a These statistics are for raw sugar up to 1896 and refined sugar since 1896. The consumption tax upon sugar was reduced from 70 to 40 francs per 100 kilograms in (law of July 19,1880), was raised to 50 francs in 1884 (law of July 29,1884), to 60 francs in 1887 (law of May 27,1887), to 64 francs in 1897 (law of April 7,1897). Since Sept ber 1,1903 (law of January 27,1903), the tax has been 27 francs per 100 kilograms for refined sugar.

6 In 1903 the excessive amount of imports of coffee was due to the threat of an increase in the import duties which was foreseen in the drift of the budget for 1904. c See Statistical Abstract for the Principal and Other Foreign Countries, London, 1910. d Provisional figures.

o The number of Institutions registered in the first column represents the total number of offices, strictly so called, and all other branches and receiving bureaus according to the decree of August 3,1875, and during the years 1876 to 1881 the postal bureaus authorized by the decree of August 3,1875, to conduct operations for the savings banks of their department. Beginning with 1880 with the creation of the Caisse Nationale d'fcpargne, the post-offices have ceased to assist the Caisse d'£pargne Ordinaires.
