ttcians at Berlin. and possibly the emperor
himself. with the idea that by means Of an
arrangement with France Germany could
emerge from the circle which has almost
isolated her.
There Is also a considerable faction in
France which believes France should cease
to play England's game and that her surest
guarantee of the peace for which she strives
would be frank understanding with Ger
many. But the present controlling political
powers in the French government would
consider anything in the nature of a rap
prochement with Germany nothing short Of
treachery to the alliance and the series Of
friendships France has industriOusly
built up in recent years.
No Pending Differences.
1t is authoritatively explained that with
due regard to her alliance and friendships
France could and would be willing to make
a special arrangement with Germany COW
ering some particular point of difference.
And for that purpose NJ Jules Cambon, the
French ambassador to Berlin, is ready to
receive any communication the German
government may care to make. But, as
pointed out here there are no pending diff
ferences concerning frontiers or other mat
tiers which could form the subject of a
special agreement. The last source of spe-
cial difference disappeared with the adjust
Of Algeciras.
The only possible basis Of an understand
ing therefore, would be financial. France,
as the great world banker, Is always in
funds for Investment. and many French
bankers have long believed that the best
way to insure peace with Germany was to
induce heavy French investments in Ger
man Industrial enterprises. From a purely
business point of view they have also con-
sidered such investments. which pay and
7 per cent against and obtainable in
France. as good thing.
Opposes Such Financing.
But the French government has hereto
fore steadily opposed the financing of Ger
man enterprises, and what money has gone
to Germany has been In spite of the gov
ernments attitude.
It Is along these lines alone that some
sort of understanding seems possible.
But here, too, at the very outset political
considerations enter. Germany is willing
to have French capital embark with Ger
man money in the Bagdad railroad, but
only on condition that England and Rus
lions are impossible of acceptance. It must
also be borne in mind that Clemenceau is
a strong partisan of the British French
combination, and as long as he has the
helm nothing is likely to be done which
would be remotely prejudical to English
interests.
The Indications therefore, are that moth
Ing in the direction Of a rapprochement
with Germany will be accomplished for the
present, but that France will simply seek
to maintain the present good relations
with Germany. which M. Pichou, in his re-
cent speech before the chamber, described
as better than they had been for years.

COTTON IS IMPROVING.
Warm Weather Is Having y Beneff-
cial Effect Upon the Plant.

The weekly exodus or negroes 10
the cotton fields Of Ellis county took
place this morning. the demand for
help being much greater than 1t was
last week. Farmers were in from al
most every community adjacent TO
the city and every negro able to
swing a hoe was given an opportun-
ity to go to the fields.
A wonderful Improvement was
made in the condition of cotton dur
ing the last two or three days of the
past week. The warm weather has
had a beneficial effect upon the
plant and it is beginning to take on
a healthier color. The farmers are
more encouraged now than theE
have been since the crop was plant
ed. They feel hopeful of yet making
an average crop of cotton.
