The Texas Plan--Farmers'
Union Dealing Directly
with Foreign Financiers.

The News and Courier The
Farmers Union Cotton Compa-
ny, of Texas, has perfected an
arrangement with English and
German cotton firms to move
the Texas cotton crop. The agree.
ment is that financiers in Liver
pool and Bremen shall advance
$50 the bale and hold the cotton
indefinitely subject to sale upon
the order of the grower, or until
staple is quoted at something
like its fair value.
There are now from 100000
to 250,000 bales of cotton stored
in warehouses in Texas. 1t has
been carried so far by the banks
of that State, but the Roosevelt,
panic has compelled the making
of some other arrangement, and
thes Farmers Union has succeed
ed, as we are informed, in inter.
esting English and German cap.
italists in the business. Grow
ers will deal directly hereafter
with the foreign consumers in
stead of allowing middlemen to
handle the staple.
If the Texas plan shall turn
out well, the long staple cotton
will be shipped to Liverpool and
the short staple to Bremen, and
upon the cotton the German and
English financiers will advance
money to the amount of $50 the
bale, which will enable the far
mers to close their accounts with
the banks in Texas and will init.
late an entirely new method OF
handling the crop.
The Texas experiment will Ee
watched with a great deal of in
terest. Cotton is worth more
than it is quoted at today. 1t
ought to command Is cents the
pound this year. 1t represents
actual value, not a speculative
security. Some of the Wall
Street people, notably the Wall
Street Journal, have been urg-
ing the planters to sell their cot
ton at the prevailing market
price for the relief of the specu
lative interests, but the,Texans.
if the report be true, have been
able to make an arrangement
which will in sense free them
from their slavery to the gam
blers in New York. This pros
pect is encouraging.
