In the XIXth century, of course, Walras was known to economists in the 
English speaking world. However, his own relationship with British 
economists began badly and deteriorated in the process of correspondence 
with A. Marshall, W. S. Jevons, F. Y. Edgeworth. They discussed the 
priority in the investigation of marginal utility, the equation of 
exchange, etc. None of the three British economists paid attention to 
Walrasian general equilibrium theory which was new to them. See _Willam 
Jaffe's Essay on Walras_ (1983), edited by D. A. Walker, esp. pp. 4-5 and 
25-27.
