In the great majority of cases, death was evidently due to the dimi- nution in the oxygen and increase in the carbonic acid, the proportions of these gases present in the jar when an ani

The mode of death of the animals was similar to that observed in slow asphyxia, and the results of careful post-mortem examination and microscopic investiga- tion do not indicate the effects of any organic poison.
The insertion of absorption tubes containing caustic alkalies between the bell jars, to absorb the carbonic acid, and of concentrated sulphuric acid, did not give results corresponding to those reported by Brown- S^quard and d'Arsonval.
