jacket WVWWW, through which a rapid streanr of tap water was always kept
flowing when the apparatus was in use. The water was made to flow in a spiral
path round the solenoid by means of a spiral partition inside the jacket.
The solenoid was wound on a brass bobbin in two sections, and the windings wrere
carefully insulated from the bobbin. A current of 15a5nmpBres could be passed for
some time through the -solenoid, using a P.D. of about 50 volts, without undue
heating.
The cylinder was driven by a leather belt 2 centims. wide and 0.': centim. thick,
with a very well made splice. The belt was driven by a half horse-power continuous,
current motor which ran at about 1450 revolutions per minute with 50 volts. Three
driving pulleys were used, 10 inches, 5 inches, and 2? inches respectively in diametelr.
The pulley on the cylinder shaft was 1-- inches in diameter, so that speeds of about
11,600, 5800 and 2900 revolutions per minute could be obtained.

The spee(l counter was supported on a steel rod, so that it could be slipped up and
(lown into position, and oil was suppliedl to the screw thread through a pipe leading
to the oil reservoir. The number registered by the revolution counter in about
2 minutes was usually taken when determining the speed. It was found that the
speed observed agreed very nearly with that de(duced :fromlthe speed of the motor
and size of the pulleys, and also that the speed rem-ained very constant for long
intervals of time.

The motorand solenoid were run fiom two differenltsets of cells, so that varyilngthe
current in the solenoid did not affect the voltage on the motor. This latter voltage
was always indicated by a Weston -voltmeter,so that if any change in it occurred, it
was at once known that something was wrong. The current through the solenoid
was measured by a very good Weston ammeter, which read from 0 to 20 amperes,

of an incandescent

The image was - millim. wide and perfectly sharply delined. Its
position could be easily read to - millim. The loss of charge by the needle t:hrough
the surrounding air and the quartz fibre diminished the sensibility of the electrome,ter for potential difference about 50 per cent. in 24 hours. The needle was
usually charged uip to a potential of 40 volts, at whichl potential the sensibility for
quantity of electricity was a nlaximurm.
During the course of a series of measurements the sensibility of the electrometer,
for quantity of electricity, was mleasure(d from time to timrie,but the variatiolns were
inappreciable, owing to the very slow rate at which the sensibility of the electrometer, for quanltity, varied with the potential of the needle whllen the sensibility foil

One pai,;rof the quadrants was always connected to the case and to earth, while
the other pair was connected, by a wire about 2 feet long, to the brush which made
contact with the outside coating of the ebolite cylindere. This wire was completely
enclosed in metal tubes, which, together
of the solenoid and the inner coating of the ebonite cylinder, formed a complete
metal:lic screenl, all conllected together and to earth, surrounding the insulated parts
of the apparatus. Outside electric disturbances had no effect whatever on the
electrometer needle. For example, reversing the current through the solenoid was
repeatedly proved to produce no deflection of the electrometer needle when the
cylinder was not rotating. Also running the motor had no effect on the electrometer.

desired to conn:ect the insulated parts of the apparatus to the metallic screen
surrounding them. This rod was soldered to a wire spring, the other end of which
was soldered to the tube containing the wire WW.
The larger plate of the condenser was coinnected with a colmmutator, by means of

