GOW, WILSON & STANTON, Limited- 

 India Rubber Market Report. 



18 & 23 Rood Lane, London, E.C. 



24th, July 1908. 



Under the influence of a very quiet market, prices have declined 

 since the last auction. To-day's offerings met with poor competition, 

 and a large proportion had to be withdrawn for want of support. 



With the exception of a few parcels the quality generally was 

 disappointing, and where sales were pressed, quotations marked an 

 irregular decline, which was most noticeable on the medium and lower 

 grades of Crepe, Scrap, etc., and these were in some instances disposed 

 of at considerably lower rates than those ruling at the last sale. 



The highest price was realised for a small parcel of very pale fine 

 Sheet, marked B. & D., which sold at 4/7J. The next highest quo- 

 tation was 4/6 for a pale lot of C. M. R. E. Crepe. 



Sheet and Biscuits were in little request, the quotation being 

 about 4/0} to 4/2.
