Hinchman & Grylls. engineers. was put
on the stand at the morning session
to tell Of the various devices resort
ed to by the company to put an end
to the smoke nuisance at Its Atwater
St power house, of which none had
proven effective. Mr.. Hinchman said
that the principal objection to the In
stallation OF a storage battery system
like the one established not long ago
out Woodward-ave., was its tremend-
Gus cost. He estimated that 1t would
cost 100000 to install storage bat
terry systems OF sufficient capacity to
take care OF the so-called peak" loads.
The witness declared that the ID. u.
r. had complied with the ordinance
as far as It Is possible for it to do
SO without the use Of storage batteries.
The complaint is made by Smoke
Inspector Fairgrieve at the instance
OF several Jefferson-ave. residents, who
complain that the smoke which is
sues from the power house at Dubois
