GOW, WILSON AND STANTON, LIMITED, 



India Rubber Market Report. 



13, Rood Lane, London, E.C. 



December 6th, 1907. 



This was about the largest auction of plantation rubber that has 

 yet been held, and the stronger tone of the market was well evidenced 

 by the good competition that was forthcoming for all grades. 



About one half of the offerings were disposed of in the room at 

 prices generally showing an advance of from about 4d. to 6d. per lb. 

 on last sale quotations. This is more satisfactory in view of the fact 

 that the Bank Rate remains unchanged, and that the position in 

 America as yet hardly admits of active business in that market. 



Sheet and biscuits were in good demand and sold readily at from 

 about 3/1 1 to 4/4^ per lb., the latter price being realised for some very 

 fine dark sheet from Highlands Estate, while the highest price for 

 biscuits, viz., 4/3, was paid for some from Arapolakande and 

 Glencorse Estates. 



Crepe was rather more plentiful than other descriptions, and the 

 quotation suffered to some extent in consequence. Some of the palest 

 offered, viz., that from Jebong. was withdrawn for higher limits, and 

 the highest price for this grade was 4/2 j- paid for a small lot from 

 Arapolakande. 



Block continues to be less sought after than other kinds, and 

 66 cases of fine clear amber block from Lanadron Estate were bought 

 in for want of competition.
