On Friday Of last week thirty-six

Of Ceylon alone should, unless some
unforeseen disaster overtake IL, an

100000 acres more rubber than is or
has ever been yearly obtained from
the whole continent Of Africa. Fur
thermore. Malaga and Ceylon alone
should within five or six years an
nually produce more rubber than the
whole of Brazil and Central America
gave us last year. -r.sFs srs
Important Changes Imminent.
It should be clear from this that the
day is near at hand when the balance
Of powers In the crude rubber market
will be considerably changed. Brazil
has hitherto had the monopoly ami
the officials there know how the coun-
try has prospered from the revenue
from rubber alone. Africa has, unlike
Brazil. been largely dependent upon
vines as sources OF rubber, and the
lessened production noticeable. espe-
cially during the past few years, is
regarded as hopeless. Boei Brazil and
Africa alike realize that the shadow
of huge plantation supplies is upon
them, and that sooner or later the
abundance OF rubber will have its eff
feet on price. Inferior grade Africans
which make up a good part Of that
continents supply. must suffer first;
then the better grades from bushes
and trees other than Hevea, and fin
ally must come struggle between
rubber from the wild and from the
cultivated farms of Hevea. The sup
ply, In the event Of low prices, will
be most seriously curtailed from Afri-
ca; II will also be evident In tropical
America. but not In the same degree.
The Brazilian authorities are giving
all possible aid and encouragement
to those concerned with the collec-
ton Of rubber in that part OF the
world, and their country can always
be relied upon to give fair yield.
Complete extinction of the wild rub
Der crops from the forests Of Africa
or America there cannot be, In virtue

means OF employment. Yet a curtail-
ment In supplies from wild areas is
certainty. when Eastern plantation
crops shall be coming over at the rate
OF 1900 tons per month.
Hitherto London has not ranked as
Of much Importance as centre for
rubber, Liverpool having always held
the first position. Now change Is
already evident. Most Of the planta-
ton companies are owned by COM
panies whose interests more or less
compel them to sell their produce
In Mincing-lane. This business will
continue TO grow AZ the yielding cap
acity OF estates increases. while that
OF Liverpool will, In consequence OF
lower supplies from Africa and Brazil
tend to lessen. Most London brok-
ers, when asked what prospects they
have Of dealing monthly with 5000
tons Of plantation rubber, seem dis
turbed. No time should he lost In
preparing the way for the disposal
OF such quantities, for they will he
upon us much earlier than most peo-
pie imagine.

When not engaged in watching Ho-
! nolulu grow. all eyes are turned these
days to the sugar quotations.
Hawaii will have the banner crop
Of It's history this year, aud 1t has
good prospect of receiving the banner
price. Each day brings renewed evil
dence of serious disaster to the Eu-
ropean beet crop, and no danger Of
the planting for next season being
sufficiently Increased to create an ex-
ceptional surplus as was the case In
1905 TO which condition attention has
already been called In these columns.
Following the rise Of beets to a
present parity of SIG the price for
centrifugals has gone up till on
Thursday. the quotation OF 4.S6S75 was
received with the cable report OF spot
sugars being sold In small quantities
q in New York at even higher fig
ure. ~.
No one now cares to predict where
the price Of sugar will finally land.
Spectators OF Europe are OF course
making the most of the dry weather.
The assumption Is that the prices are
higher than the actual condition fully
justiiies. But IL the rains hold of,
crop returns will go from bad to
worse. and the spectators thus make
good. That is the status thus far,
and the end Is not yet.
On the mainland, the situation Is
certain to be Influenced by the crou
reports. The season OF dry weather
has done widespread damage to the
general crops OF the country, damage
that has not been equalled for ten
years. II the fruit crop Is seriously
reduced this will OF course materially
check the consumption OF sugar. II
must be admitted, however, that the
adverse conditions as regards the
worlds production OvershadOw any.

sumption.
