A DAZZLING SCHEME.
The Twine Trust's Proposition to the Far
-ners-Secret Conclave With Alliance
Leaders-A $10,000,000 Supply Agen
cy, with Branches, Suggested,
To Be Presented to the
Alliance.
N$w YoRK, July 14.-In a secret
conclave of representative Farmers'
Alliance men from all parts of the
country, held recently at an out-of-the
way hotel in the vicinity of this city,
there was concocted a daring financial
and commercial scheme which it is
intended to propose to the farmers of
the country, and which rivals in its
character and magnitude the sub
treasury scheme.
Measures began to be taken in March
to get together a sufficient number of
the leaders in the Alliance movement
to give the project an effective paren
y> tage, and they were attended with sucn
success that over thirty of them were
brought together in this city, June 22
The scheme was the joint invention of
H. H. Balch, secretary of the National
Cordage company (by which the Twine
and Bagging Trust is incorporated) and
Oswald Wilson, president of the Farm
ers' Alliance exchange of this city,
both of whom hope to secure pleasant
offices in the projected reorganization.
Mr. Balch, it is said, presented to the
corporation *hich he is the secretary
such a luring picture of the advan
to be gained by connection with
the scheme that it undertook to pay
the expenses of the proposed meeting
and the traveling hotel expenses of the
people attending it. Mr. Wilson can
vassed the South and West in person
in the interest of the project and se
lected the men to be invited to come in
on the ground floor. When all things
were ready and the list had been made
sufficiently influential in appearance to
suit the concocters, notices were sent to
the selected individuals to meet at the
Astor House in this city, Sunday, June
21. Nearly every invitation brought
its man, but a few of the schemers went
to another hotel instead of the one ap
pointed as the general rendezvous and
thereby nearly gave the scheme away.
They were corralled by the leaders,
however, and escorted with other del
egates to Crede's South Beach Hotel,
on the bay shore side of Staten Island,
where the conclave was held behind
closed doors.
A GOODLY GATHERING.
Besides Balch and Wilson the fol
lowing men were present at the meet
ing : Col. W. Peek, of Georgia, presi
dent of the Georgia Alliance executive
committee ; C. WN. Macune, editor of
The National Economist of Washing
ton, chairman of the National Alliance
executive committee and father of th
notorious sub-treasury scheme ; D). F.
*Allen, of Hornellville, N. Y. ; J. F.
of Tennessee ; Rev. J. A.
Sligh, of Newber.y, S. . nA '
member of the South Carolina Legisia
ture ; W. W. Holland, of the National
Cordage company ; S. Otho Wilson, of
North Carolina; J. J. Rogers, of V ir
ginia,~ Frank J. Claypole and M. D).
Coffeen, of Kansas ; A. E. Spl*ague and
George A. Gowan, of Tennessee ;
George G. Cross, of Pennsylvania;
John M. Massay,.of Thomasville, Ga.;
C. E. Hamlin, from the West (Nebras
ka, it was thought); A.oWardall, of
South Dakota; George F. Garther, of
Birmingham ; business agent of the
Alliance for Alabama ; A. E. Cole, of
Florida ; J. A. Wickman and William
Dehon; of Florida, M. Barbee, of Ken
tucky ; A. T, McIntyre, of Thomas
ville, Ga., who expects to be the gen
eral Southern manager; J. T. Crawford,
Dallas, Tex. ; T. A. Clayton, of Louis
iana ; one McIntyre, a lawyer of
Thomasville, Ga., brother of A. T. Mc
Intyre; W. H- Worth, of Raleigh, State
business agent of the Alliance in North
Carolina, and tG. H.'Peck, an attache
of the National Cordage company, as
sistant to Boss Balch.
There were two or three others who
did not register at the South Beach
Hotel, but who attended all the meet
ings, returning to their hotels in this
city at night. Among them was a
representative of the Alliance in Ohio
and one from Chicago..
.The meetings were held in the main
dining room on the second floor, which
looks out from a broad piazza over the
Atlantic. The Chicago man, w'hose
name could not be ascertained to-day,
was elected chairman. Meetings were
held Monday night, nearly all day
Tuesday and Wednesday morning,
June 22, 23 and 24. Nearly all the
persons attending remained at thze
South Beach hotel throughout the
three days. The National Cordage
company is said to have footed the
bill.
A DAZZLING SCHEME.
The scheme which Balchu and Wilson
launched upon the meeting was for a
national organization of Alliance stores
and exchanges throughout the coun
try, with a national headquarters in
this city, a principal branch establish
ment in Chicago, state central ex
changes in every State, district organi
zation in every Congressional district
and county, and city exchanges wher
ever feasible. The object was to con
trol the trade of the Alliance members,
selling to them on the co-operative
plan through the local exchanges
