140 EEPORT OF NATIONAL MUSEUM, 1890. 



ROUTINE WORK. 



During the year the collections were rearranged, with the object of 

 securing more space. The seals, copied from the originals owned by 

 the Misses Bruce aud Prof. O. 0. Marsh, of New Haven, referred to in 

 the last report, were labeled and placed in the exhibition cases. The 

 photogravures of the Gneco-Egyptian portraits and the copies of the 

 seals of Dr. Ward, referred to above, have been placed on exhibition. 



A complete series of the casts of seals is preserved in the study series. 



In addition to the persons mentioned above, the Museum is indebted 

 for cooperation and assistance to Mr. Henry Gillmau, United States 

 consul at Jerusalem, Mr. W. Max Muller, and Dr. F, 0. H. Wendel, of 

 New York.
