GOW, WILSON & STANTON, Limited— 
India Rubber Market Report. 
13 & 23, Rood Lane, London, E. C. 
28th May, 1909. 
Since the last sale an active demand has e'xisted privately, princi- 
pally for the finer descriptions of Crepe. 
To-day’s auction was on a somewhat larger scale than the last, 
but nearly all kinds came to a strong market. Bidding was animated 
and a general advance of from 2d. to 4d. per lb. must be recorded. 
The strongest competition was for the finger grades of Crepe, Sheet 
and Biscuits. 
The highest price of the sale, viz., 5/ Ilf, was paid for a good 
quantity of Fine Block from the Lanadron Estate, whilst the High- 
lands and Lowlands Estate made the highest price for Smoked Sheet, 
viz., bill to 5/lli, Vallambrosa coming next with 5/11 to 511f, and 
Sekon following with 5/11. 
Finest Crepe sold at 5/10, this figure being obtained for a small 
lot from the Sagga Estate. 
The lowest grades of Crepe were a little irregular, but Scrap, which 
was in rather small supply, met with good attention and sold up to 5/ 0|.
