Wanted 10 Sell in Texas.

Houston, Tex, March 1S.-When the
announcement of the Sully & Co. sus-
pension was made from the Houston
Cotton Exchange to-day the brokers
were overwhelmed with orders and
could not execute them. The wires of
the commercial companies were del
uged with orders from interior towns
of Texas, as the news spread over the
state very rapidly. Everybody wanted
to sell, consequently very little actual
business was done by the brokers. So
far as can be learned, the losses are
comparatively small individually, and
no local firms were seriously affected.

Excitement in Chicago.

Chicago, March 1S.-The news that
Daniel ]. Sully, the cotton king" had
suspended payment in New York caus-
ed considerable excitement on the Chi
cago Board of Trade, but as the fail
ure did not become generally known
until a few minutes before the session
closed, any panic that might have
followed the announcement was avert
ed. AS it was, there was decided
drop in prices, particularly in prov;-
sions, in which Sully is said to have
direct interests.
Only one large firm in the Chicago
market is believed to be affected by
the Eastern failure, and 1t is not
thought to have been deeply involved.

CORPORATION POWER
JUSTICE BREWER DISCUSSES
INFLUENCE ON JUDGES
THINKS THERE is NO DANGER OF
CORPORATE WEALTH CON-
TRolLiNG-DiSSAT.
iSFAcTION.

New York, Aug. 1i.-Justice David
J. Brewer OF the United States Supreme
Court. in an article contributed to the
Independent, discusses the possible in
fiuence of organized wealth upon the
judiciary. He writes:
1T Is urged that corporations by
their wealth and power are potent In
conventions and with executives, and
thus have large, II not controlling, in
auence in the nomination or appoint.
ment Of judges; that naturally they
will seek to put in judicial position
those friendly, and that thus gradually
they will secure dominance over judi.
cial decisions. making them in har.
mony with their interests. II Is well
TO look q matter like this squarely in
the face and consider both the posi-.
bilities and dangers.
ut will be perceived that the ques.
ton does not imply the gross form Of
pecuniary corruption. but only the in
sidious influence of accumulated wealth
and power. II is useless TO try 10 laugh
the suggestion down as though 1t were
outside the range of possibilities. But
Is there good foundation for the sus-
picion?'
Justice Brewer believes that there
are two things tending to minimize
the possible effect of all outside infiu.
ence on the judiciary" One is the in
disposition Of the American people 10
transfer one from judicial to political
life. The second is the permanence Of
judicial lie. Noting these considera.
tions, Justice Brewer continues;
They tend 10 place judges beyond
the range of outside influence. Let me
also notice other matters which may
relieve the fears of many. Corpora.
tons generally complain that the ad.
ministration Of the law In the courts
Is unfayorable TO them. There is. in
fact. whether well or ill-founded, a pop.
ular prejudice against corporations,
and that prejudice finds expression in
the verdicts OF juries, which, in doubt.
full matters, usually favor the individ.
ual and punish the corporation. But,
SO far as the individual and the cor.
poration have conflicting interests. the
administration Of the law cannot favor
each. II one is favored the other is in.
jured. When each complains, may it
{ not well be because there is in fact no
iavoritism?
"The restraint of public sentiment
is a potent factor. Helpful to this is
greater publicity which now attends
all official action The press with its
myriad eyes is watching every minute
action, and anything which judge
may do In disregard Of official duty, or
even in such way as to create a sus,
picion of his integrity, is seen and
published throughout the land, lie