of the electrometer was then observed, and, if it remained steady, a current was passed
through the solenoid and the resulting deflection noted. The current was then
reversed several times and the corresponding deflections measured. The rate of
revolution was measured again and then the motor stopped and the sensibility of the
electrometer for quantity tested.
The difficulty in making these observations was that the index of the electrometer
often did not rermain steady, but wandered about in a more or less irregular manner.
The adoption of the water-jacket effected a great improvenment in this respect, but
the chief point to be attended to in order to get the iindex steady was found to be
the adjustment of the sliding contacts. In the first place it was found necessary to
have the surfaces on -which the brushes pressed turned true very carefully, and the
bearings adjusted, so that there was no shaking ;when running. lThe trueness of
these surfaces was tested as follows: the end of the lever attached to the rod
carrying one of the brushes was observed with a low-power microscope and the
cylinder slowly rotated. If the surface was not true or the bearings loose, the lever
moved up and down. The bearings were adjusted and the cylinder repeatedly
re-turned until the levers remained steady on rotaPting slowly.
Another thing which reruiredircarefil adjustment was the pressure of the brushes
on the moving surfaces. If the pressure was too great the surfaces got hot and a
pyroelectric effect was produced which caused a continual drift of the electrometer
index. In the earlier experiments the outside surface of the ebonite was coated with
graphite to form a conducting coating. But after running a few minutes the graphite
got rubbed off and the ebonite under the brush caught fire. A metallic coating
therefore had to be used to conduct away the lheat generat;ed by the friction.
If the brushes were not sufficiently tightly pressed down the index also drifted
continually, but in the opposite direction to the drift which appeared to be due to
heating. The drift, when the brushes were not sufficiently tightly pressed down,
was especially rapid when the surfaces were not true or the bearings loose. The
cause of this drift is not certain, but it seems probable that it was due to the brush
jumping on and off the surface and to particles of matter being torn off at each

putting oil on the brushes, which was thrown ofr by the centrifugal force and caused
a very rapid drift in the sanme direction as that obtained when the brus1hesw-ere not
pressed down enough. By carefully adjusting the bearings and brushes the index
was got to remlain very fairly steady onl a numnber of' occasions
recorded below were obtain:ed. The pressure of the brushles was adjusted by hangling
snmlnllweights on the levers.
If' the index was drifting slowly at a uniform r.ate, then measureiments could still
be made by taking the deflection first in one direction and then in the other, and
taking -the mean of the two as being the true deflectiotn. Measurements got in tlhis
way agreed with those obtainled when tlhe i-ndex was steady, but the measuremlients
giveIn in the table below were obtained with the index very nearly steady, so that the
deflections were nearly the same in either direction.
For exaimple, on one occasion a current of 7?5 amperes otn reversing gave a deflection
of 13 8 millims. one way and 13'0 millims. the other way. The index then began to
drift and the deflections became 25 0 millins. onie way and 2'5 mil.limrs.th1eother way.
The meani of the first pair is 13 4 millitms. and that oS the second patir 13.7 -millirns.
On several occasions the index remained almost steady for so:mtemnilnultesanld it vas
verified very carefully that the deflection oii reversilng the curreint was a permanlent
one and not merely a throw. The variation of the scale reading with the time on olne
occasion is shown in fig. 5. The magnetic field was put on at A, reversed at B and C,

charging the inside coating and reading the electromneter deflection. This is due to
t,he leaking out of residual charge from the ebonite. In the experiments on the

that tlhe specific inductive capacity obtained corresponds to a time of discharge equal

fairly constant and was about 15 seconds.

The lquantity which lhas been deternmined:l
experimentally is the charge which, when
given to the outside coatting, will produce a deflection- equal to that observed on
reversing the miagnetic field. Now, if both the brushes were connected to earth, the
charge induced on the outsi(de coating -would be equal and opposite to this charge which
has been (letermined. This follows at once from the equation EC - V (C + C')

Consequently the outside surface of the cylinder had a

Thus the total char-ge onl the outside coating was 1 5 1L9X 10 7 Cn, antidthis should
be equal to Q, lwich was found experimentally to be 15'35 X .10-T7C(1 electrostatic

that found within the limits of experimental error. The difference between the
effect calculated and the mean effect found is only I per cent. Subtracting Q" and Q"'
from the effect found we get 12-74 X 10-7 Cn electrostatic unit, which may be
regarded as the experimental value of the effect due to the ebonite alone. The
corrections Q" and Q"' though somewhat large are not open to any doubt, because
