Mr. Bradley said the conttnst between the condition of streets In this city nnd In the cities of Kurope "should make Philadel phia blush for shame " "The contractots me woise than the drivers," .Mr. Bradley said. "When it rains pedestrians arc bespattered with mud, and there seems to be no ledtess for the per sons whose clothing Is ruined "Like many cities In Kurope. we should hnvc an arrangement on street-cleaning wagons like n scoop attached to the sweep er to collect Jlio dirt and dust, which Is tho principal menace to public health. "Flushing tho streets is absolutely neces eary, as ate also closed tops for all ash carts nnd refuse wngons, so that, when tilled, they can be shut tight. It could be possible for these wagons to have an ar rangement attached on the order of the home vacuum cleaner which the housewife pushed by hand, In that way the dust would be l educed to a minimum. "Tho aslicarts on Twelfth street, between Arch and Baco streets, arc a Joke on the Commonwealth. They are a public nuisance and dltease bleeders. They tlitow their dust and dirt Into the faces of the pedestri ans and the drivers laugh when the citizens complain." Lifting of Greek Blockade Asked LONDON. Feb. 3.
