Abstract
To test further the results obtained by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey magnetic parties during the total solar eclipse of May 28, 1900, regarding a slight magnetic effect that may be attributable directly to some change produced in the electrification of the upper atmospheric strata by the abstraction of the sun's rays due to the interposition of the moon between the sun and the earth, an appeal was made for international cooperation in magnetic and allied observations during the recent total solar eclipse.
