delivered the opinion of the court.
The defendant-respondent, José Antonio Vivoni, moved for a reconsideration of the judgment rendered by this court *354in the above case on May 22, 1914, and in support of the motion filed, through Ms attorney, a long and well-written brief which we have read and considered carefully.
In its opinion, which was delivered by Mr. Justice Wolf and which served a.s a basis for its judgment of May 22, this court took notice ■ of the statutes cited by the defendant-respondents, namely, sections. 1740 and 1753 of the Revised Civil Code. But while considering them, it held that they were not applicable to the present case. Section 1740 did not apply because the surety made no payment to or compromise with the creditor, and there is, therefore, no reason why he should be subrogated to the rights which the creditor had against the debtor. Section 1753 is equally inapplicable because, although it appears that the creditor first sued the debtor and attached certain merchandise, the said merchandise was twice offered for sale at public auction and no bidder offered a single cent therefor, and it was then that the creditor decided, in use -of the right granted him by section 1111 of the Revised Civil Code, to bring suit against the surety, and because the surety did not prove by evidence which could be deemed sufficient that he had been really prejudiced by the act of the creditor.
The circumstances of the case have not changed in any way and therefore the motion praying for the reconsideration of the judgment should be overruled.
Reconsideration denied.
Chief Justice Hernández and Justices Wolf and Aldrey concurred. Mr. Justice Hutchison took no part in the decision of this case.
