CADY AND MCFARLAND.| Composition of Natural Gas. 249 
Francis C. Phillips, in his paper on ‘‘Composition of Natural 
Gas,’’!41 gives an analysis of gas from Cleveland, Ohio:

The composition by weight of the paraffins was as follows: Carbon, 
76.40; hydrogen, 23.60. 
Olefins and carbon monoxid also tested for with negative results. 
The only Ohio gas which we have had an opportunity to ex- 
amine is that from Butler, in Richland county, south of Mans- 
field. (See table 27 of analyses, p. 270.) The gas is of good 
quality but seems to differ somewhat from the analyses pub- 
lished for other Ohio gases. This is quite to be expected be- 
cause of its occurrence at some distance from those supplies. 
INDIANA GASES. 
Analyses by Prof. C. C. Howard, of Starling Medical Col- 
lege, Columbus, Ohio, in July, 1887,!42 show the composition of 
gas from four sources in the Trenton limestone:
