In the Oouncll Ohamoer above the Recorders
Court Room, yesterday, about noon, Acting he
corder Hale took his seat, with Alderman Hooper
on his right and Alderman Hawthorne on his left.
Col. L. q. Hunt was present the part of Capt.
Forno. Acting Recorder Hale explained the
origin and the object Of the investigation to which
they about to proceed. He was there owing
to instructions from the Mayor, who had desired
this investigation in consequence of a request from
Capt. Forno that such should take place.
There were certain facts elected by the evidence
which none will dispute and which, on that ac-
pleasure-party started from New Orleans to
Biloxi on Sunday morning last While on their
way they got into a game of poker; and there
wea a man with a white hat +" on board, named
IN the evidence as George Dymond who "roped
himself" into the game. They arrived at Biloxi,
Miss, and went ashore, where, for the first time,
they met Capt. Forno and another person, whose
particular business at Biloxi not developed by
the evidence, although il was shown that il had no
connection with the objects OF the pleasure-party.
