| Title | Copy letter from Archibald Geikie, to Professor Eduard Suess, [Fellow of the Royal Society] |
| Date | 23 March 1905 |
| Description | Encloses an official letter [not enclosed]. From this, and the copy of the letter from the Royal Society to the Foreign Office dated 1 March, Geikie hopes Suess will realize how the matters of the Seismological organization stand in Britain. Matters have been complicated by the fact that they have had for many years a world wide organization under the charge or John Milne, and there has been a strong feeling that this organization has a prior claim on resources. The recommendations of the Society are a compromise. The Government has not yet intimated its decision. |
