the gas. Theanalogy between a dilute solution of an electrolyteand gas exposed to Eontgen rays is complete overa wide range of phenomena. The fact that the passage of a current of elec-tricity through a gas destroys its conductivity ex-plains a very characteristic property of the con-duction of… … £ M.F.
