COMPILED DATA UNDER GREEN TABLE NUMBERS. 69 



TABLE II. Autopsies on dogs Continued. 



In this connection it may be of interest to note that out of 16 dyes 

 producing death when administered through the mouth to dogs, 7 

 were on the United States market in the summer of 1907. Their 

 Green Table numbers are as follows, the numbers in parentheses 

 indicating the number of makers or importers, out of a possible 12: 

 offering them: 55 (2) ; 86 (8) ; 95 (2) ; 428 (3) ; 451 (5) ; 601 (1) ; 650 (2).

That is, when these dyes were tried on dogs the observers reported 

 in certain specified cases, positively and definitely, the absence of any

It is stated of the following colors that they produced no bad effects 

 in certain specified cases: 4; 9; 65; 86; 105; 188; 197; 240; 457; 572;

 except albuminuria: 88,287. No bad effect except loss of weight: 

 12.5 per cent (17, 18, or 41). 



It is therefore true of all of these coal-tar dyes that there are condi-
