 mani, G. Edwin .\lden, Albert Long, William H. Hildreth Arthur

 time past in Brazil. .Mso Mr. Long, who has been with the firm

 though the Messrs Symington have organized a new corporation, 

 William Symington & Co., Limited.

Liverpool. 



Edmund SchluTER & Co. report [August 31] : 

 These figures show a heavy increase of receipts both of Rubber 

 and Caucho. the result of an early crop, and it is possible that the 

 receipts during September may also exceed those of September, 



1905 Experience has, however, shown that large receipts during 

 the first half of the season are almost without exception followed 

 by proportionally moderate ones during the second half and con- 

 sumers will do well not to lose .sight of this fact.

William Wright & Co. report [September i]: 

 Fine Parii. — During the first half of the month the market was 

 firm and fairly active. Owing to some American orders spot prices 

 advanced to 55. 3^. ; towards the close the demand has been very 

 dull ; closing value 55. id. for Upriver. Islands has been rather 

 more inquired for, and up to 5.S. lYzd. was paid, closing at 5.S. 2(/. 

 America still continues quiet, and the tone there is rather easier. 

 At the moment there are no indications of an advance in prices.
