a HI — 
Taking the difference between the departures at 3^ and 4» as 
the amplitude of the disturbing wave, the range is 0.'4. It 
seems, looking at the positive value of the departure at 3n p, 
that the deflection of the needle has been an easterly one. 
This easterly deflection at Manila is remarkably opposite 
to the westerly one at Batavia; the stations being situated 
at opposite sides of the magnetic »quator; but it is to be 
remarked that the needle at Manila, so much nearer to the 
central line than Batavia, has suffered a deflection two times 
as small. 
Horizontal Intensity. 
The H residuals indeed exhibit a transition from positive 
to negative values at about the middle of the eclipse, but 
this probably is the consequence of the diurnal variation having 
been smaller that day than the normal. 
Vertical Intensity. 
In the contrary the Z residuals point to a decrease 
between 2^ and 6^ p, with a maximum of 5 y between 
3^ and 4^ p, which may possibly be considered as an effect 
of the eclipse. 
SUMMARY. 
Putting together the facts obtained in a tabular summary I 
think it best to separate results obtained for localities situated 
on or near the central line from those observed at stations 
at a considerable distance, though still within the belt of 
partial eclipse. 
The table has the same arrangement as Baver’s one 
(quoted on p. 217), only a third column, with the heading 
"during eclipse" has been inserted between the two con- 
taining the effect observed “before” and “after” the maximum 
phase.
