Abstract
And from Hanlan's Crib to pumping well 237,000 00 4. The estimated cost of the tunnel scheme, as previously recom- mended, with an extension of pipe to the new intake, is 525,000 00 1 23250It must be clearly understood that any scheme involving a new conduit from the pumping station to Hanlan's Point or Hanlan's Crib will be incomplete in itself, and that further expenditures are necessary owing to the insufficient depth at which the existing 5-foot steel pipe has been laid through "the cut" across Toronto Island.The top of this pipe at one point lies at the level of low water in the lake, and for several hundreds of feet it is only six inches below the same level.It will therefore be seen that unless this defect is remedied, or some means are adopted towards augmenting the supply, the City is liable to be short of water at times when Lake Ontario may approach its lowest level, or if the consumption of water should increase.This pipe cannot now, while it is in use, be lowered without running the risk of damaging it seriously, and as the whole water supply of the City is at present drawn through it, a break would result in the serious contamination of the supply both by large quantities of sand and bay water.It appears, therefore, almost superfluous to emphasize the importance of providing, with the least possible delay, some means not only of conveying the lake water securely and uncontaminated across Toronto harbor, but also of insuring a full supply, which, under existing circumstances, cannot be relied upon at times when the lake may happen to fall to a low level.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
