Sully, who died yesterday in Beverely Hills, Calif, was a dominating and colorful figure in the cotton markets of the world a quarter century ago. A specialist and a plunger, he won and lost millions in a day's trading. In 1903 he entered business in as- sociation with Samuel ¥. B. Morse and Willlam Fagan and the firm's opera- tions became widely known for their spectacular nature. He gained inter- national fame when he predicted a short crop of less than 10,000,000 bales against the judgment of the Cotion Exchange and was supported later by the Government report Mr. Sully made $3,000,000 by the purchase and sale of 200,000 bales in The Spring of 1903 and lost it the fol= lowing year in a falling market. The same year he went into bankruptcy for approximately $3,000.000 and the re- verberations were heard throughout the | Nation’s markets. He was characterized by his as- sociates as a daring and spectacular plunger, without regard for accepted | rules and with little knowledge of the | FARM BOARD HIT BY ORDER BUYERS Accused of Making $100,000 | Loan to Drive Out Live Stock Middlemen.

Ketner, general manager of the group, had told him it was the inten- tion of the co-operative to drive every old-time middleman out of business in | St. Louts in three years. George A. Casey, president of the meat packers' group, tried to draw from Walker an admission that a $20,000 loss taken by the co-operative on a re- cent shipment of hogs had been sus- tained solely to undersell private order buyers and had been made good out of money supplied by the Farm Board. | " Ketner, who was present, denied his co-operative group sought to eliminate | terminal buying or old line order | buyers. economics involved. He was known as ' a consummate poker player and an in- timate crony of John W.
