CEYLON PRODUCE OUTLOOK. 
London, 2ncl Oct., 1903. 
The markets keep steady firm. Silver 27§. Bank 
Rate 4 per cent. Consols 88 9-16. Lord Rothschild 
recommends buying Consols when about 87i, so the 
Chronicle reports. 
Ceylon CocONri Oil— firm, active, Spot £25. 
Ceylon Tea is very firm and likely to be so long as 
exporters are vrisely manipalated. 
Cotton (raw). — The corner and phenomenal rise in 
September. American turned out highly satisfactorily 
for the New York bull party. A lise of £240 for 
100 bales in a few hours caught belated European 
and American shorts terribly. Some settled 
privately. One European firm, we hear, cabled over 
his best thanks for being let out so easily. The 
American crop looks lOi to 111 millions. The Indian 
crop ia being more freely used again in Lancashire 
and Continent. P g f Ceylon Tinnevellys are 4 5/8 
c i f Ootober.NovemberSuez. Manchester looks better. 
Bears talk of 4| to 4d for Ameriaan. 
Coffee— Santos is 293, and lots of people expect 
higher rates. 
Sugar— April, May and June Beet 93 Id is a buy 
down. 
Ceylon Cardamoms — better and dearer. 
Ceylon Rubbee— sold 4s 9Jd biscnita and Ss 6d scrap 
and privately scrap 3s 9d tone strong. 
We recommend shipments of all Ceylon Spices — 
Rubber, Coffee, Best Teas, Plumbago and Sugar. 
City men are mostly in favour of Mr Chamberlain's 
ideas (and Mr Balfour's) of closing the doors to those 
countries who boycot the system of free trade reci- 
procal and otherwise.

PRODUCE REVIEW. 
London, 9tli Oct., 1903, 
The markets keep steady fiim.— Quinine, Cloves and 
Sugar. 
Ceylon Cocoa — firm and people here think prices 
will keep up, 400 bags sold, good= 72s to 76s 6d ; smalls 
563 to 66s 6d. 
Ceylon Mace — fair Ceylons at 23 Id. 
Ceylon Nutmegs— in shell 703 8J ; broken shrivel 
at 6d. 
Coffee — hardening, Coffee re Santos futures March 
293 6d, some expect another Is rise. In America 
they think it is done enough and in 1905 some talk 
of 50s. 
Ceylon Oroton Seeds— 14s 6d to 23s. 
Ceylon Cinchona Bark— 4d to Is Id. Ceylon Or- 
chella-weed, nothing doing. Senna fine 8d, good 6d. 
Cotton — January-February Liverpool futures are 
4'96d. Some expect 4|d to 4d, but a frost would 
stir up prices. Manchester again looks brighter for 
the big Eastern markets. American crop looks lOf to 
11^ according to frost or no frost, but trade and 
stocks there look a bit fishy. Tinnevelly Cotton closes 
4 9-16 per lb f g f , o i f. 
Sugar Beet— firmer April-Jnne 9/0| tone looks poor 
at this price. 
Ceylon Rubbbb — privately keeps strong 4/9g buyers, 
Biscuits and Scraps Ss 9d. 
Mr. Chamberlain's Policy. — Almost every city 
man is in favour of it : and it should have been done 
years ago. Old mother England is at last "waking 
up," and the demand f jr Indian Tea (with a low duty) 
will be something treimeudons. Ceylon Tea and shares 
are advancing and the outlook closes decidedly strong. 
We recommend shipments of Ceylon Spices, Tea, 
Coffee, Cocoa, Rubber and Bark.
