The New Orleans bulletin. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1874-1876, 1875-09-25


The market opened with moderate inqui-
~ and operations restricted by brokers claim
ing concessions which factors were unwilling
to grant, but later in the day the movement
became more animated, resulting in the lib
eral sales noted above. Some BUYERS alleged
that they found factors rather more stringent
in their pretensions, but others reported
prices easier. Middling sold as low as 1870
which is &c below our inside quotations, and
Strict Middling at 49, The kilograms from
New York were unfavorable spots being
quoted 10 lower, but on the other hand the
accounts from the country were well calcu-
lated to inspire factors with increased conf
dence.
There can be little doubt that the disastrous
effects of the late storm have been felt to a
much wider extent than was at first supposed,
and that while the Texas crop must have been
materially curtailed, good deal of injury has
been done to that of the districts tributary to
this market The damage was greatest where
most OF the crop was open. But even before
the storm the letters were gloomy, and fully
confirmed the discouraging accounts previ-
ously given. Under such circumstances, with
cloudy and rainy weather to-day, more appre-
hension was felt with regard to the length and
character of the picking season, and of the
danger of an early killing frost. But notwith-
standing these views, factors found it neces-
sary to meet the demand freely in order to
prevent an inconvenient accumulation of
stock, and provide for the wants OF the plant
ers
