100 WAREHOUSES IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. francs ($18,142). The "ross receipts were 202,000 francs ($38,980), and the gross expenses 108,000 francs ($20,844). All sorts of goods are stored, but chiefly wheat, coffee, sugar, wine, oil, and china. I give the principal charges per 100 kilograms (220.46 pounds), and per month: Wheat, corn, maize, etc., 1.5 cents; coffee, in sacks, 2.9 cents ; sugar, in sacks, 1.9 cents ; in boxes, 2.9 cents ; wine, spirits, oil, in casks, 2.9 cents; in bottles, 5.8 cents; stoves, 5.8 cents; mineral waters, 3.9 cents; china, packed, 3.9 cents; unpacked, 5.8 cents; hardware, 5.8 cents; fruits, in sacks, 2.9 cents; in boxes, 3.9 cents; machines, packed, 3.9 cents; unpacked, 5.8 cents; food pre serves, 5.8 cents; furniture, packed, 3.9 cents; unpacked, 5.8 cents. Persons of all nations are entitled to the use of these warehouses, and the same tariff is applied uniformly.

There is in both places only one exit for goods, and at all other doors customs officials are placed to prevent fraudulent passage of merchandise. (From United States Vice and Deputy Consul-General Smith-Lyte, Constantinople, Turkey.) Warehouses for the storage of merchandise in transit or in bond and from which goods may be withdrawn for shipment elsewhere without paying the customs dues do not exist in this capital. There are spacious warehouses in connection with and forming part of the custom-houses in this city. Dimensions can not be obtained. Those of the Galata custom-house are of a very tempo rary character. When the Constantinople quays (Galata side) were completed in 1897 the custom-house was given accommodation, and sheds and galvanized zinc buildings were erected temporarily. These have remained in use to this day. There are, however, two large stone warehouses in the Stamboul custom-house. In these warehouses goods may be left for a whole year, but after that, unless cleared, they are sold by public auction and the proceeds used to pay accumulated storage. Merchandise intended for the city may remain eight days without paying storage, from the ninth day storage commences, at the following rates per day: Daily storage rates per package at Constantinople warehouses.
