IviiMUN'i) SciiLiiTER & Co. report [March 31] : 

 The position lias gained in strength through the small receipts 

 during March, and there can scarcely be any doubt but that the 

 increase in the actual use of Amazon rubber during the nine months 

 of the season far surpasses the increase in receipts. It is therefore 

 probable that prices will continue to rule high
