Just Arrived, per Queen op thh West, from London— TEN TONS DYNAMITE, DETONATORS, BATTERY, INSULATED COPPER WIRE, Etc., Eio., Etc. DYNAMITE is the Safest and Most Powerful Explosive in übb. THE SAFETY OF DYNAMITE DURING TRANSPORT AND STOItAGE. 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 the 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 182, par. 2979 Major Majendie, R.A., H.MS. Inspector of Gunpowder and Dynamite Factories, states, in bis evidence (page 18, par. 100), that the law relatiug 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-glycerine preparations from such unnecessary restrictions as the Nitroglycerine Act imposes upon them. Professor Abel, the Chemist to Her Maiesty's War Department, gives his experience that Nobel's dynamite is one of the safest, most powerful, and moat convenient explosive agents applicable to industrial purposes.— Blue Book, pages 56, 57. and 59.
