2U0 WAREHOUSES IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. Two men could work a bonded warehouse of the average capacity of 5,000 tons. The classes of goods stored comprise wines and spirits, beer, to bacco, cigars, tinned fish, barbed wire, preserved fruits, etc. Spirits remain in bond a considerable time, but it is hardly possible to state with any certainty how long any goods remain as a rule. All goods stored for three years have to be rewarehoused or sold. American firms make very little use of the bonded warehouses in this district. All nationalities are treated exactly alike by the administrators of the warehouses. Goods are removed to and from bonds by drays and lorries. The service is ample and satisfactory. Prices range from 36 to 60 cents per ton, ships’ weight or measurement, as the case may be. Each bonded warehouse is under the personal supervision of a customs officer during official hours. The owners are under sub stantial security to the department. There are two locks of different pattern for each bond, the key of one being held by the bond pro prietor and that of the other by the department. W. J. Weatherill, Consular Agent. Brisbane, Queensland, July 0#, 1901^. NEWCASTLE, NEW SOUTH WALES. (From United States Consul Goding, Newcastle, New South Wales.) There are nine bonded warehouses at Newcastle, owned by as many different firms; the total capacity is about 13,500 tons. In these warehouses the patrons’ goods are protected for him. The proprietor furnishes all labor and space required for receiving, stacking, repacking, and delivering the goods, and all implements necessary for examination, marking, weighing, coopering, etc. The proprietor also pays a license fee to the Federal Government, vary ing from $75 to $750 per annum, according to the size of the ware house and the time occupied in supervision by a customs official.
