esented. Bythe inductive influence of B, the - electricity of A is drawn to thesurface, n, while the + escapes by y. But this — electricity at nattracts the + of B largely to the surface m and holds it there ashound electricity, thus increasing the electrical density at that sur-face.

In this way, a largequantity of + electricity may be accumulated at m and a large quantity of -— at n.This accumulation maythus go on until thepotential at the sur-face, p, is equal to thatof the machine, as itwas when A was ab-sent.…
