In his Physics Today paragraph (Walker 1991), Walker follows the quotation “You must continue with your investigation” (from doc. 75) with “we will send it to Wiedemann's Annalen” (from doc. 79), suggesting, no doubt unintentionally, that “it” refers to Marić's investigation (her ongoing doctoral research on heat conduction). However, the quotations refer to different works, and were written a month apart. The full context of the first quotation immediately above, from a letter dated October 3, 1900, is follows:

The results on capillarity, which I recently found in Zurich, seem to be totally new despite their simplicity. When we're back in Zurich, we shall seek to get empirical material on the subject through Kleiner. If a law of nature emerges from this, we will send it to Wiedemann's Annalen. (CPAE 1, Engl., doc. 79)
