The Fourth Series of the Royal Society's Catalogue of Scientific Papers, of 

 which this is the first volume, comprises the titles of papers published or read 

 during the period 1884 to 1900, and concludes the work undertaken by the Royal 

 Society. The Catalogue thus completed will contain titles of papers for the whole 

 of the nineteenth century. The continuation of the work is now in the hands of 

 the authorities of the International Catalogue of Scientific Literature, which deals 

 with the titles and subjects of papers published after the end of the year 1900. 



Volumes XIV. — XXI. [In preparation 



SUBJECT INDEX 



Arranged for a Committee of the Koyal Society under the Superintendence of 

 HERBERT M c LEOD, LL.D., F.R.S., Director of the Catalogue. 



WHEN the plan for a Catalogue of Scientific Papers was drawn up in 1857 

 by the Royal Society, it was also contemplated that a Subject Index to 

 the papers should be made. During the compilation of the well known twelve 

 volumes of the Catalogue of Authors (1800 — 1883) much material was collected 

 for the Subject Index by the Committee of the Society which had charge of the 

 work, but nothing was printed. 



In 1898 it was determined to undertake the continuation for the period 1884 — 

 1900, and at the same time to prepare material for a Subject Index for these last 

 seventeen years of the century. It was afterwards decided that one Index should 

 be made to the papers of the whole of the Nineteenth Century ; and to bring this 

 Index into relation with the International Catalogue of Scientific Literature, which 

 deals with publications subsequent to 1900, the Index was to be arranged in 

 accordance with the schedules of the different sciences which form the basis of the 

 International Catalogue.
