1 OMMISSIONERS trim the federal district nf the Acre recently 

 visited Rio de Janeiro for tin purpose 1 f laying before the 

 government the claims of this territory to statehood. The resi- 

 dent pi pulation is estimated at 70,000, and is increasing con- 

 stantly as a result of the settlemenl of the rich rubber regions 

 there from Ceara and other drought affected states. In 1904 

 Brazil paid Bolivia as indemnity for the Acre region 32,000 

 contos [ = $9,600,000] and up to June, 1909, the government had 

 received in export duties on rubber from this territory 62,000 

 contos [=$18,600,000] or double the amount paid, in addition to 

 several thousand conti 5 in revenue derived from imp rt duties.

STORAGE OF RUBBER IN EUROPEAN PORTS. 



""PllIC commerce in india-rubber and gutta-percha these days 

 * has ionic t" have many ramifications. Xot the least inter- 

 esting feature is the storage of these raw materials in the leading 

 ports of receipt for consumption. Two views on this page relate 

 to the premises of a company in London, in whose vaults and 

 warehouses is stored, sooner or later, an important proportion of 

 the rubber and gutta-percha arriving at that port. The company 

 referred to is the London and India Docks Co., with offices in 

 Leadenhall street. The premises set apart for their rubber busi- 

 ness are situated in the St. Katherine dock, near the offices of 

 the principal brokers and merchants in this branch. Since these 

 views were taken the property and some other dock properties 

 in London have been taken over by the city, so that ruhber and 

 other commodities imported there are now under control of mu- 

 nicipal authorities until passed into trade. The object of the 

 city was to acquire ownership of valuable real estate, with a 

 view to making London ultimately the best equipped shipping 

 port in the world.
