Austin, Tex. Feb. 12.-Declaring that "all this
prattle Is a lie' and urging that the committee
interpose and stop these insults" Senator
Bailey brought 10 a climax this afternoon an
exciting session Of the legislative committee ap-
pointed TO investigate charges filed against him
by Representative Cooke. This was IN reply to
a request Of Representative Cooke that addi-
tional witnesses be summoned by which he
hoped TO prove that Senator Bailey had Dor
rowed $1,000 Of J. D. suggs. Of Iron County.
When it was suggested that the committee
leave at once for st. Louis where additional
testimony is to be taken. Senator. Bailey pro-
tested that he should not be compelled to go
over the country as the principal in an inyes-
tigaton Of this nature"
It also developed to-day that the committee
is averse to allowing testimony TO appear in
the record before being censored by a majority
Of the committee. assisted by Senator Bailey.
