DYNAMITE is the Safest and Most Powerful ' xplosive in use. The Safety of Dynamite During Transport and Stoeage. Extracts from the Official evidence given before the House of Commons Select Committee on Explosive Substances—Parliamentary Session of 1874, London, Boxes filled with dynamite have been thrown from a great height and found to sustain any amount of shock without exploding. They have also been placed upon an open fire, when he dynamite burned slowly away without exploding.—Parliamentary report—Blue Book; page 179._ Dynamite has been in a railway collision, and, though the van and boxes containing it were broken, no explosion took place,—Blue Book, page>lß2, par. 2979. Major Majendie, R.A., EM's. Inspector of Gunpowder and Dynamite Factories, states, in his evidence (page 18,_ par, 100), that the law 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 safe nitro-glyceiine preparations from such unnecessary restrictions ?»the Nitro-glycerine Act imposes upon them. Professor Abel, the Chemist to Her Majesty's i War Department, gives his experience that i Nobel's dynamite is one of the safest, most ' powerful, and most convenient explosive agents ' applicable to industrial purposes,—Blue 'Book, i pages 56,57, and 59, " ■, Agents : i E.
