"V* w Orleans Klee Market,
New Orleans, Sept. 6.—The week opened
with the rice market in a much healthier
condition than it has enjoyed for quite a pe
riod. The tirinness of planters ami commis
sion merchants m resisting (ho bearish influ
ences oxisting iu tlMi market, and slurlng
goods rather than se'l at a sacrifice, has
stimulated an improvement and brought
speculation to the rescue. There was a good
shipping demand for clean lice to-dav, and
speculators have taken bold lo some extent,
thereby expressing their confidence in a
speedy reaction fr m the present low prices.
The turnout of the mills is moderate for the
season, but stocks are good and the assort
ment is fair, good grade* predominating.
Prices are a shade fli liter. Rough rice Is in
ample stock and receipts are large, consid
erable tjbaulUtes are being stored in ware
houses and holders are m l pressing sales.
Millers have picked uu coulidomv and the
demand has improved iogeihti with prices.
The receipts to-day comprised 4 Pis sacks of
rough and 760 barrels of clean. The sales a*
reported to the Produoe Exchange were 2,678
barrels of clean and 4,724 sacks i f rough.

THE KICK CHOP ISSUE
Between tlic New Orleans Produce
Exchange and the Messrs. Tal
inage’s Sons At Cos.
From the Xew York Journal of Commerce,
Se'Vt. ft.
A considerable excitement seems to pre
rail in New Orleans over alleged misre
presentations of the rice crop, and the
feeling has become so intensified that the
Produce Exchange has issued the follow
ing:
Nv.w Ohleans Pkoduck Exchange,)
Aug. 28, 1886. i
In view of tho fact that reports have gone
abroad stating that the rice crop now being
harvested is unripe aud unmerchantable, the
Exchange, after a careful and thorough in
vestigation. pronounce nil such reports false,
without foundation, aud calculated only to
injure the rice interests of Louisiana.
Upon careful examination the incoming
crop is found to lie exceptional! v fine, well
matured and entirely safe to handle.
Dknnis Lanai’X,
Chairman Kiev Committee.
IT. G. Smith, Set rotary.
We gather, fiotn a long editorial in the
i Titnes-Domocrat, that Messrs. Dan. Tal
| mage’s Sons A Cos. are the chief, it not the
only offenders. The Messrs. 'l'a ini age are
too well known in this city to need any
indorsement. With forty-five years of
honorable commercial record, they will
undoubtedly be able to survive anv at
tacK. Mr. .loan F. Talmage. the senior
of the firm, gave their side of the story as
follows: Mr. Talmage said: “A mountain
l.as been made out of a mole hill. From
time to time we issue oirculara to our
trade, and in them we give suggestions as
to what we thtuk wili be tho probable
course of tho market. They are tot based
upon sell-interest entirely, for we
try to give a forecast that will
serve our trade in operating. There is an
old saving that. 'Wise men change oiten;
fools, never,’ So our opinions have to be
varied according to the time of year and
j condition of crop. When we prognosti
! rate a rise vre are called ‘bulls’ and re
j reive many a 'God bless you’ from the
i rice grower and speculator. When, on
j the other hand, we advise caution or pre
dict a low er plane of values, we are called
•bears’ and then receive the condemna
tion of the aforementioned. It makes but
little difference to us, however, what they
sav, as we find, to use a Western phrase,
'Talk is cheap, hut it takes money to buy
land.’ We have long since found that
out capital in trade is the good will of
our friends and patrons throughout the
country. Here is the head and front of
our offending in t his part icular instance.”
With this, Mr. Talmage handed the fol
lowing circular:
•'Ni iv Orleans, Aug. 19—New crop has
been offering in a limited wav for past ten
•lays, Imt as many of the enlt ngs were green
we felt indisposed to operate. Now the crop
is arriving in much more liberal supply, and
the present nneharvest weather hue resulted
in more thoroughly cured goods. We would
not advi-o our friends to buy largely, judging
it saferto purchase sparingly till tlic crop is
harvestod aud the market finds its proper
level. Price of new crop ranges from (<■ to
6c., quality good to prime. ‘So-called’ new
crop, we understand, has been offered for less
money, buton Investigation we find that some
enterprising genius is trying to work off his
old reimmuts under the 'new’ name. An old
‘racket;’ it don’t pay.”
Mr. Talmage then continued: “We
consider that a very temperate statement.
