SUMMER FLUSHING OF COURTS.
The usual flushing of courts and alleys in the more thickly-populated and
poorer parts of the City was carried out as usual during the summer months
under the directions of the Superintendent of Cleansing.
The main streets and thoroughfares were also regularly and frequently
washed, and your Engineer informs me that in the above services no less than
50,238,433 gallons of water were used. Disinfectants were also freely
applied where necessary.
In the subjoined lists the places marked * * * were flushed every twentyfour
hours, those marked * * twice a week, and those marked * once a week.
