The apparatus consisted of a brass box (fig. 1) in the centre of oneside of which was a circular hole 3*5 cm. in diameter. Inside the box anddirectly opposite this hole were placed a ring A of copper wire gauze and acircular lead plate B 2 mm. thick, each larger in diameter than the hole in 446 Mr. P. D. limes.

When the two were finally in position they were exactly parallel and1 cm. apart The gauze was insulated on an ebonite block D fixed to thebottom, and to it was attached a wire passing through a sulphur plug in oneside of the box and leading to the accumulators. The lead plate was fastenedat its centre to the end of a thin rod C, which passed out by the back of the. Fig.
