The 'Murder' data is annotated, in certain years, to suggest that it is exclusive of cases, in which the victim was an 'Infant' (i.e. a child, aged less than one year); whereas in other years, it is not.
I believe that it is clearly the case, however, that the annotation should apply to each of the years under consideration (1883-1893).
Consider, for example, the following:
In Accordance with the Fifty First Annual Report of the Registrar-General of Births, Deaths, and Marriages in England, 1888:

"Crime during the year has shown a decided tendency to increase. This fact may be accounted for, to a certain extent, by circumstances which affected the administration of the Force in a peculiar manner at different periods of the year. The agitation which centered in Trafalgar Square, and the murders in Whitechapel, necessitated the concentration in particular localities of large bodies of police, and such an increase of force in one quarter of the Metropolis, it must be remembered, is only procurable by diminishing the number of men ordinarily employed in other divisions. In the present state of the force increase of protection in the East End means diminished numbers of police in other quarters, and so long as the available force is hardly sufficient, as it is just now, for the performance of the ordinary and every day duties of the Police, any additional drain on its resources leads to diminished protection against, and consequent increase of, crime. There has been no relaxation of effort on the part of the Police to cope with crime; the fact is that the Force is overworked, and under such circumstances crime cannot be met or coped with in a satisfactory and efficient manner. The statistics of crime will be found in the tables attached. I need not do more than merely allude to the extraordinary series of murders which occurred in Whitechapel, which gave rise to the greatest excitement in London. I regret to say that in spite of most strenuous efforts on the part of the Police, the criminal has up till now remained undiscovered." [sic]

The Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis
