A description of the disease under the influence of inhalation of gases during a stay in the Chambot pit is given, with a predominance of phenomena from the neuropsychic sphere. After an unconscious state, the patient experienced extreme depression, with the impossibility of walking without outside help. The latter is probably the result of paralytic phenomena. In this case, the author explains the disease by poisoning with coal gas in connection with other gases (ammonia, etc.).
