CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 10
Since the taking over of the Con
stantinop,e, police by the Allies, great
improvements have been effected and
the capital is beginning slowly but
surely to assume the aspect of
modern town.
New regulations concerning the
hamals, or street porters. and the
street vendors have been put into
force with the result that any hamal
who now walks with his burden along
the pavement, whether it is a piano,
plank or a basket. in such a way
as to interfere with the, rights of
other pedestrians, is arrested and
fined The hamals and street ven
doris had habit of Hopping down
their burdens on the pavements, thus
compelling passers-by to make a de-
tour into the street The chief
trouble-givers in this respect were
the sellers of fruit and ice cream
They usually selected busy corner
TO sell their wares. and the crowds
had to swerve into the street This
was particularly annoying in narrow
streets-most of the streets in Con-
stantinOple are very narrow-and OF
corners. where one ran the danger of
being struck by tram or motorcar.
Among the dangers from wheeled
traffic was the habit" of the people
to ride on the footboard OF crowd
ed car. Where the tram lines are
close to the pavement. these limp
ets' frequently projected their per
son over the pavement, and in many
cases collided with pedestrians walk
ing peacefully along where they have
perfect right to be. That custom
is now prohibited.
Another great improvement effect
ed by the Allied authorities is the
prohibition of the aft midnight cries
of street vendors, such as fruit and
ice cream sellers, who prevented
people from sleeping in peace. The
only proper exceptions to this new
order is tho 'bekdji, or night watch
man, whose warning cry Of fire
everyone listens to with interest and
sometimes with dread, No one wants
