I. Electrification of air and other gases by bubbling through water and other liquids

Abstract 1. At the meeting of the British Association in Oxford in August, 1894, a communication was given to section A, entitled “Preliminary Experiments to find if Subtraction of Water from Air Electrifies it.“ These experiments were performed during July of 1894, and were a continuation of experiments which were commenced in the Physical Laboratory of the University of Glasgow in December of 1868 with the same object, but which were then, for various reasons, discontinued before any decisive result had been obtained.
