  The principal figures are those of the cases, fatal and non-fatal;
  the small figures relate to fatal cases only.

  For the sake of completeness the figures for the years 1910 and 1911
  are given below. The grand totals are comparable with those for each
  of the years 1900 to 1909, but not the total for all of the several
  groups of industries. Thus, the name of heading No. 7 is altered to
  “Tinning of metals,” and No. 12 to “Vitreous enamelling,” because
  of regulations widening their scope, and now including cases which
  previously figured in No. 18, “Other industries.”
