KAURI GUM MARKET. The following are the quotations for the kauri gum marltet for the week ending March 31, 1897:- , . Poor ordinary, which comprises weak and rough-coated pieces, pickings, and washed nuts, £25 to £27. , Ordinary, meaning hard, rough-scraped gum, varying in price according to the quantity of washed nuts, £35 to £37. Good ordinary, meaning hard, unpicked range gum, price varying according to _ size, scraping, and freedom from weals pieces, from £40 and upwards. East Coast, £63. Re-scraped, £88 and upwards. Supplies for March: 495 tons. This is an exceedingly small figure as compared with the production for the same month in previous years, but orders are so small that tho short supply has no effect in hardening prices, which are, if anything, weaker all round, especially East Coast.
