SMOKE NUISANCES.
The number of complaints of smoke nuisance have considerably
increased during the year 1900. Many cases of
nuisance have been satisfactorily and permanently abated, and
others are still under strict observation.
TRADE NUISANCES, ETC.
During the year several complaints of trade nuisances have
been received. These have each been exhaustively dealt with.
Smells alleged to come from the Regent's Canal were complained
of from various sources, and the necessary investigations
covered a period of some weeks.
Appended is a statement of that part of my work which
admits of tabulation.
