    with Z pole icnreased in size. Reddish or brownish appearance. Looks like red oxide upon it - certainly not metallic copper deposits above.

  1. Liquid Motion A curious motion of the liquid in the two water-cups or cells see Fig 4. WW'- vibratory wires. C,Z, the ends of wires connected with the C and Z poles of the battery.
    An extremely rapid right-handed rotation of particles floating at a was observed. This spot a seemed to be the centre of a right handed rotatory movement of the liquid. Particles floating at b shot with extreme velocity towards C. They then returned slowly along d e until they again were repelled at b. Particles floating at a turned revolved round very rapidly without changing their place otherwise. Particles floating within the spaces fgh experienced a left-handed rotatory movement.
    Similar effects were produced in the other water cell, but from the way in which the cells were arranged it was difficult to observe accurately the motion of the moving particles.
