HONEST MEN PRIzED
 HIGHLY IN TURKEY
Their Word Must Be Taken, in
 Lieu of Any Laws

Constantinople, April 22.-An hon. est business man who will keep his word in a trade is priZed above fine gold in Turkey, for there is hardly a Jaw now functioning in this distracted country. A man who breaks his word in business is never let into the inner circles of big traders for honesty is today at higher rating here than ever before.
 One may steal or kill with a large limit of impunity. Some months since ill Baum, an Englishman was put upon and in self-defiance killed a man. Frightened as to consequences. he began collecting evidence to show he had acted in self-defense. After he had collected his evidence, he found no one was interested in the case, and also there was no one to whom he could submit it.
 Constantinople is an importing and exporting center, the logical clearing house for the Levant, with much merchandise in transit or in bond. Americans have traded here in un- precedented numbers since the arm istice, and some of them have lost money. Naturally they blame the To- cal agents, the city, the conditions. According to Julian Gillespie, the United States commercial attache, there is often a good deal to be said on both sides.
 Recently the correspondent met an American arriving here. I'm goins to stay few days to make some To- cal firms pay for goods,". said the American. "So far our local agent hasn't succeeded"
 "This is evidently your first time l,a ms ka days a few weeks advised tho cor respondent
 The American so far has spent two months, and he is still wrestling with conditionse one of which is that his local agent insists on opening his mail and private telegrams, and calling It Q "mistake.'
 It is generally stated that American exporters must begin at the bottom and secure laws at home which will give consignees mora protection. Boxes and pieces should be properly marked and cases filled. Ship car riers should be made to stow goods properly, so that given lot IS dis charged at the port of destination as a lot. not as series of separate pack ages. Also, bills of lading should be properly forwarded so the consignee will know when ms SOOQS VIII drriSe.
 It has happened at this port that ship with several lots of goods has discharged the lots in small parts in various lighters, and also without notification to the consignee, so the latter has lost heavily in time, damage, theft and storage charges. Also, cases often arrive empty or partially filled, or with goods not up to sam pie.
 Too often the American exporter has treated, this market as dump ing ground and sent goods of the qual- ity and nature used by Cook on his voyages of discovery through the Pa cific.
 These things being true, given con- ditions often bordering on Bedlam, the American is advised to be wars and remember the common saying or the Levant that 'it takes three Jews to outwit an Armenian. and three Armenians to outwit Creek
