It is a fair presumption that the modern develop-ments in the electric field, as generally understood,have occurred within the lifetime of the readers ofthis work. The achievements of engineers have pre-ceded theory, and to-day the latter is far in arrears,and seems likely to stay so. It is a peculiarity ofmankind that it is most strenuous in seeking an ex-planation of the strange and unfamiliar. We arewilling to spend a life, dependent in every physicalsense upon gravitation, without once seeking its for electricity, in its aspect of a new and. strangecreation of mans ingenuity, though in no way agreater mystery than gravitation, an explanation isrequired. To play a part in gratifying this desire is the ob-ject of the present work. A theory, which is far fromcomplete has been constructed by modern scientists,and may eventually acquire perfect
