shown by visit to the filter fields today.
Not that the corporations are TO blame,
for they have complied with conditions
imposed. but the fiowage from a trunk
sewer. fully 40 inches In diameter, is
something surprising and nauseating
This discharge does not reach the filter
beds at ali, but passes one side and emp
ties when running In ordinary form, as u
was today, from ten 10 70 gallons min
ute, TO say nothing of offal and refuse of
every kind. And from the character of
the outpour II Was evidently sewage from
house, workshop and factory.
Inspector Whitley escorted a represen-
tative Of The News and other members
of the press over the territpry today, and
IL IL may so be characterized the trunk

cessfully, while only three of the l3 filter
beds were In use. and on two others there
was a shadow of suspicion.

From few small earthen pipes at the
base OF three filter beds there was trick
ling a stream diminutive, compared with
the rushing and unfiltered discharge from
the trunk sewer.
From the direction OF Newell avenue
on the north and running down a steep
decivity Is sewer pipe less than foot
In diameter, but connecting with the main
sewer.
IL is said that during the winter this
leaked so badly as to ooze out on the
ground and today the vicinity presents
an unhealthy sight, to say nothing of
the stencil that fills the nostrils.
Then, too. an attempt, and apparently
futile at that, was made 10 improve the
