They have also been placed upon an open fire, when the dynamite burned slowly away without exploding.—Parliamentary report—Bine Book, page 179. Dynamite has been in a railway collision and, though tlio van and boxes containing it were' broken, no explosion took place.—Blue Boob, page 182, pnr. 2979 Major Majendie, 8.A., H.MS. Inspector of Gunpowder and Dynamite Factories, states, in his evidence (page 18, pnr. 100), that the law relating to dynamite is us nmoh too stringent as the gunpowder law is too lax; and (page 20, par. 115) that the time has come for relieving safe nitroglycerine preparations from such unnecessary restrictions as the Nitroglycerine Act imposes upon them.
