Found 1887. | Powder [lill Creek, Crab Orchard Mts., Tenn- 
essee. (Identical with Rockwood.) 
336 Irregular fragment, one surface polished. Metallic 
grains small and evenly distributed. CK) 80.4 
Found 1888. | Llano del Inca, Desert of Atacama, So. America. 
188 *Dark-brown mass, with natural and polished sur- 
faces. Metallic grains appear only on one edge. 38 
189 Complete individual, intersected by the cracks so 
characteristic of this meteorite. A few large grains 
of olivine are enclosed in cavities on the surface. 
(W.) 54.5 
190 Thick slab, polished on two surfaces. No metallic 
grains are visible. (W.) 148 . 
Found 1888.| Dona Inez, Desert of Atacama, So. America. 
191 Thin slab, showing natural and etched surfaces. 
The stony matter, dark-brown in color, largely 
predominates. One nodule of iron about the 
size of a pea, shows delicate W. f. (W.) 48.5 
192 *Hemispheroidal mass, one surface polished. The 
peculiar cracked surface characteristic of these 
meteorites is well exhibited. (W.) 103 
193 Complete individual, described by Howell as look- 
ing like ‘‘a lump of dried, red mud cracked by 
shrinkage and covered with spots of green mould 
(nickel) in places.”’ (W.) 74] 
194 Similar to No. 192, but larger. (W ) 245 
Found 1890. | Kiowa County, (Brenham Township), Kansas. 
195 One-half of a complete individual, one surface pol- 
ished. Composed chiefly of iron, with olivine 
filling the sponge-like pores. (W.) 2,061 
196 Thin slab, polished. The central portion for a 
width of about 5 cm. is solid metal, but on either 
side the mass is porous, the pores being filled with 
olivine. (W.) 1,248 
197 Full-sized_ slab, polished, showing a sponge-like 
mass of iron, with olivine filling the cavities. 
See Plate 1V, Fig. 1. (K.) 2,048 
198 Similar to No. 197, but thicker. Some of the olivine 
nodules are beautifully transparent and highly 
refracting. (K.) 8,117 
199 *Smaller piece, similar to No. 197. (Kx.) an 
200 466 pound mass, entire. The form is flattened, 
somewhat heart-shaped. The surface is covered 
with pittings, and considerably oxidized. The 
grains of olivine are readily discernible over the 
surface. See Plate IV, Fig. 2. (K.) {218,847 
201 *Full-sized slab, showing structure like No. 197. 
(K. ) 5,895 
202 18 pound mass, entire. Form, hemispheroidal, the 
surface covered with pittings. Structure porous, 
pores filled with olivine. See Plate IV, Fig. 3.