Kice always declines from the opening
point—sometimes a very large item—this
year having been no exception. As re
gards the condition of the crop, you will
note that we refer incidentally to the
fact that many of the ‘cuttings were
green,’ but in the next sentence—note
ibe presence of ‘thoroughly cured goods.’
It is hardly necessary for us to have any
statement of ours corroborated, still we
take pleasure in presenting certain evi
dence which will show that we were
warranted in making such. We have in
our possession correspondence from
those largely interested iu rice in
Louisiana, from which we gather
that the rice was being hadlv
damaged because of low water, the river
being too low to allow pumping. And in
reference to certain rice that was shipped
to this market, the comment made there
on is, ‘badly broken and chalky; cut too
green.’ The quotation, by the way, to
which we allude is taken from a letter
doled Aug. 18, while our circular was
dated Aug. 10, so it is evident that others,
as well as our manager, were a ware of
the condition of the crop. 1 dislike to
contradifet any statement of tne New Or
leans Produce Exchange, for they are an
honorable body; but they certainly have
been misled, it states,‘Upon careful ex
amination, the Incoming crop is found to
be exceptionally line.’ You will note that
their circular is dated Aug. 28. I
cal! especial attention to ibe date, for on
Aug. 31 we received from those who aie
the equal of any m rice, the following:
‘Have personally visited (day before yes
terday. 2!Hh ) the rice region,and with our
own eyes, have seen large quantities of
rice that will not pay to cut on account
of it# dried up condition—yellow—scarce
ly any beads. You can surely sav that
ail the young rice, about one-quarter of
the whole crop, is badly crippled, to what
extent time will toll.’
“I no'e that you state In your circular
that someone is trying to work off'his old
remnants under the ‘new name.’
••That was, and is to-day. a laet. There
wi re carried over about 30,000 to 00,000
barrels of rough, which would parbaps
make 10,000 to 20,000 clean. These parcels
of course look bright and fresh, and are
really good rice. All that wo objected to
was the untruth. Wo believe in calling
things by their right names.”
‘*A report has been circulated here that
a combination has been formed against
you in New Oceans with a view to drive
you from the trade?”
“We believe there was some attempt,
but like all foolish agreements it could
net be consummated, if it were not ego
tistical we would say that we oan do
more easily without New Orleans than
New Orleans can do without us.”
“Is it not strange that such warm ex
ception Is taken to your course?”
‘'•Well, it would strike us as very odd
did we not know the ‘true inwardness,’
The secret of the ureat hue and cry Is
this: When the crop opened we had a
larL'e number of open orders by which we
weu' able to pay aov reasonable rale for
eany arrivals. These were picked up and
shipped to our thousand and one friends,
buiour purchaeesevidently misled others,
as a quotation from one of our friends
In New Orleans states: ‘Our market
shows more lile since yesterday. Since
the trade found out that your firm had
bought, they pitched in and bought nearly
all licit was offered. Prices are firmer.’
Having completed our purchases for im
mediate delivery wo stepped down and
out. The others who bad purchased In
anticipation of orders found themselves
without their host, and tub market hav
ing declined nearly a cent a pound are
confronted with a loss, henco these
tears.”
‘•How Is the present crop?”
“That ol Louisiana is unusually fine;
that is to sav, a very large proportion is
a very handsome quality. Much of the
late rioe which was planted iu May and
Jtine has been badly Injured by the lack
of water at flooding time, and as our cor
respondent. lias above noted, some will
hardly pay to out, and other again will
show the effect ol the luck of moisture.
In amount the crop will probably be
about 400,000 to 425,000 barrel*.”
“Are prices unduly low ?”
‘•The probable course of the market can
lie better anticipated in .November and
December, by which time the bulk of the
Louisiana, as well as the Carolina crop
has reached factors’ and millers’ bands.
In comparison with foreigurloe we might
say that the (lemestie now sella at about
one cent bol w equal and competing
grades ol the former. This low plane of
v allies Is ine result of ruinous and fool
ish mnnacemont on the part of various
planters’ agents, in tbeir anxiety to get
tiici las’ ftrthlnK thsv have consigned
goods at, random, many times to those
who were ignorant of tho business. We
consider that thecropof the United States
was tooled away last year and that by
proper concentration anil judicious man
agement the planters as a body would
have been richer ly fully a million to a
million and a half dollars.”
