The New Orleans Tiines-Demoerat says: At the close yesterday Liverpool was 20 English points or 40 American points higher on new crop deliveries than Im mediately before the reading of the bu reau reports Wednesday, while New Or leans was higher on October by 27 points. Liverpool is called the consumers' mar ket, while New Orleans is called the pro ducers’ market. There Is food for re flection ip this parity drift. Neverthe less, there are many men who profess to believe the local market Is fast ap proaching a good selling basis, and are so advising then' friends. In this connec tion. here are some facts that might lie remembered wnn profit. One year ago. when the South was on the road to a 16.- f'CO.OOO-bale crop, and when the irade ex pected 15,000.000 bales. October New' Or leans sold at 13.29. and later advanced to I.
