BILBO BRIBE BEING PROBED.
Dulaney Released on Bond, Demands a
Prompt Trial by Jury.

Behind closed doors Tuesday night the
state senate commenced its investigation
of the statement made by State Senator
Theo. G. Blbo, that he accepted a bribe
of $645 from the hands of L. G.. Dulaney
to change his vote from Nardaman to
Percy in the recent memorable senatorial
contest. All doors and corridors leading
to the senate chamber were securely
barred, Il sergeant-at-arms stationed at
each, and no statements relative to the
proceedings will be made public save
those issued after the body has finished
with its probing.
The forenoon executive session of the
senate lasted three hours and was de-
voted almost wholly to a discussion of
the general trend and character of the
investigation, being finally brought to a
close by the adoption of the Dean reso
luton, authorizing Senator Bilbo and Mr.,
Dulancy to have witnesses summoned to
give testimony on the subject, all ques-
tions propounded to witnesses to be sub
mitted in writing, and full stenograph-
ic report made of the proceedings.
Immediately following the adoption of
this resolution the Percy and Vardaman
factions furnished the sergeant-at-arms
of the senate with lists of witnesses
whom they desire to have summoned.
The Percy faction will attack Senator
Bilbos reliability.
On the other hand, Senator Bilbo has a
dozen or more citizens from his home
town of Poplar vile, to testify to his rep
utation and general moral character. Bill
bo does not claim that he had any eye
witnesses to the alleged bribery, or that
any person saw the actual transfer Of
money from Dulancy to himself,
In order to sustain the Impeachment
proceedings and cXpel Blbo from mem.
bership it will be necessary, under sec.
tion So of the constitution to secure a
two-thirds ma jority of all members pres.

manufacturers in the South. lie declines
to make any statement except to declare
that Bilbo's statement is political
frame-up,' and expresses confidence that
it will be SO proven, both in the circuit
court trial and the legislative investiga
tion.
Mr.. Delaney further stated that he ex-
poets to go on the floor of the senate
and demand full hearing before that
body, whom he recognizes as a jury OF
his peers, from whom there is nothing
to conceal but that he would rather
welcome the opportunity to have his con.
duct i'll this as well as other matters
fully investigated.

Gordon's Speech Pleased Him.

Gov. Noel gave out for publica ton the
following interesting letter to his old
friend, Col. james Gordon:
bridgeport, Conn, Feb. 20, 1910
Sol James Gordon, United States Sen.
ator, Washington, D. c.:
My Dear Sir:
Had the speech which you delivered
in the senate chamber been delivered
fifty years ago, it would have prevented
the Civil War, and | may say that is
the unanimous sentiment north of the
Mason and Dixon line today. The hearts
OF our loyal people lave never been so
generally touched, and why did you
wait all these long years before you
expressed such beautiful sentiments?
"Why | am writing you this letter is
because | want every word of that
speech printed in pamphlet form, edited
and corrected by your own hand, so that
we can circulate it East, West, North
and South, that our children may speak
it III the public schools; that our ora
tors may repeat it at our Memorial
Day exercises with Lincoln's speech at
Gettysburg. And what response would
come from an American audience who
would hear these two addresses delivered
from the same platform.
You have rolled sixty years of serv-
ice into sixty days, and have crowned
record not equal to any senator from
the South in hundred years.
with best wishes for a long and
happy life, | beg to remain fraternally
yours, GEO. p. FARLEY"

for Bcsuvoir Soldiers Home to pass as
it came from the senate on petition of
