Move on Scutari PHE public, or that portion which is following the move- ments of the Allied fleets about the Dardanelles, sees frequently the mention of Scutari.

It is of some importance, hav- Hing a population of 35,000, and {s fortified, the citadel crown- - an eminence. _ The Scutari most frequently referred to in dispatches, | » is the city in Asiatic Turkey on the Bosphorus,| posite Constantinople. This city is quite a large and pros-| ous place. It contains great granaries and is an important market. _ Located there also are many fine bazaars and baths, mili- barracks, and a seraglio of the sultan. The population| about 150,000.
