corresponding to 13°83 per cent § and 4612 per cent CL. 
Theory demands 14:00 per cent § and 46°61 per cent Cl.

On evaporation broad tabular crystals are obtained. In the

__ The crystals are therefore the ammonium salt of the tti- 
chlormethyl-sulphurous acid and their formation can be eX- 
pressed by the following equation :
