The value of the direct method of measuring ionic velocities has been seriously diminished in the past by the necessity of using gelatine solutions in the measuring apparatus, and by the restriction of the method to more concentrated solutions. The authors have succeeded in devising an apparatus in which it is possible to compare and measure the velocities of the ions of a given salt without using gelatine or other partitions during the actual experiment; and they have also succeeded in extending the method to the measurement of dilute solutions.
