London, June 22nd —At to-day's auction, 278 packages of Ceylon and Straits 

 Settlements plantation grown rubber were under offer, of which only 92 changed 

 hands in the room. The total weight amounted to about 15| tons, Ceylon contri- 

 buting 3£ and Straits Settlements llf. The market has maintained the quiet tone 

 recently ruling, and orders being scarce, few of the large buyers were inclined to 

 operate to any great extent. As a result competition was restricted, and a large 

 proportion of the offerings had to be retired for lack of support. Where sales were 

 effected some concession had to be given on last prices, but for the most part 

 sellers preferred to have recourse to the private market. Plantation bis- 

 cuits and sheet to-day 5s. 9d. to 5s. lid., same period last year, 6s. 5d. to 6s. 7Jd. 

 Plantation scrap. 4s. 6d. to 5s-, same period last year, 4s. 3id. to 5s. 5|d. Fine hard 

 Para (South American) 5s. 2|d., same period last year, 5s. 8d. Average price of 

 Ceylon and Straits Settlements plantation rubber.— 92 packages at 5s. 3Jd. per lb., 

 against 123 packages at 5s. 8d. per lb. at last auction.
