92 THE PHOTOGRAPHIC NEWS. [FEBEVARY 6, 1885. for us, having told me he had been canvassing for a firm in London, and that he had come to live in Sheffield, and wished to be employed. We did so, giving him a full plate portrait framed, a few card specimens, and a cheque book, stating particulars, price, and the deposit he was to receive, viz., full-plate portrait framed, and twelve cards, for 12s. 6d., and that he was not to receive more than 2s. on account of each order. This is the way he did business. Instead of showing our full-plate specimen, he must have left that at home, and canvassed with an oil-painted one very much larger, such as we charge 35s. for, telling them it was only for one month. Of course, he must soon have cleaned out all his cheques. But I need not tell you we have not seen him since. The worst of it is, he has got portraits of deceased people to copy, which cannot be replaced. At the address he gave they know nothing of him. Thinking, perhaps, you would kindly notice this in your next, for the benefit of the trade, I am, yours truly, W. H. Dodds. 6b, Norfolk Roto, Sheffield, January 28th, [Strange as it may appear, there are many photographers who actually constitute persons—of whom they have no konwledge, or concerning whom they have made no enquiries, to act as their representatives in business matters. As the above is a type of many letters which we receive, it is inserted, and it should serve to indicate to photographers the need of ordinary caution in appointing agents. It is difficult to estimate the extent of liabilities which may be incurred in this way.—En. P. N.J Aroceedings of Socteties. London and PROVINCIAL Photographic Association. A meeting of this Society was held on Thursday, the 29th ult., Mr. A. Haddon in the chan-. Au announcement was made relating to the forthcoming exhibition at Dundee, Feb., 1886. The Chairman re-opened the discussion on positive im ages shown by Mr. Trinks at the previous meeting; opinions differed as to whether an insoluble layer of gelatine was present or not. Mr. L. WARNERKE held that it was, and instanced his patented process ; and Mr. Henderson considered the deposit to consist of metallic silver, coarse particles of bromide having precipitated during setting. The discussion then turned on the value of substratums. Mr. WARNERKE had noted a peculiar kind of spot always in the same position on certain plates. No indication of the cause could be perceived when the plate was re-polished. Upon taking a cast of the plate in Spence’s metal, indentations were readily observed. A substratum of insoluble gelatine effectually pre vented the re-appearance of the spots complained of. Mr. A. Mackie had also noticed similar spots appearing in the same plate on each successive coating. Mr. W. Cobb found the spots would appear with or without a substratum. Mr. J. H. Trinks enquired the best method of converting the image on a bromide plate into chloride. Mr. F. W. Hart suggested soaking the plate in chlorine water. Mr. Trinks then read a description of an etching process pub lished by H. W. Vogel (Year-Book, p. 113), wherein the image was converted into chloride and transferred to a copper plate. The CHAIRMAX pointed out how reduction of silver would take place through each point of the image becoming an independent chloride of silver battery, and by this means an.etching would result. Mr. D. HUBERT read a communication from Dr. Liesegang in reference to the collodio-chloride process, in which he stated that he could get any colour from deep chestnut-brown to blue black with the ordinary gold toning bath ; but he preferred slightly toning with gold and finishing in a hypo and gold bath combined. He also found by that means he could tone from three to five times the number of prints the same amount of gold would tone in his sulpho-cyanide bath. Mr. A. L. Henderson thought that method of toning ordinary silver prints might give more permanence. Mr. W. E. DEBEXHAM said the method spoken of by Dr. Liese gang was not uncommon—he had often employed it—and Dr. Liesegang's objection to extra gold with sulpho-cyanide was really an advantage. Mr. W. B. B. Wellington passed round some admirable examples of rapidrrinting on paper made according to his pub lished formula on page 36 of the PHOTOGRAPHIC News (present volume) and toned with the ammonium thio-cyanate bath re commended by Mr. Ashman on page 43 of the current Year- Book. He found toning much easier by this means, and the prints retained their colour when dry. The Chairman said he could thoroughly endorse all Mr. Wellington had said regarding that method of toning, and handed round prints on Marion’s paper, one of which he had thrown away as useless, but had afterwards obtained a good colour through treating it with this bath. He also passed round prints made by Morgan and Kidd on their new rapid paper, and announced that those gentlemen would give a demonstration of their method of printing on the 19th inst. Mr. C. J. Collins was elected a member of the Society. Glasgow Photographic Association. A meeting was held in the Religious Institution Rooms on Thurday, the 22nd ult., Mr. A. Robertson in the chair. The question-box contained an enquiry which led to a com mittee being appointed to make arrangements for the annual supper. The routine business having been finished, Mr. Goodall gave his paper on “ Printing on Gelatino-Chloride Paper,” which was illustrated by experiments. Mr. Lang said he had been using a new developer for prints— namely, tartrate of iron, made by dissolving ferrous hydrate in tartaric acid; he developed some prints before the meeting with satisfactory results. Mr. Paton exhibited some very fine prints done on “ Alpha ” paper. Mr. Urie, Jun., showed some which he had printed by means of a machine driven with clockwork ; they were very uniform. The Chairman intimated that the next meeting would be a lantern night, and requested members to bring their transparen cies with them. Liverpool AMATEUR Photographic Association. The ordinary meeting of this Society was held at the Free Library, on Thursday, the 29th ult., Dr. Kenyon, President, in the chair. The Secretary having read the minutes of the annual meeting (which were duly confirmed), vacated his post, expressing his regret at giving up duties which, though onerous, had been very pleasant. The Chairman, after gracefully acknowledging the way in which the kindly co-operation of the officers and members of the Society had lightened his duties, withdrew in favour of Mr. J. H. Day, the President for 1885. The Rev. T. B. Banner then, in the course of an address to the Rev. H. J. Palmer, on behalf of the Society, said, he was to ask Mr. Palmer to accept a slight token of the members’ esteem and goodwill. They regretted very much losing their Secretary, who for many years had given to the Society the energetic labours not only of an ardent and able photographer, but of a kind-hearted gentleman. It was largely owing to him that the Liverpool Association held, at the present moment, a position in ferior to none in the photographic world. For reasons such as these their feelings must be those of sorrow at the loss of so able a helper. But, on the other hand, they could not but rejoice at the cause of Mr. Palmer’s removal from Liverpool. Without entering upon political questions, they would all agree in praising the Premier for appointing to a large and important living one who would devote himself earnestly to the great work before him. Mr. Banner then asked Mr. Palmer to accept from the Society a M‘Kellen’s treble patent camera, 9 by 7, with an illuminated ad dress, stating that this token of esteem was not given by any section of the Association, but was an expression of warm ap preciation of his services on the part of all the members; and con cluded by reading the address. Mr. J. H. T. Ellerbeck, after referring to the difficulty of expressing adequately the Society’s appreciation of Mr. Palmer’s services, minutely explained the working of the camera, pointing out its excellent workmanship, and the able manner in which utility, convenience, and portability had been combined.
