New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-09-17
CLASSIFICATION, Ass;a'LAT1D
gHAg OF LIVERPOOL.

The sales included good ordinary az l8c.
strict do at 1880 and 18Ac, low middling
| at 1812c, 1880 and lS3&c, strict do at I834c,
1880 and l9c, and strict middling at 1912c.
The demand was mostly for HaYre, with a
fair amount for Liverpool, and ran on low
middling and strict low middling, the
prices realized for which indicated an i'm
provement Of lBc, kinds which sold on
Saturday respectively at l8l2c, 1880. 1890
and 1880, commanding 1880, 1890, 1880
and 100. We noticed no Improvement in
| good ordinary or in middling and the higher
| grades. The market was strengthened by
! an advance in foreign exchange and more
! competition among buyers, twelve brokers
participating il the business, and seemed
| to be but little affected by the decline of
| l-l6d reported at Liverpool The course of
| the New York market excited some com.
ment. At 1850 P. NJ. the Exchange
| kilograms reported a reduction of 1sc on
| all grades, putting middling uplands at
| 2078c, and Orleans ut 2U3Bc. AT T. III. the
| quotations were revised, and, compared
with Saturday, good ordinary was reduced
| lBc, low middii1g of all growths asc, mid
| ding lac, and good middling lc, which put
middling uplands at 20l3c, and middling
Orleans at Il. At the same time futures
were advanced for some months and re
duced for others. The reporter at New York
ought to have made some explanation of
this matter. 1t can hardly be supposed
that good middling declined 7sc in the time
between 1880 and 3 ?. NJ If it did not,
then the previous quotations must have
been illusOry. The matter is, no doubt,
susceptible of explanation, but the expana-
ton should have been given. Unexplained,
such kilograms are calculated to impair con
fidence.
