SULLY HOPES TO
CONE Up AGAIN
Cotton SPECTATOR Heads Off
Attachment by Making
Assignment.

NEW YORK, March 19-The ex-
citement in Wall street, caused by the
announcement yesterday of the sus-
pension Of Daniel J. Sully & Co., was
noticeable again today, but 1t grad
uaIly subsidized during the market
hours, and at the close of the cotton
and stock markets 1t was generally
agreed the worst of the effect of the
failure was over. The stock market
was strong all day. The cotton market
was nervous and slumped sharply on
bad news in the early morning, but be-
fore the close, it, too. became buoyant
and moved UP to point far above the
lowest of yesterday.
1t was feared that other failures
would follow the SulIy crash; but only
one, that of J. H. Garrison, minor
concern, was reported. After a. con-
ference between Mr.. Sully and his
lawyers the firm made a formal as
signment to Joseph II. Hoadley, who
at once took charge. This action was
taken because it was learned that an
attachment was about to issue, and 1T
was thought best to apply for an as
signee for the protection of all cred
itors alike. Later in the day a pro-
test against the selection of Mr.. Hoad-
ley was made at a meeting of cred
itors. Mr.. Hoadley explained that he
had accepted the position of assignee
OnIy OIuGT TO dVO1Q the
placing of attachments and that on
Monday the creditors would select a
permanent assignee, Mr. Sully having
declared that he would agree to any
man of their selection.
Prefers Straightforward Course.
The following letter was sent by D.
J. Sully & Co. to Robert P. McDougall,
president Of the New York Cotton Ex-
change:
while I am not prepared to make
a statement Of my affairs, 1 feel that
as member of this exchange, I owe
to you and it's members at least to
say that the same straightforward
method with which my business has
always been performed between us in
the past will characterize my method
of dealing with my creditors in this
emergency. l am making careful ex-
animation Of my affairs, and at the
earliest possible moment I will report
the result. Meanwhile crave the pa
tient forbearance Of you all, feeling as
sured that this embarrassment will be
only a temporary one, and that I will
be able satisfactorily to adjust my
affairs very speedily
About $1,000.000 Of margin money
due to cotton brokers was released by
Mr. Sully signing contracts.

FORAKERISM BREAKS
OUT IN NEW SPOT
Cleveland Is the Latest battle-ground
for Republican BrawIers.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 19.-Wild
scenes of disorder marked the opening
of the Twentieth district Republican
convention here today as result of a
fight between the Dick and Filipino
(Foraker) factions. The trouble started
when the Dick men nominated Charles
Leach as chairman, the Filipinos hav-
ing already selected J. c.. Ward, of
Lake county, as the presiding officer.
When Leach attempted to take the
chair he was assaulted by the Filipinos
and a hand-to-hand fight followed,
which quickly became general. The po-
lice finally arrived in force and re-
stored partial order. Each faction,
however, nominated its own commit
tees and ticket. The F'ilipinos renom-
mated Jacob A. Beidler for congress
and A. 7. Splitter and F. H. Eggers as
delegates to the national convention.
The Dick delegates nominated Befdler
for congress and chose J. B. Scribe and
A. T. Splitter as delegates. They are

ors Chosen Through Civil
Service Commission.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 49,
In concluding his hearing before the
house comraittee on interstate and for
eign commerce today, Admiral Walker,
president of the Panama canal COM
mission, stated that actual work on the
canal would be begun after the COM
mission had made stay Of a few
weeks on the isthmus, for which it
was to sail March 20. The arrange
ments for this work will be completed
in Washington, where the commission
is to have one of it's headquarters. Ad-
miral Walker said that a large num-
Der Of inspectors would be employed
by the commission. These inspectors
would be engineers, and he did not
want the law to provide that they
should be selected through the civil
service commission.
Admiral" said Chairman Hepburn,
"what yod have said in dispara cement
of the civil service commission has
been very painful to some Of the men,
bers of the committee. Don't you think
it would be possible for you to select
what charwomen, scavengers and wa
ter carriers you will need through the
civil service?"
81 am very sorry to be misunder-
SlOOu, IepISQ the admiral, UeCduSc L
am a thorough believer in the civil
service when it does not apply to US.
But I am very sure that it would not
be satisfactory to the isthmus Of Pan
anna"
The engineering features of the work
were explained, as well as the intense
interest which prospective contractors
already are taking in the matter. The
admiral advised that no requirement
of law should make it necessary to do
the work by contract, as he believed
contractors might combine, to the dis
advantage of the government. It was
the intention of the commission, he
Sid to continue actual work on the
canal, as now being carried on by the
French company, in order to demon
strate the exact cost of such work
The engineering feat of the whole
enterprise was explained to be the con-
struction of the Bohio dam. 1t will be
necessary to go 100 feet below the sea
level to get the proper foundation for
this dam. Admiral Walker declared
positively that, in his opinion, it never
would be necessary to go to the ex-
pense of constructing a sea-level ca
nal. A lock canal would do all the
work required and cost much less.

REDUCED SCALE FOR
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
President shaffer Gives strinsency and
and Competition as the Cause.


PITTSBURG, Pa, March 10 Re-
duction of 20 per cent below the wage
scale of 1904 is. the. proposal that will
be submitted to the tin and sheet lodg-
es of the Amalgamated Association of
Iron, Steel and Tin Workers. The pro-
posal is the outgrowth of a joint meet
ing of the general executive board of
the association and the officers Of the
American Sheet and Tin Plate COM
pany in this city,.
The new scale will have the recon-
mendation Of the Amalgamated Off
Gals.
Theodore T. Shaffer, president of the
Amalgamated association, said tonight
that the reduction is caused by the
commercial stringency and the keen
competition in the tin and sheet trade
and the fact that there are many idle
mills Of this kind, with thousands of
Amalgamated men out of employment.

Pope When He Visits Rome.

PARIS, March 19-The pope's caus-

quarters here. The plans for President

Naples and a brilliant lesser function,
