Be it known that I, Josnrir Hunn'neenn, of the city and county of .San Francisco, State ofCaliments in Explosive Oompoundsfand I do hereby declare that the following description gives a full and clear statement oft-he names and quantities of the ingredicnts'used, with full directions for making and using the same. V i 7 My invention relates to certain dilueuts or --=.ng|-e-, dients which I employ for mixing with and incorpo be manntacturedby the combination of chlorate of potash with sulphur, sugar, phosphorus, prussiate of eter, with the addition of In this compound ihur oxides are used, one or more of them can be dispensed with, if desired; and
