While much merchandise of American origin is stored in the Trieste warehouses, it is done by the purchasers. It can, therefore, not be said that Americans make any direct use of these warehouses. All nationalities that make use of the warehouses are treated ex actly alike. During the last decade the average length of time goods remained in bond in the Trieste warehouses was nine weeks. HANDLING OF GOODS. The Government owns and manages not only all the warehouses, but all the piers, lading sheds (hangars), and other appurtenances of the port as well. The administration of the warehouses furnishes the necessary force of men for the loading and unloading of vessels, except the work on board ; it places and operates the cranes, advises the receivers, receives the merchandise from the cranes, assorts it according to marks and bills of lading, and loads it on wagons or rail way cars. On the other hand, the administration receives merchan dise from the railway company or other carrier, weighs it, and places it on board the vessel. It also attends to certain custom-house formalities. All goods after being taken from the ship are deposited in the hangars. They are exempt there from warehouse charges for from three to five days, and the receiver must either remove them or dispose of them otherwise within this period. If he fails to do so, the ware house authorities may remove the goods from the hangars to the pub lic warehouses or may sell them at public auction. Goods awaiting shipment enjoy free hangar storage for a period of eight days. The following is the tariff for various services connected with the loading and unloading of freight : For removing goods from vessel’s hold to hangar, wagons, or rail way cars, without landing them on the quay, 4 heller (0.8 cent) per quintal (220.46 pounds) ; when goods are weighed on board the ship, 5 heller (1 cent) per quintal. This includes the compensation of the workmen required to remove the goods from the crane to the hangar or the railway car, also the supplying of cars. For removing goods from the crane to the quay, assorting them according to bills of lading and marks, advising receiver, and plac ing the goods on wagons or cars, 10 heller (2 cents) per quintal. A special rate, viz, 8 heller (1.6 cents) per quintal obtains for the fol lowing articles: Colophony and ordinary rosin, potatoes in sacks, earth colors, brass, logwood in blocks, grain, rags in bales, hemp in bales, lumber and sttives, Japan earth, jute in bales, flour, metal in
