Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1872-11-08
GENERAL MARKET.

The prices in the general marketare affected
by the recent advance IN 81 Louis freight
more than anything else and the movement
understanding the precise condiuon OF
freights. We publish below the rates 70 this
city from ST Louis by river and b. -
latter is quite below the former. But the ral-
road, though running quicker Is apt 20 de-
hveT slower, owing to delay In leading up
freight therefore us V prices are Les
tempting than they appear 10 be and the river
has more confidence nom the shipper han
the rail. Telezrams, however, were received
this morning from II. Louis stating that the
railroad was undertaking to receive freights
for Memphis at the rates we publish below
and 10 deliver them within the time the river
transportation company makes us oeAEeriS.
We know that sales were made this ornln
lower than they would have BEEN on the
ground Of this telegram. In the Ohio S whole
Meet OF produce, loaded on hatboats, Is aWeit-
Of the rivers; two lines are also
ready 70 pour feed and produce upOn Us Ike a
food. The st. Louis railroad connection pre-
fers not 70 await the formidable heet that Is
bound this way, but at once 70 give this mar
ket al the advantage tia can come from
speed and ~cheapness- A barrel Of flour can
be brought from Cincinnati for Gc by rail-
roGd-frum ST. Louis by river II costs l5c. Ihls
viii be remembered in looking over prices
below. Without this explanation some Of the

impression prevails among buyers that hold
