Scope and content
It has been considered that the country would be much cleaner and municipal sweepers’s work would be made much easier if the garbage and stinky stuff accumulated in people’s houses were not put on the street, but instead put into a pot to be taken by sweepers passing by every day. Hence, as regards warning not only all Ottoman subjects, but also the subjects of foreign states and the Jewish nation, it is appropriate to send a letter to all consulates and to the Chief Rabbi. The 15th of Nîsân (1)314 (27th of April 1898).
