GOWi WILSON & STANTON, LTD., 
INDIAN RUBBER MARKET REPORTS. 
13, Roo® Lane, London, E.C. * 
At to-day’s auction, 206 packages of Ceylon and Straits Settle- 
ments Plantation grown rubber were under offer, of which 77 were 
sold. The total weight amounted to about 84 tons, Ce^on contribut- 
ing \\ and Straits Settlements nearly 6. 
There has been a decided recovery in prices since the last auction, 
and for fine sheet and biscuits 5/9 was generally obtained. 
Demand ran chiefly on the fine grades, and competition for scrap ^ 
was again lacking ; a few parcels of this sold up to 4/9, but the greater 
part was bought in to be disposed of privately. 
There were several parcels of the medium and~dark grades of 
crape included in the auction, but these did not attract buyers, and 
there was only a small quantity of the palest kind offering.
