l..
Henderson, Alias Gordon L. Harrison.
The prison records at the capitol
showed no such name but the officer
knew the term of the man he wanted
was about to expire so the records of
all such were referred to and in the
description Of Marks they discovered
the man wanted He acknowledged his
guilt of the Larned offense and also
of several similar ones, which he hopes
now may not be pushed against him
after his prison service, if he can
square up the cash he fraudulently Sc
cured. He admits having begun his
forgery operations i'm New York City
and of operating clear across the coun-
try until he reached Bisbee He says
he was taught the art of living by his
wits by an older and quite successful
forger in New York City and the one
bit of information the officers now
most desire is the identity of this in
structor. Henderson refuses to di-
vulge this mans name though he told
where he was living in New York.
when he last saw him. This clue may
be sufficient but forgers do not usually

Some dope" on the Players.

Although the last two games which
have been played by teams repre-
senting the city Of Phoenix have not
been Of the high quality which would
entitle them to recognition among the
four hundred Of fandom, yet the
base ball agitation which is intended
to lead to the founding and placing
in the field of a good team next
fall still continues to go merrily on
Yesterday some Of those who are
interested in the game We're out
measuring the Polk street grounds in
the hope that some suitable athletic
park could be found nearer the center
Of the city than the Eastlake grounds
and TO which the people could easily
walk without being compelled to wait
half an hour for a car. The Polk
street ground is the most favorably
situated location. but the grounds
have been found TO be a little too
small for the establishment of a first
class diamond. The block is only
275 feet in length 1t would be al
most impossible 10 pace a grand
stand in an enclosure of this size
and still leave any room for the
fielders. The fence would have to
be very high in order that too many
Of the batted balls might not be sent
to the outside and a home run made
on a hit that on a larger ground
might have been picked up by the
fielder. After investigating the site
it was decided not to use the ground
if any other could be secured.
In the past few days the promoters
Of the sport in this city have been
around to some Of the business men
looking for an expression of senti-
ment on the matter Of establishing
semi professional salaried team in
this city in the fall. There have
been reports that some Of the other
