First Catalogue of Radial Velocities 
The need of a catalogue containing stars for which Radial 
Velocities have been determined has been felt very often. 
The following catalogue does not claim to be complete, never- 
theless all publications which could contain radial velocities, 
present in the library of the Royal Observatory at the Cape 
of Good Hope have been searched through. After a few years 
we hope to publish another one more complete, after having 
received notes about observations or corrections to the given 
values. 
Ï take this opportunity of tending my sincere thanks to 
Mr. S. S. Hoven, His Majesty's Astronomer at the Cape of 
Good Hope, for his kindness of allowing me the use of the 
Library aforesaid. 
Arrangement of the Catalogue. 
Column 1. Star’s number in this catalogue. 
Column 2. Star’s number according to the Boss P. G. C. 
Column 3. Stars name, or catalogue with number. 
‘Column 4. R. A, and Decl. for 1900.0. 
Column 5. Magnitude, taken from the Harvard Rev. Phot. 
(Vol. 50). For stars not mentioned in that 
catalogue the magnitude indicated by the Rad. 
Vel. observer is given. 
Column 6. The stars total annual proper motion has been 
taken, for the Boss-stars out of that catalogue, 
for the other stars if possible out of the 
Cincinnati Publ. No. 18 part 4, otherwise the 
best available proper motion.
