Senator Dulaney , took the floor and claimed that Warden Parchman has cleared himself of the charges brought, and in his statement he was flatly contradicted by benator Moore, chair man of the investigation committee, ao declared that the committee would amply substantiate all charges brought. senator Adams, author of the resolu tion, insisted that the rottenness be probed to the bottom, regardless of wno may be affected. The debate at several junctures was quite threatening, there was great con fusion in the lobby and the presiding officer was compelled several times to call the senate to order. It was finally decided to make the matter the special order of Wednesday af ternoon. Convicted at Mobile cf the Murder of His Brother-in-Law. Mobile.
