XL ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 
Wisconsin; and from Mr. H. W. Hakes, fragments of pottery 
from Broome County, New York. 
By purchase or part purchase the Bureau has obtained from 
Mr. J. A. MeNiel one hundred and seventy pieces of ancient 
pottery from Chiriqui, Panama, besides some very interesting 
objects of stone. From Mr. Ward Bachelor it has acquired a 
fine collection of earthen and stone objects from Mexico. From 
Dr. E. Boban a few fine samples of Mexican pottery were ob- 
tained. All these have been catalogued and turned over to 
the National Museum. 
Mr. L. B. Case, of Richmond, Indiana, has presented to the 
Bureau the records of the State Archeologic Association of In- 
diana, which fell into his hands as secretary at the discontin- 
uance of the society several years ago. 
Valuable photographs of archeologic subjects have been re- 
ceived from Prof. Anastasio Alfaro, secretary of the National 
Museum of Costa Rica; also, from Mr. C. F. Low, of Cinein- 
nati; from Mr. A. F. Sears, of Portland, Oregon; and from 
Mr. D.S. Sears, of Cuba, Llinois. 
Mr. Vicror MinpeLerr was engaged during the first two 
months of the fiscal year upon a report on the architecture of 
the Cibola and Tusayan groups of pueblos, in New Mexico 
and Arizona. Subsequent to his return from the field, on 
March 18, that report was resumed, but it was not completed 
at the end of the fiscal year. The additional data secured 
from the Tusayan district during the field season are being pre- 
pared for incorporation into the same report. 
Mr. Cosmos MINDELEFF was occupied during the early part 
of the year upon that portion of the report on pueblo archi- 
tecture which had been assigned to him. On _ his return 
from the field, on February 23, he resumed work upon that 
report, but it was suspended in order to take up the prepara- 
tion of an exhibit to be made by the Bureau at the Cincinnati 
Centennial Exposition. An exhibit to cover nearly 2,000 
square feet of floor space was prepared, but, as the space was 
limited, only the field work of the Bureau in one special region, 
viz, the pueblo country, was illustrated, though a small amount 
of other material was added for purposes of comparison. This 
work was not completed at the close of the fiseal year.
