 India Rubber Market Report. 



13 & 23, Rood Lane, London, E.C. 

 12th, February 1909. 



Since the last sale we have had a further improvement in the tone 

 of the market, and although there was a slight set back early this week, 

 to-day's auction, at which the offerings were larger than at the last, a 

 strong demand prevailed, and out of 1,680 pkgs. only about 58 were 

 withdrawn, and prices generally marked an irregular advance of from 

 2d. to 4d. per lb. and more in some cases. 



The darker kinds of crepe and unwashed scrap were most enquired 

 for and met with keen competition; in some instances there was an 

 advance on these kinds of up to 6d. per lb. 



The offerings of Sheet and Biscuits were fairly large, and there 

 were some fine parcels of Crepe represented ; one of these from 

 C.M.R.E., Ltd. realised the highest price of the sale, viz. 5/8}, a small 

 lot of L. coming next with 5/8}, and Warriapolla biscuits sold at 5/7}.
