They have also been placed upon an -open fire, when the dynamite ourned slowly, away without exploding.—Parll mentary report—Blue Book, Dynamite has been in a railway collision, and, though the van and boxes containing it were broken, no explosion took place.—Blue Book, page 182, par. 2979. \ • > ' : Maior Maiendia, R.A., H.Ms. Inspector of Gunpowder and Dynamite Factories, states, in his evidence (page 18, par. 100), that the lew relating to dynamite is as much too stringent as the gunpowder law is too lax; and (page 20, par 115) that the time has come for relieving safenitro-glycerine preparations from:such unnecessary restrictions as the nitro-glycerine Act mposea upon them. Professor Abel, the Chemist to Her Majesty's War Department, gives his experience that Nobel's dynamite is one of the eafeßt, moat powerful, and most convenient explosive agents applicable to industrial purposes.—Blue Book, pages 56,57, and 69, «- Agents: .; , : .' ■ , E. <P O R T E R & CO., QUEEN STREET.
