Langmuir suggested to the authors that if the mercury vapor stream were deflected and condensed a t a definite point below the jet and inside the condenser, any observed volume change should be diminished. They are indebted to him for the suggestion of sealing an additional water-cooled tube into the condenser to accomplish this purpose, as shown by the heavy butlined portion of Figure 1 .

Determined volumes of the system are better reproducible and the maximum deviation of the mean volume as the pressure is lowered to 0.01 mm. of mercury is less than 10 ml. Of further importance is the fact that the data a t three distillation rates practically coincide. fication definitely improved the reproducibility of calculated volumes a t various pressures without impairing the pumping performance. Furthermore, the measured volume was now insensitive to mercury distillation rates. I and I1 represent differences in calculated volumes as a function of gas pressure employing the conventional design of pump. Curve I is for the higher mercury distillation rate corresponding to 323 watts supplied to the electric resistance heater; and curve (1)
