    be heard at z very loudly but beating in the such a way as to render it impossible to discriminate one pitch from the other. The sound partook more of the nature of a rapid trill than a musical note.
    The shortness of the pencil P rendered it impossible to prevent the intermittent current from making its appearance. The experiment must be repeated with a more perfectly arranged apparatus.
    I am satisfied however from the above experiment that my theory is correct - that musical notes which conflict with one another when transmitted simultaneously by means of an intermittent will not interfere with one another when the undulatory current is employed.
