Abstract
As described in the Journal for Applied Chemistry (Berlin, Leipzig, No. 32, 1924), the present writer succeeded in 1922 in observing the transmutation of mercury into other elements, when submitted to the effect of a strong electric discharge. This discovery was described in a manuscript deposited under G 56485 IV/12 h on May 3, 1922, in the German Government Patent Office, where it may be seen by anybody. It is therefore incorrect to state that Miethe first observed the transmutation of mercury.
