BULLETIN, ISTo. 19 



Approved for Publication, March 15, 1890. 



Bulletins are issued by the Survey from time to time as material for them accumulates. They are 



intended to give early announcement of work accomplished or information of importance obtained, 



and will in many cases anticipate the usual means of publication afforded by the Annual 



Reports. The pages will be numbered consecutively, and will be indexed when their 



number demands it, thus augmenting their value for preservation and reference.
