The destructor, ;is illustrated in Fig. 101, has been in satisfactory operation for some years. 

 Two old lire-tube boilers are Iniilt into one of the cells to give a supply of hot water 

 for cleaning the conservancy buckets. The draught in this cell is not very satisfactory, 

 as the tubes of th(! boilers quickly lieconie choked, but it is sufficiently good to give a 

 supply of hot water, and the second cell, connected directly with the chinniey flue, has 

 a good draught, and is capable of dealing with the balance of the refuse.
