COURT DECIDES
AGAINST HENRY
5oVERNoR HAS RIGHT TO sUss
PEND STATE OFFICIAL.
OFFICIAL.
WILL GO TO HIGH COURT
Right to Appoint Successor to Insur.
ance Commissioner Henry Also
Upheld by Judge Potter In
Court at Jackson.

Jackson, Miss.-Judge Wiley H.
Potter has held that Gov. Russell had
the right to suspend Insurance Com
missioner T. M. Henry and to make
temporary appointment to fill the
office. A statutory appeal with SUI
persedeas was allowed to the supreme
court, where the case will be made q
preference one.
This means that Commissioner Hen
ry will continue to hold the office
and Excel Coody, the governors
temporary appointee, will have to
wait until the supreme court passes
upon the matter.
When the court met the ATTORNEYS
for the insurance commissioner filed
motion asking leave to plead furth-
er and submitting two pleas setting
up the defense which would be Of
fered on an issue of fact. After ar
gument OF the motion Judge Potter
overruled 1t, holding that the de-
murrer had covered both the law and
the facts, admitting the latter and
submitting the former.
This case grows directly out Of the
proceedings Of the revenue agent
against Commissioner Henry, charg-
ing him with failure to settle certain
taxes due the state.
Commissioner Henry paid over
some $4,000 to the revenue agent
on his claims and a suit is pending
in the circuit court for a further
amount claimed to be due the state by
the revenue agent.
When the matter was brought to
the attention of the governor he took
action under the provisions Of the
statute authorizing him to suspend
any tax collector found to be In do
fault. Acting under this statute the
governor issued the order suspend
ing the insurance commissioner from
office and appointed Excel Coody to
take his place
The whole matter will now 20 to
the supreme court and as prefer
ence case should come up at an early
day.
