NEW USE FOR COAL Dus4.
Somebody Apparently Selling II Widely
Ia Place of Antimony.

A rural chemist has accidentally ais-
covered a curious case Of adultetation.
or, more accurately. OF substitution In
the matter OF a drug commonly sold In
pharmacies, rural and urban. The
drug is the tri-sulphide OF antlmony,
commonly known as black antimony.
The chemist In analysing a patent
remedy discovered that the Ingredients
nearly correspondent with those In a
formula furnished by the Agricultural
department but that coal dust had
been substituted for black antlmony.
Struck with this discovery, the chemist
obtained twelve samples Of black anti
mony, most of them from druggists
In his own nsighborhood. but one from
New York, Of these. only one was
really black antimony; the others were
coal dust, coal dust and chalk or coal
dust and sand. There Is no reason
to suppose that the druggists knew Of
the substitution, for there would be
little profit in the deception unless 1t
were practiced on a large scale; but It
seems plain that some manufacturing
chemist Is selling . worthless snbsti-
tute for black anthony. Indeed the
substitute may be sent out from more
than one factory, for while the dozen
samples tested came from the eastern
coast, the remedy in which the sub
stitution was originally detected came
from the west. The New York drug
gist who sold a sample OF the substi-
tute does business In a fashionable
quarter where there is a considerable
demand fot black antimony on the part
of grooms and coachmen, who use 1t
in the preparation Of condition pow
ders for horses. Two other druggists
