Senators Bailey and Cocke clash over Suggs claim in Texas probe
At the Bailey investigation in Austin on Tuesday, Cocke demanded a subpoena to force Senator Bailey to produce a letter from Captain Mateau. Bailey denied borrowing $7,000 from Suggs, calling the accusation a lie, and the panel adjourned amid debate over witnesses and records. In Waxahachie a major fire destroyed three buildings, including a mattress factory, warehouse, and a residence, with about 60,000 dollars in losses and several insured items.
