London, December 7th, 1906.— At to-day's auction, 289 packages of Ceylon 

 and Straits Settlements plantation grown rubber were under offer, of which 

 about 217 were sold. The total weight amounted to about 16^ tons, Ceylon con- 

 tributing over 4 and Straits Settlements over 12. All good class plantation rubber 

 was in strong demand. A small lot of biscuits from the Aberdeen estate realised 

 5s 8£d, the highest price made for this kind, and 5s 7Jd was obtained for a parcel from 

 the Kumaradola estate. The best bid for fine crepe was 5s 7|d, this being for a lot 

 from the C.M.R.E. Co. The highest quotation for sheet was 5s 5|d. Other kinds also 

 passed at fairly firm rates, except for some inferior scrap, the demand for which 

 was not so strong, and several parcels were withdrawn from sale. Plantation 

 fine to-day 5s 7 hi, to 5s 83d, same period last year, 5s lid to 6s l^d. Plantation scrap
