12 WAREHOUSES IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. in due time the holder of the warrant may have the goods sold ; but the right of recourse is lost if they are not sold within thirty days after the warrant has been protested. The assignment of the certificate of ownership to the holder of the warrant is in effect a legal transfer of the goods. If the certificate of ownership is assigned without the warrant, the assignee’s title becomes the same as was that of the assignor, and the rights of the warrant holder are in no wise affected by the transaction. Whenever the owner presents the entire certificate of deposit or its two parts, and pays all storage dues and expenses, the goods must be delivered to him. They must also be delivered to him, even though the warrant is not in his hands, if he deposits with the ware house a sum sufficient to cover the amount of the loan and the interest up to the time the loan falls due. This may be done at any time before the period of deposit or that of loan has expired. If the warrant is paid in full, it must be surrendered; but if it is paid only in part, then the amount paid is simply indorsed on the warrant. In such a case the warrant holder has recourse and may protest against all parties liable for any loss or damage sustained by him. The warehouse has a lien on all goods in its custody for storage charges and expenses incurred, as well as a right to sell such goods whenever the stipulated term of deposit has expired, or after one year if they are deposited for an indefinite period, or at any time when the goods are in danger of perishing. The proceeds of such sales must be applied to the payment of claims in the following order: (1) Custom and excise duties; (2) expenses of sale; (3) warehouse dues and expenses; (4) claim of the warrant holder. Any balance left must be paid to the owner. STORAGE CHARGES. For the purpose of fixing storage charges the warehouse adminis tration has formed six classes of merchandise.
