9. Publications of the United States Naval Observatory. Second 

 Series, Vol. I, pp. cvii. 402. Washington, 1901. — The second series 

 of the U. S. Naval Observatory publications is commenced with 

 the present volume. With it the plan of publication will be 

 different from that which has been in force hitherto, since, in the 

 place of annual volumes, it is proposed to issue volumes at suitable 

 intervals depending upon the kind and amount of material availa- 

 ble. We have here all the transit circle observations of the sun, 

 moon, planets, and miscellaneous stars made from 1894 to 1899, 

 except those of the zone — 13° 50' to — 18° 10'. The observa- 

 tions were made under the direction of Prof. W. Harkness until 

 his retirement as Director in December, 1899. Prof. A. N". Skinner 

 was in charge of the transit circle during this period ; the Director- 

 ship of the Observatory is now under the charge of Prof. S. J. 

 Brown.
