During the month twenty-seven ap.
plications to build have been received
and twenty of them have been APPROX
ed. have also approved fifteen per-
mits applied for previous to May I.
Six applications are in the hands OF
the Survey Department and am hold
ing three. one because the grade of the
lot Is too low. and the other two be-
cause there is not sufficient space be-
tween the main buildings and the
kitchens, closets and washroofs. Six
builders without permits have been
notified to obtain the same and have
done so.
Seven Cesspools have been located
during the month"; all outside the sewer
limits.
Ten buildings have been altered or
removed so as to conform to the sani-
tary regulations of the Board of Health.

the month, los of which were examina-
! tions of lots and new buildings.

have been applied for and ten have
been approved and issued. Six are held
until sanitary improvements have been
made. or the certificates applied for
prior to May |. three have been issued
and seven are still held. The number
of adults which can by law be lodged
in these buildings licensed Is 1893.
/ Six formal complaints have been
filed and the nuisances in four cases
have been abated The other two com
plants were trivial and the nuisance
did not exist.
! Five 4S-hour notices have been serv-
ed and in each case the recipient of the
notice abated the nuisance without
prosecution of the case.
Three special reports have been made
/, during the month.
Three arrests and prosecutions have
been made during the month. The first
man paid Sc and costs. the second 81
and costs and the third $40 and costs.
! A considerable portion OF my time
during the month has been spent with
the new inspectors in going over their
districts with them and getting them
started in their work. That they have
been doing good and effective work Is
shown by the large numbers of kicks
which have daily been registered
against their orders. The city Is now
well covered by the inspectors and the
