GOW, WILSON AND STANTON, LIMITED, 
India Rubber Market Report. 
13, Rood Lane, London, E.C. 
December 6 th, 1907. 
This was about the largest auction of plantation rubber that has 
yet been held, and the stronger tone of the market was well evidence 
by the good competition that was forthcoming for all grades. 
About one half of the offerings were disposed of m the room at 
prices generally showing an advance of from about 4 d. to °d. Per lb. 
on last sale quotations. This is more satisfactory in view of the fact 
that the Bank Rate remains unchanged, and that the position m 
America as yet hardly admits of active business in that market. 
Sheet and biscuits were in good demand and sold readily at from 
about 3/11 to 4/4I per lb., the latter price being realised for some very 
fine dark sheet from Highlands Estate, while the highest price for 
biscuits, viz., 4/3, was paid for some from Arapolakande and 
Glencorse Estates. 
Crepe was rather more plentiful than other descriptions, and the 
quotation suffered to some extent in consequence. Some of the palest 
offered, viz., that from Jebong, was withdrawn for higher units, and 
the highest price for this grade was 4/2I paid for a small lot from 
Arapolakande. 
Block continues to be less sought after than other kinds, and 
66 cases of fine clear amber block from Lanadron Estate were bought 
in for want of competition.
