Thus Engelmann, in 1872, concluded that the usual effect of indirect excitation is a ' negative varia- tion' of the normal (ingoing) current Hermann, in 1878, gives the usual and principal effect as being a 'positive variation' of the normal current. The two accounts are summarised in the following diagram, and their
