cial conditions OF the last few months
Millions were loaned approximately at !
per cent In midsummer and call money

The exceedingly low rate was about as

THE SMOKE
NUISANCE

The quarterly report OF the supervising
engineer under the Smoke act was sub
mitted today to the board Of aldermen
at It's meeting at p. m
In part Horace f.. Chadwick says:
In submitting this seventh quarterly re-
port the supervising engineer under the
Smoke act desires TO say that during the
past quarter many complaints were made
concerning chimneys which while not al
ways exceeding the limit permitted by
law for black smoke. were at times very
offensive. These chmneys were located
In different parts OF the city. and tie
ones. which were most obnoxious 10 oc-
cupants of adjacent buildings, were en-
bakeries.
The practice OF preparing the ovens
with wood fires produced a considera BILE
proportion OF the smoke, and when the
bakers were informed OF the conditions
by the supervising engineer measures
were at once taken to abate the smoke
In most cases they were able to re-
duce the issue OF smoke, and carrying
the chimneys higher also Effected noti-
ceable Improvement by delivering the
smoke above the buildings 1t then was
blown away without entering the
windows.
Instructions against the burning of ac-
cumulations OF debris also were followed.
The bakeries were operated mostly by
Italians who the inspector Is pleased TO
report. were desirous OF complying with
the law, when the conditions were OK
planned to them. and the probability IS
that these shops i'm the future will cause
little or no annoyance.
