WAREHOUSES IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. 
The treatment of sugars was once a very great interest in the 
Deposito Franco, but since 1807, with the notable development of 
the Italian sugar-manufacturing industry, few foreign sugars arrive. 
A few hundred sacks will now be found on deposit against 100.000 
at one time. There are some rooms in the buildings which can be 
used as private offices, so that the depositors can carry on their entire 
business there if they so desire.
