The Majert Company claims that during nine monthsin batteries running on the lines of the Berlin Railway,the plates were charged and discharged 3200 times with-out showing the least disintegration. The Majert platesdescribed are used for the positive plate and are Planteformed. The negative plate is cast and pasted as in othersystems.