everything tbey should ever wish to
buy. at a slight advance on the whole
sale prices; the head office to pay for
the merchandise ; to handle the sur
plus products of the farms for the
farmers, and to act as bankers for them
whenever.
The branch headquarters at Chicago
were designed as a main source of sup
ply for pork, lard, flour and other pro
visions, and for some kinds of agricul
tural implements, wagons and furni
ture. From New York, or through
the agency there, it was designed to
make all necessary purchases in a
wholesale way, of machinery, boots
and shoes, clothing, hats and caps,
sewing machines, harness, carpets, oil
cloths, fertilizers, hardware, dry goods,
medicines, weapons, books, and such
other stuff as could not be obtained to
But this gigantic scheme could not
be floated without substantial capital
and without the general acceptance
and co-op-ation of the members of the
Alliance. 'he National Cordage com
pany stood ready, provided it was
given exclusive privileges in the sup
ply of cotton bagging and binder twine
to the Alliance exchanges, to lend sub
stantial financial assistance to the
scheme, and some of the p- aoters
were very ready to accept it; p. >posi
tion. Bnt Colonel Peck, of Georgia,
refused to countenance any such iron
clad agreement. He was willing to
arrange with the Twine Trust to pay
its own price for such of its cotton
bagging and twine as the members
and exchanges might want ; but he
had recently investigated a new kind
of cotton bagging of which he thought
very favorably, and he not propose to
be bound so that he could not buy some
if he wanted to. Enough of the others
joined him to prevent the consumma
tion of the little $10,000,000 scheme of
the Twine Trust. Finally it was pro
posed to effect a corporate organization
under as favorable legal c; ditions as
could be obtained-and the New Jer
sey law regardling corporations was
considered quite sufficently accom
modating-with a nominal capital of
at least $10,000,000, A system of pre
ferred proprietary shares of this class
to be apportioned among the present
promoters, and to be nonassesable, paid
up and everlasting. These shares only
should be represented in the governing
organizations. Then there was to be
an issue of common shares, which
should be open to subscription by the
local exchanges and their individual
members, upon which the directors
should levy assessments as necessary
in order to provide funds for the trans
action of business of the central ex
change. But the holders should be
entitled to no share of the government
of the institution.
THE PLAN TO BE PUSHED.
The scheme as set forth was gen
erally acceptable, and some of the pro
moters were for having it immediately
approved and put in operation ; but
Colonel Peck and Messrs. Gowan and
Garther were opposed to such a sum
mary proceeding. They were appar
ently unable to satisfy themselves of
the wisdom of the scheme and would
not consent to have anything to do
with it until it had received the ap
proval of the Alliance through its
various channels of expression.
Accordingly the scheme was formu
lated in a glowing prospectus, in which
the name of the institution was quoted
as the National Alliance Union and
resolutions were adopted calling upon
the State exchanges to submit the
scheme to the judgment of their subor
dinate district and county exchanges.
The resolutions further provide that if,
and when a sufficient number of
the subordinate exchanges, speaking
through their respective Stat~e er
changes, approve the plan) ttre chair
man of the South BeaKr ieeting shall
issue a call for a ional con'vention of
State delega e to consider and form
ulate finally adopt and organize
th scheme. Secret circulars to this
effect have been sent to the State ex
changes of every State where there is
one to be found. The district treas
urers are being quietly educated to the
plan and will presently go out among
the alliances to boom it along.
Alluring promises of cheap prices to
the farmer, high prices for his produce
and long dividends on the shares will
be expected to buy, to provide "work
ing capital" for the proprietary share
holders, will ibe the inducements held
out to him.

The world wouldn't go so confoundedly slow!

Broadway car, and immediately all the
men forgot their newspapers. She was
as soft and fresh as a rose, and seemed
to have the fragrance of one in her

had red colored hair and malignant
eyes. To him the fair young woman
handed a dime. The conductor looked
at the coin as it lay on his grimy palm
and banded it back to the girl.
"That's no good," said he. "It's

"It's what?" asked the girl, glancing
at the piece of money.
"It's punched. It's got a hole in

"Ah, so it has. Don't you like coins

"Oh, no," replied the girl. "I am

"Of course you are. Well I suppose,

"That is very true. We m-ust do to

"Exactly. And if I was to get on a
