I saw ,, Mr. CLinton's speech at the Black Cacus meeting yesterday ,, I felt that intuitively that he was endorsing Mr. Gore more than usual ,, as he was preparing the public .. did any one else see the spech and any feeling on it ? Sunday September 20, 9:12 pm Eastern Time White House says it worried about Hyde's fairness NEW YORK, Sept 20 (Reuters) - The White House on Sunday night expressed concern Rep. Henry Hyde, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, was conceding control of his committee to more partisan Republicans. White House spokesman Joe Lockhart, arriving here with President Bill Clinton for the annual United Nations General Assembly, said committee member Rep. John Conyers, a Michigan Democrat, had reported that Hyde told him last week he was only the ''subchairman,'' meaning that House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a Georgia Republican, was really in charge. This conversation was said to have occurred during the debate over whether to release Clinton's Aug. 17 videotaped testimony in the Monica Lewinsky matter. In a vote along party lines, the committee decided to release the videotape. It will be made public on Monday morning along with other documents from independent counsel Kenneth Starr's investigation. ''We're very concerned that the chairman of the Judiciary Committee is conceding that he's not really running the committee, that there are more partisan people within the leadership that are giving him his marching orders,'' Lockhart told reporters. ''We think he (Hyde) should assert his leadership and provide a fair and bipartisan process,'' he said. Hyde would oversee any impeachment inquiry into the president's extramarital affair with Lewinsky and any attempts to cover it up.

TOKYO STOCKS - Factors to watch - Sept 21 TOKYO, Sept 21 (Reuters) - The following are some of the main factors that may influence stock trading in Tokyo on Monday: The benchmark Nikkei average may weaken as an agreement by ruling and opposition parties on restructuring the financial system appears in jeopardy. Kansei Nakano, a senior member of the Democratic Party, said on a Sunday talk show that the agreement, which would force shareholders of troubled banks to take a harder hit and temporarily put the Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan under state control, was not a done deal. The Nikkei will likely fluctuate between 13,800 and 14,100. OUTLOOK: ''I don't think people believed we had a sure thing,'' said Paul Migliorato, senior salesman at Jardine Fleming Securities, referring to the agreement. The agreement was reached Friday before Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi left for the United States for meetings with President Bill Clinton. With the agreement in jeopardy, more emphasis will be placed on the tone of that meeting. Traders and investors may continue to focus on Aoyama Trading Co and TDK , both of which have said they have problems with Russian government bond investments they made, Migliorato said. More companies may report similar problems, he said. ''This may be the tip of the iceberg,'' said Migliorato. Traders will also worry about how the country's weak economy, which has contracted for three quarters, will affect earnings of corporate Japan. ''Slow growth will take its toll on profits,'' said Ryoji Musha, strategist at Deutsche Securities. Traders and investors will also wait for the release of Clinton's videotape testimony to a grand jury. If the contents of the tape prove damaging, the president could be distracted from economic policy. MARKET CLOSINGS ON FRIDAY Nikkei 225 average rose 123.98 points, or 0.89 percent, to end at 13,983.12 Nikkei December futures finished up 150 points to close at 13,950.

STOCKS TO WATCH Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan.
